James Tarkowski reflects on the current league situation:

“You’d have to be living in a box [to not pay attention to the league table],” Tarkowski accepts. “But I don’t put too much focus on it. I try to focus more on the way we perform and the points we are going to pick up. If we do our job, then there’s no need to worry about anyone else.

We put in a good performance on Monday and got a point from it. We always want to win games, but in that one, we will take a point after being down to 10 men for a while. There’s desire, hard work, commitment and togetherness in the team. They are important factors and that’s something the manager has put a massive emphasis on recently. It was on show during Monday night’s game”. [EFC]
