Diangana must be brilliant in training that’s all I can say

There are plenty of decent substitutes in the event of any of the starting XI not being on their game. The key is to have the confidence to make the change/s sooner rather than later.

1-0 Excellent strike by Grant!

Get in! Beautifully taken by Grant, good work by Račic before.

COYB!!!

Superb strike. Looking good. Good half time talk and professionally see it out hopefully. I think racic has shown what he’s got and maybe we’ll see even more if he gets more game time. Lovely deft pass for Grant. Diangana needs to practice shooting. He’s had a couple of chances but just didn’t hit it.

Good performance 1st half, going forward and direct. If Diangana and Fellows had taken their shots we could’ve been further ahead.

Much better from us against an Oxford side that are difficult to beat at home. Luckily for us though they haven't learnt from Millwall and both Grant and Fellows getting some joy down either wing. Bit of luck also when Brown put his free header over but over all we seem on top of the game. Harris looks threatening for them though so be happier if we can get a second goal early on second half. If we keep pressing then I'm sure we will create more chances.
