Newport County Coach Nelson Jardim Discusses Team’s Growth and Future Potential

Newport County head coach Nelson Jardim has expressed that his team is “growing” and indicated that there is “more to come” from them. This assessment follows County’s recent goalless draw (0-0) on Saturday, where they secured a point away against League Two promotion contenders Notts County. This result marked the team’s second successive 0-0 draw, prompting Jardim to state: “We just have to keep making sure we keep building on this.” Jardim further commented on the team’s defensive solidity, noting, “It was another clean sheet and we’ve had a couple of them now.” Addressing previous criticism, he added, “We’ve been criticised for not being consistent and compact but you can see these boys are working hard.” The coach highlighted the collective development, asserting, “It’s about us growing together and no matter who comes on they’re ready to perform and understand the ideas and philosophy that we want to play.” He concluded by reaffirming the team’s progress and future potential: “We showed today that we are growing.” “Yes, we’re not at the level I think we should be yet but I can tell you there’s more to come.”
