Watching the first couple of games it’s clear how much we missed Saka at the end of last year. Also, you have to say congrats to the scouting/recruitment unit at the time we signed Wright, Simms, Sakamoto and Van Ewijk. All summer 23 additions.

His pace gets him out of bother when his positional sense defensively is off. But he’s such an athlete he’s just everywhere. Throw into the mix his relationship with Saka and our right side is phenomenal.

Wright was fantastic against Oxford. After a slow start he was just as good last year. He is, along with Ewijk and Sheaf a player who would be the first name on every championship teamsheet

If we’d have drawn 2-2 I’d still have been happy with that. Attacking wise we were brilliant to watch and that was a step up on the Yok and Hamer days. Oxford got 2 weird goals. We got two excellent and 1 well taken ones. I have a feeling that may be how this season goes. You score 3, we’ll score 4.

On balance no. 9 times from 10 we win that 4/5 - 0. Them scoring two freaky goals from three or four attacks is not a major worry.

Dovin 5? No chance with either goal and his distribution was excellent

Hindsight brigade versus ridiculous in play knee jerk reaction brigade. It’s an emotive game but the in game criticism is other worldly.

I thought Lati was very good. In Wright, MvE, Saka and Rudoni we have some of the best players in the division

Crikey, there’s some rot on here. We’ve absolutely battered Oxford and played sublime football. I know it’s frustrating if we aren’t winning but come on, that was superb. We’ll destroy a lot of teams this year. Wright, MVE, Saka, Binks superb. Also Lati had a solid game. I had my doubts but he...

Fantastic half of football. Our right flank is exceptional. Wright a cut above and Rudoni is special. More please

Latibeaudiere is fine as a defender. Just scares the hell out of me when he’s in possession. Torp lucky to start for me.

Well we’re not getting a defensive and an attacking midfielder in. I think you’ll find Rudoni is that man with Torp and Allen next in line. Defensive option is far more likely (and needed) for me.

All time top 11 is difficult. Started going up late 70’s so a big chunk was in different leagues. But just on quality alone mine would have to be: Ogrizovic Nilsson Peake Babb Pearce Bennett McAllister Robson Gallacher (wrong wing I know) Regis Dublin

Well we’ve had him in our team for the last two years and been in and around top 6. He’s part of a squad. He will start now and again.

Crikey, Allen is taking some stick here. He’s a perfectly good championship midfielder.

So: Wright for EMC Kitching for Thomas Eccles for Allen ??

What do folks think. Dovin or Wilson?

Understood. I’ve now gone from not panicking to not panicking.

To be frank this is getting ludicrous. The window is still open. The loan window longer still. Sheaf is still here. We were pushing for play offs last year and have strengthened the squad. There is obviously activity going on at the club. Why are we so desperate for instant news and activity.

Yes, Nilsson and Borrows for me. Thomas also up there.
