Ebbsfleet boss Dennis Kutrieb believes his side are showing signs of getting used to the intensity of National League football.
As the Fleet expected, there’s been a marked improvement in the quality of opposition. Ebbsfleet have already faced different challenges but they sit ninth after 10 games having made a solid start to the season, picking up a point at Woking on Tuesday night having lost narrowly at home to title favourites Chesterfield last Saturday. “You could see the intensity at Woking and on Saturday against Chesterfield from the opponent - they don’t stop running,” said Kutrieb. “We had a really fit squad and we could put more on Woking after 60 minutes.
That’s what you need to do week in, week out - match the intensity and be able to put something on in the last 30 minutes of games.
We need to make sure that we’re on top of that. “Every team in this league has an idea and a clue, it’s not just playing off the cuff.
