Charlton Greg Docherti captain is eager to quickly put the defeat on Saturday near Birmingham city of Birmingham behind him.
Addicks were first beaten at seven, as the first -half hit of Jay Stansfield was enough to decide the game.
The southern Londoners enjoyed more than the ball after the interval, but were trying to imagine a moment of quality to take something from the meeting.
Charlton fell to seventh in the table in League 1 after losing in the second city.
Skipper Docherti said, “It was narrow. Narrow defeat. Never lose a nice game. We had opportunities, we just didn’t have this killer today and that’s the disappointing thing. We give ourselves to create, but today we do not have this instinct of the killers and this last bit. Birmingham had all behind the ball in the last 10-15 minutes, they brought two central backs, defending their lives. We allowed them to see the game, too many stupid fouls and we were really good at that.
“This is just a training curve for many people and for us as a team. We came here to a team that has many expectations and they must continue and win this league. We can get a loan for this, but we always want more. The prospect is that we have been in a really good start and put ourselves in a really good position, entering the last 15 games of the season.
“We could have the ball a little more and we could be a little more patient. Something we are good at as the team bounces back. I think this defeat is different from when we lost in Roter, today there were many positives to take. Of course, you can learn from moments, but today we have faced a good country and showed that we are a good country. We have been supported by a brilliant end and they are really behind us, now they enter the last 15 games of the season.
“Now we have a week to build up to Exeter and Barnesi to follow, so we’re in a good place. We were put in a brilliant position from the Christmas period onwards. We will have bumps along the way, it will not always be easy, but 15 games we will go is looking forward to it.
“There will be so many twists. This is such a narrow league, today you are looking at the table, how much it is swinging. You are one victory and one defeat by another team. We put ourselves in a fantastic position forward. Today’s disappointing, we never have points on the board, but now we are fully focused on returning points to the board and in the right direction. “
