Woodards joined Crewe Alexandra from Exeter City in January 2007

Crewe's players have had their ability and belief restored by new manager Gudjon Thordarson, according to Alex defender Danny Woodards.

Crewe have won five of their last six matches to move out of the relegation zone for the first time in six months.

Woodards told BBC Radio Stoke: "There's a good atmosphere and the manager has done wonders with us.

"We've always had the squad, we've just needed that belief, and now that we've got it, we'll take on anyone."

After a comprehensive 4-0 win at Brighton on Saturday, Crewe face another of their relegation rivals, Carlisle, at the Alexandra Stadium on Tuesday.

Woodards added: "We think we can win every game. We're getting the luck now, we're playing well and we're scoring goals.

"We've brought a lot of teams into the mix with us now, and we just want to get as many points as we can."
