Walsall manager Dean Smith has spoken to club journalist Daniel Briggs ahead of Saturday afternoon's Sky Bet League 1 clash with Wigan Athletic, and has discussed his pride at his side's recent defensive solidity.
Speaking via Saddlers.co.uk, Smith said; “Defensively we’re doing really well. We’ve conceded the fewest goals in the division and we’re scoring goals at the other end of the pitch, too.
“We’re keeping it tight defensively and when you do that it gives you an opportunity to go and win games. We’ve always taken pride in our organisation. Our defensive record last season – until the final game – was very good as well.
“It’s easier to stop the opposition scoring than to score goals yourself - that’s why you pay so much for goalscorers. But we’ve always been organised.”
