Walsall manager Dean Smith has spoken to the club's official website ahead of this weekend's Sky Bet League 1 clash with Barnsley, and has insisted that his side are up for the game, and are keen to build on the mid-week win over Yeovil Town.
Speaking to Saddlers.co.uk, Smith said; "We go into the game looking to follow-up from Tuesday's victory at Yeovil Town. I thought we bounced back well from our previous two defeats and could have been four or five goals to the good at half-time.
"We were excellent and played some good football. In fact, they had to change their formation to cope with us, which is a great compliment.
"They got a bit of a lift as the second half went on and it became something of an end-to-end encounter where we had Richard O'Donnell to thank for some impressive saves.
"It was important to show a positive reaction to the previous game; I asked for energy and enthusiasm and got it. To have 28 attempts on goal in an away game is fantastic.
"It was pleasing that we had threats from all over the team and now we look to take that into Saturday's game at Barnsley.
"It's a tough place to go, there is no question about that. They are a club that should be higher than where they currently are; they've got some good players and we know that if will be a difficult one for us.
"They've won their last four games in a row, so they will be in high spirits, but we are ready for the challenge.
"From our point of view it is about finding a level of consistency and following on from our last game. We've got good players here and they have to merit the shirt. We are trying to find that momentum that will see us kick-on up the table.
"Thank you for you support at Yeovil. I will look forward to seeing you at Oakwell."
