Donervon Daniels: Walsall starting too slow
Donervon Daniels insists Walsall need to get to the root of why they are conceding goals so early in games.
Walsall fell behind for the eighth time this term in Saturday’s 4-0 drubbing at Sutton United, and conceded the opening goal within six minutes.
Sutton condemned Walsall to their heaviest defeat of the Mat Sadler era.
The Saddlers have made a habit of conceding first, and Daniels has called on them to start reversing that trend.
Daniels said: “It’s tough because we’ve spoken about it as a group, we’ve spoken about it in individual meetings but I feel like it’s individual mistakes that then bleeds into the group.
“Then we begin to think, how do we get out of this? We are going to have to eradicate those situations because we are giving ourselves a really tough uphill battle.”
