Walsall Football Club summer signing Jordan Cook has spoken to the press ahead of this evening's Johnstone's Paint Trophy Second Round match with Rochdale, and has discussed the squad's desire to gain revenge on the Dale for their 4-0 demolition of the Saddlers earlier in the season.
Speaking to the Express & Star, Jordan said; “The lads have been speaking about this game and we feel we have
a point to prove now, especially against a team who have beaten us 4-0.
“Obviously, there is a personal aspect for me coming back and
knowing I have a chance to play more games – I just want to get on the team
sheet and score.
“But for the team itself when you get beaten 4-0, it hurts. You
could see afterward when you looked at the lads how much it hurt them. We
are just looking to go and get some payback.”
Jordan continued; “We have taken five points from three games and played a couple of really good teams.

“We have shown we can match those
sides. I think in general you can see the team shape starting to come in now
and we are pressing high and doing what we do best, instead of looking at the
opposition and what they do.
I think it is only a matter of
time before we start beating teams by three or four.”
