Bournemouth boss Gary O'Neil refused to take questions on his future after defeat to Brighton.
It marked an eighth game in succession without victory for Cherries since O'Neil became permanent head coach, losing seven.
Asked how he assesses the situation, with Cherries now slipping to 19th in the Premier League table, O'Neil told BBC Radio Solent: There's a long way to go. Same again next week, let's try and win a football match."
Asked if he is confident he will get the time to turn the club's form around, O'Neil added: I'm not interested in answering questions on my future, I'm fully comfortable with the situation as it is."
Speaking later in his press conference, assessing the contest against the Seagulls, O'Neil said: We should have got something out of the game.
I thought the performance was good and I'm disappointed for the lads that they don't take any points.
I think we kept Brighton at bay. Of course, they dominate the ball, that's the way they play.
They create some chances, of course. They're a good side, but I thought we were a real threat.
I thought we arrived in attacking areas a lot of times during the match.
My only criticism from there would be we have to score at least one goal from the situations that we create.
And today was one of those days where we didn't quite manage it."
