Agree. Underwhelming to say the least. Building a squad with league one players looking to step up. Brilliant if it pays off. I'm sceptical. We need some proven experience. A midfield version of stearman.

CW will no doubt be picking targets that he believes can make the step up and whilst that remains to be seen, CW has to be given the benefit of the doubt. He certainly has my support as he's been a revelation since his arrival

You say that you agree with LS&T, but surely Leonard would be a League One player looking to step up wouldn't he?

It is my belief that every team is made up of players are are just right for this league, some who are actually better and should be in the leagues above and others who should be in the leagues below. The actual combination determines where the team finishes in the league, so a team may have one player who has the skill to play in a higher league but the fact that the other 10 should be playing in a lower league means that the team will get relegated. Surely it is far better to buy a league 1 player who is on league 1 wages who should be playing in the Championship rather than a Premier League player who is on Premier League wages but should be in the Championship. This is the difference between United and Wednesday, we are after the League 1 players who should be in the Championship and we are paying League 1 prices whereas Wednesday are paying Premier League prices for players who are no better.

U's choose Lundstram as skipper
John Lundstram is the new captain of Oxford United.
The 22-year-old midfielder takes over the captain’s armband from Jake Wright and told us:
“I’m massively proud to be given the armband. I’ve captained teams in the youth set up for Everton and England and always enjoyed the responsibility. I think it helps my game in some ways but it’s also about the other lads around you. We have a lot of players who have been captains at other clubs and I’m sure when we all get out on the pitch we will all be looking to communicate and help each other.
“I’ve learnt a lot from Jake over the last year. People don’t see the other things he did around the club and the way he helped other people. I will definitely take that on board. I’m really looking forward to it now and can’t wait to lead the team out for the first time.”
Michael Appleton said
“Lunny is still only young but he is a natural leader and all the credentials you need to be a very good captain. I think we have a lot of strong characters in the squad who will all be important, but LUnny will wear the armband and be the skipper.”
