Ryan Trevitt has given his thoughts as the Grecians prepare to take on Northampton Town at St James Park on Saturday, looking to respond to last weekend's defeat.
The City squad have spent the last week in La Manga, Spain for warm climate training and Trevitt also spoke of the benefit of the camp as the players prepare for the final 15 league games of the season.
"We did some different things - the bike up the mountain really brought us together - and double sessions every day. It was really beneficial.
"It is a really close-knit group, and everyone has really settled in well, and this felt like a chance for us to treat it like a mini pre-season. It was a reset for us.
"And now we're back here we just have to smash these last 15 games and try to accumulate as many points as possible."
