Christian Fuchs says there have been “honest words” shared along with his Newport County gamers within the aftermath of the Exiles’ 2-0 loss to Crawley Town.
The defeat leaves Newport only one place and one level above the League Two relegation zone with 5 matches left to play this season.
“We had quite a few honest words in the changing room,” mentioned supervisor Fuchs. “The boys are honest with themselves, we definitely believe in them.
“We want to take a look at ourselves within the mirror and see what we did mistaken as a result of I do not suppose it was a recreation that we should always lose. It was a recreation the place our errors have been very expensive.”
He added: “It’s a season of missed alternatives and that is sadly the case once more.”
Newport thought they had taken the lead shortly after the half hour mark at Rodney Parade when Bobby Kamwa netted, although the effort was disallowed for a handball by the 26-year-old.
And Harry McKirdy, who had a loan spell with Newport in 2019, netted twice in quick succession in the second half for the visitors who continued their improvement under new boss Colin Kazim-Richards to ease their own relegation fears.
However, Fuchs remains confident his side can respond to the setback with a more positive showing when they return to action at promotion-chasing Notts County on Monday (15:00 BST).
“I believe first half we performed respectable soccer. We did not create the quantity of probabilities that we might have and sadly it was handball from Bobby Kamwa after we went 1-0 up,” he mentioned.
“The means among the boys approached the second half was simply not adequate.”
But the Austrian added: “I’m believing 100% within the staff. Usually after we have a efficiency like this, they roll up their sleeves and go once more.”
