After recording their third win in the last four games, Lawrie Sanchez has publically praised his young Barnet side following their 2-0 victory at Bristol Rovers on Saturday. The win moves the north Londoners out of the relegation places leaving Sanchez thrilled with the upturn in fortunes. Speaking to BBC London Sanchez said, “It’s been a team thing we’ve had an infusion of fresh blood that has inspired and installed a little bit more belief. We’ve stopped conceding goals which was the major problem we’ve had all season.”
The Barnet boss has pinpointed the recent improvements have partially been due to the Bees playing away from Underhill. He continued, “We’ve been away from home, we’re nervous at home our home performances haven’t been good enough, anybody that has watched our away games, that is three away wins on the spin.” As well as two away league wins, the recent run has seen Barnet progress into the second round of the FA Cup after successfully negotiating a tough looking trip to Blue Square bet Premier side Southport.
The most pleasing factor for the former Northern Ireland manager seemed to be the introduction of the new, young players which have strengthened a previously depleted squad. He added, “Excellent performance, excellent result, even more so considering the three young lads playing in the back four. It was a big ask for them.”
With the Bees recent progress away from home, Sanchez is fully aware of the importance of transporting their positive performances on the road back to Underhill, as the Londoners look to pull clear of the relegation zone. He concluded, “We now are coming to a series of home games, we’ve got a home game in the cup and a home game against Macclesfield. Our best performances have been on the road we now need to transfer that into some sort of home form.”
