Dave Edwards: Shrewsbury need results to give fans renewed confidence
Shrewsbury are in a group of games they need to capitalise on, with a tough run fast approaching.
The defeat to Bristol Rovers was disappointing and what happened at the end of the game with the fans leaving the stadium will be the narrative, but I felt with their performance they were the better team.
Especially in the opening 45, they were the ones creating chances. The positive you need to take from that is that they are getting into good areas on the pitch.
It it more about the finishing and the final action that is letting Matt Taylor’s side down at the moment.
There are positives to take and they could have been a couple goals in front if they had a little more devilment in front of goal and really committed to those final actions, whether it’s a cross, a run or a finish. At the moment they’re not quite clinical enough. The big positive was Max Mata came in and he linked up really well at times with Dan Udoh in that first half.
He played in the pocket around Dan Udoh and they dovetailed really well.
