Viktor Johansson says Stoke were not on the same level as opponents Queens Park Rangers after suffering a 1-0 loss at Loftus Road.
Stoke City goalkeeper Viktor Johansson says the Potters were not on the same level as Queens Park Rangers after suffering a 1-0 loss at Loftus Road on Saturday.
The defeat, their second in three league games, was not enough to see the Potters drop out of the top two but it has left them four points adrift of league leaders Middlesbrough.
Johansson had kept the Rs at bay in the second half with two excellent stops before Harvey Vale struck the winner on 75 minutes.
"We weren't near enough on their levels," Johansson told BBC Radio Stoke.
"We trained well all week. Different solutions to different problems, we just couldn't find it.
"It's frustrating. We've got so much more in us, we just couldn't get the energy."
