“Whenever you’re in the game, the mood does improve, but one thing I’ve been impressed with is, this group doesn’t get carried away whether we win or lose. It’s about measuring our performance. The form right now is perfect. Now, we’re unbeaten in four games, and we want to build our momentum going into the final five or six games, and that’s what we’ve put together over the last four games.
