Paul Warne is urging his Derby County players to stay positive despite recent losses and focus on their upcoming match against Cardiff City
This weekend, they face Cardiff City, who are just one spot above them. To make matters worse, they lost two players to hamstring injuries in the last match. Kane Wilson and Dajaune Brown are out, but there’s a silver lining. Eiran Cashin might return, and Ryan Nyambe along with David Ozoh could also be back in action.
Warne feels good about the players’ energy levels but knows they need a mental boost. He said they shouldn’t dwell on their bad luck. “You need to snap out of it,” he emphasized. A win against Cardiff would definitely help lift their spirits.
He believes there’s not much difference between the teams in the league. Warne respects Sunderland but thinks they were on par with Derby. “You have to beat the teams around you,” he noted.
Both teams are eager for a win, especially with new players in their squads. Warne is hopeful for three points, but he’s aware they’ve said that before. They need to perform well for the entire match, something they struggled with last time out.
