"I feel let down – not just me but much more the players, his team-mates because we are a club who likes to treat everybody very respectfully," Koeman said.
"You have responsibilities as a player to the fans, to your team-mates, to the board, to the technical staff.
"That is painful. It is so unnecessary what happened today. I am angry about what happened today. I am angry about players who are not focussed and not concentrating on the club. That is my worst disappointment of today."
