Inigo Calderon previews Wycombe Wanderers test

Bristol Rovers have been firing on all cylinders in recent weeks and a lot of that comes down to the impact of Calderon after his arrival on Boxing Day. Since his appointment the Spainard has managed four wins, one draw and four defeats from nine matches and has steered the club from being three points clear of the drop zone to a much more comfortable gap of seven.

Speaking to Bristol Live, he admitted he needed to change the culture of the club and explained he was surprised by some of the negativity around the training ground, he explained: “I think it was one of the keys for me because obviously when I came, I was just watching previous games and I knew more or less the things I had to do. But it's true that when I arrived to the training ground and even to the games, I was a bit surprised negatively about the atmosphere, the negativity, even sadness.

“So that was something that I didn't expect. Obviously you expect something that is not working, but it was quite too much. So for me, one of the most important things to change was that, you know, and that’s not an easy one because it's not a book or a recipe so you can say you have to do that.

“No. It's try to build up with everyone, with the staff with the players and I think if you go to the training ground now it is a nice atmosphere. Nice feeling. Obviously, that comes as well with the results but for me, the mental part, the passion, these things, they are really important to perform better.”

Ahead of kick-off last weekend’s hero Chris Martin has been hailed as a player the continues to get even better in the twilight years of his career.
