"Now we must be stronger than ever and think about only the league. Of course, all the people think cups are nice, and they are right because they are an opportunity to impress. But I know all the people here in Ipswich want Premiership football more." he told the East Anglian Daily Times
"Who knows? Perhaps it is now better we are out of the Cup. We only have the league to concentrate on and we can do that now."
Speaking of why he felt the defeat happened, the number nine with 12 goals to his name this season said: "The second goal made it very difficult for us to come back. It was always going to be hard to score three goals in 30 minutes. Our keeper had the bad luck with the goal, but that's football."
Whereas recentley Joe Royle has criticised his strikers, Pablo felt that the Sunderland defence and the lack of chances created from the midfield was the problem: "We had some good chances ourselves and controlled lots of the game, but we should have created more and should have got more chances." Pablo continued.
"All defences are strong and Sunderland were no different. But whether it is me and Shefki, or other strikers, we can do it. But today it was hard."
