Mansfield Town midfielder Harry Charsley full of praise for Nigel Clough
Midfielder Harry Charsley praised new boss Nigel Clough for putting the confidence back into Stags.
Mansfield beat Forest Green Rovers at the weekend to make it three wins in a row.
And Charsley believes Clough, who took charge of his first Mansfield league game at Forest Green, deserves plenty of credit.
“Everyone’s feeling a lot more confident and we’re starting to turn good performances into three points,” he said.
“He (Clough) hasn’t overfilled us with information, he’s just let us play with a bit of confidence and he’s got the respect of the changing room. Whenever we go out there we’ve just got to play 100 per cent because that’s what he’ll want.
“He wants you to pass forward, play forward and [do it] together as a team. Defend together, attack together and I think today we did that today.”
Charsley scored his third goal of the season in the win at the New Lane and is hopeful he can bag plenty more.
“I’m happy to start converting chances into goals now,” he said.
“I had a lot of chances early in the season but now I’m starting to finish them so hopefully I can carry that on.”
Charsley also praised Stags for digging deep to get the weekend win.
“It wasn’t easy but the lads managed to deal with it,” he added.
"We headed balls away, lots of clearances and Jordan [Bowery] held it up, which really helped. Of course, it wasn’t easy.”
