    Kelly is a class act, a fit kelly in midfield allows us to play better football, the issues are ahead of the midfield and our awful set pieces, powells delivery % into dangerous areas is no way near the levels Evans talked about.

    Yes, agree on both counts. I had been impressed in parts with Kelly from watching him on TV, but in the flesh on Saturday you can see what a high quality player he is. Can only keep em crossed he stays fit as first name on the team sheet for me. Class act.

    And yes, expected great quality from Powell following Evans' build up on hitting a gnat from 12 miles (or summat) but very disappointed with his crossing so far.

    Henry VIII looked quite busy in forward midfield in his brief cameo. Short stocky but mobile, might cause a few probs when deployed up there.

    Not a brilliant game but enjoyed it anyway. I think we're coming together ok and am optimistic we can challenge for play offs if we can get the forwards scoring. But can we??

    Now i know i will get a lot of abuse for this, but here goes........I think Eaves would have done better for us as a back-up No.9, not interested in what he is doing elsewhere, I think he wanted a chance to show everyone what he could do with us.

    Derbs, I have the utmost respect for the vast majority of your posts but boy have you got this one wrong. Have you banged your head or has the medication failed to trip in yet?

    It was the finest peice of work Evo and the board achieved this season, offloading that donkey waste of space. I'll go as far to say he's in my top 3 of most awful players ever to wear a Millers shirt....good riddance.

    You say your not interested in what he's doing elsewhere, well let me provide you with some stats:

    Since moving to Oxford he's had the opportunity to feature in no less than 7 games.
    4 Championship
    2 Cup games
    1 pre season friendly, which when he left us he was supposedly fit.

    Now how many games do you think he's featured in so far for Oxford? I'll tell you......a big fat zero! What's worse he hasn't been named on the bench for a single one of those games and you say we should have kept him.....

    Didn't Eaves go to Northampton, or am I missing something whilst scan-reading this conversation?

    Yes he went to Northampton that's most probably why he hasn't featured for Oxford. I don't think he's played for Northampton either

    I think expecting Oxford to select him is a bit unfair given that he's at Northampton. Any excuse to kick a player.
