Turner delighted with victory
Graham Turner has told the Footballers Channel that in the three games so far this season Hereford United have played extremely well.
"We have scored a lot of goals and we have played extremely well and that's the pleasing thing," he said. "It's never easy at the start of the season. Everybody is fired up, everybody thinks they are going to have a good season.
"Morecambe are a well fancied team, second best team in the League last season. To have got a win in the style that we have done is a terrific acheivement for us.
"I think there was some terrific passing movements. It was quite creative at times and that speaks volumes for the standard of the Conference. There are a lot of full-time teams in there who work very hard at the game and we are no exception. What we have done on the training ground we are now seeing in matches and we have got some talented players. Not the biggest, not the strongest but some talented players and that's in evidence at the moment."
Picking out players, Turner added: "Ben Smith is a forward running mid-field player, eye for a goal and he has started the season off in fine style. But there were so many good performances it is difficult to pick out individuals. It was a magnificent team performance."
Turning to Rob Purdie, he continued: "He's got terrific technique, great endurance, wants to work. He's got good pace and I think he's got the confidence. He's had a man of the match award. All those sorts of things do the world of good for a young player.
"We expected a tough game and I felt they might come at us second-half but the way we defended did not allow them too many clear-cut chances. The game in the end was not easy for us but fairly comfortable the longer the game went on."
