Oxford gifted a freebie from close range but shanked horribly wide

Not being funny but that all started from Hiwula when he couldn’t be arsed to chase a ball and just hoped their right back let it go out for a throw. Chase everything!!!

We've got no change of pace in the team, Jobello is hugging the touchline

Does my head in that 433 we need Hiwula & Jobello playing inside closer to Godden and full backs bombing on

So called sell out. View of SBA from my home seat. If they moved that yellow divider and used the front rows there’s an extra 300 seats. Sellout my arse!

Shipley poor start for me

Looks like Oxford have deliberately set up to be narrow out of possession in order to protect against Hiwula and Jobello cutting inside, squeeze the midfield and leave Godden isolated, because they are leaving so much space out wide. Need to either get the fullbacks overlapping more or maybe even swap Hiwula and Jobello over for a few minutes so they can beat their fullbacks on the strong foot. At the moment Hiwula and Jobello are playing on the touchline and Oxford are getting all the possession.

I know Dabo left that guy open earlier but he’s my favourite player I think. Great scrappy physical full back and works hard. Good going forward. Can’t wait to see him develop looks a really good signing

This was one of the games I was at last season. I thought Shipley was poor but he scored and was brought down for the penalty

We seem a bit sleepy in defence today.

Jobello just had three players on him near the corner and Westbrooke shyed away and didn’t support him at all. Like he didn’t want it. Feel like he has no confidence

Soft yellow for Shipley there for a challenge way softer than mccallum getting chopped

Sounds like we can’t hold possession,we sound like we’re being out numbered...system problem ?

Frustrating he ignored a clear foul on McCallum and then booked Shipley for next to nothing.
