MANSFIELD skipper Jonathan D'Laryea admitted some of the players were ashamed by their performances at Wrexham.

The former Manchester City trainee D'Laryea says he and the rest of the side know they have to improve.

"The lads are gutted with how they played. A lot of us are embarrassed," he said. "When you have been beaten 2-0 after being outplayed by a better team you can accept it more.

"But when you have just been out-fought then there are really no excuses.

"The resolve wasn't there after we went 1-0 down. We should have had the mentality to push on and fight our way back."

D'Laryea was disappointed the Stags conceded another two goals on their travels.

He said: "It's hard to put your finger on why we played so poorly. It just seemed that some of the players, myself included, were not at it and didn't give 100%.
