“We are very, very close to being a top League One side” – Steve Evans rates Posh side highly heading into a hectic Christmas

Peterborough United manager Steve Evans has insisted he has full confidence in his side as they head into a hectic Christmas period.

Despite currently being on a 10-game unbeaten run, Peterborough United manager Steve Evans has come under criticism from fans for poor results. Out of their last 10 games, The Posh have drawn six times in all competitions and sit in 4th place in the League One table.

The chasing pack are closing in on Peterborough United, but they remain only four points behind 2nd placed Luton Town. Posh boss Evans insists that he has full faith in his side, despite multiple individual errors dragging them down in recent weeks.

“I have no doubts we are very, very close to being a top League One side,” Evans told the Peterborough Telegraph. 

“We are maybe one or two players away of making the improvement that will take us from a play-off chasing side to automatic promotion contenders. Lee Tomlin will of course be a great help.

“It would also help if we stopped making so many individual errors that are clearly costing us points.

“It’s not just one or two players either. If that was the case it would be easy to manage. We all make mistakes, but ours are leading to goals being conceded.

“But we are still fourth and we have lost just five games all season. That shows the character we already have in the squad and if we can add some extra quality we will take some stopping. I’m not losing faith with the players I already have though. Far from it.

“I’ve been having long conversations with the chairman every week for a while now. We don’t just discuss players though. We talk about the youth team and the general infrastructure of the club as well. His support has been invaluable since I walked through the door.”
