Shrewsbury Town boss Paul Hurst is demanding his players tighten up defensively as they look to climb the League One table.
A crucial 5-3 win at Crawley Town at the weekend saw Town leapfrog their relegation zone rivals and move up to 21st place in the division. However, head coach Hurst is acutely aware that his side are conceding too many goals, and their goals-against column is the second worst in the division so far this season.
And speaking after Town’s win at Crawley on Saturday, Hurst said: “I heard their manager talking about them pre-game and his philosophy. He was saying if they need to score six, then they need to score six. “I felt like we ran alongside people a lot. We do not try to influence them. They might have the ball and think they are in control but you still have to get tight to people.
