Quality performance tonight controlled it from start to finish. Beadle is a level above Eastwood so much more comfy. Mceachran and Harris excellent. Rodrigues looked better tonight. Moore and Thorniley have a great partnership at the back. Couple more in and we’re ready

Wheres the Des out brigade?? To have that many injuries. Makeshift formation today. Unreal performance. Get a few back and sign a few well be right up there in play offs. Dominated the game after the equaliser. Smyth MOTM, Harris and Brannagan unreal again!
My team for tomorrow. Kioso starts for me. Cannot continue with Long at RB in this league. Phillips starts for me, experience away from home will be vital. El Mizouni in from the start. Make the midfield a little more solid. But not against Ruben starting.
Unlucky today. Im happy to lose like that as long as we give. 100%. Didnt take our chances. 6th place still there for us. Play like that and we will be close.
@CAFCofficial
Oxford fan. Should sack this man full of excuses. Not sure on the handball. But the countless times the ref missed awful challenges from your players was a joke. We deserved it. You didn’t really create anything. Thought you’re number 4 Dobson was excellent. Only one who cared
That Pass from Rodrigues yesterday in behind to Mills is the one the best passes I’ve ever seen. Rodrigues is improving game after game. Involved in all of our goals. What a player
What a performance. Long and Brown have been reincarnated I swear. Mcguane absolutely outstanding! Negru is the bollocks. Hopefully Brownes injury isn’t bad. 1/2 more options in attack and another defender and we could easily get top 6. Coyy

No more ins apparently. I’d happily take that. Think we’ve added quality to the first 11 and got some great depth on the bench. I think everyone we’ve signed is able to start ( maybe not woltman ) but Manning and Waldron have done some bloody good business. Some squad depth
#oufc
I was humbled today was i said our back line would struggle. To a man everyone was brilliant. Was one of Long and Browns best games in the shirt. Other than Brannagan. Vaulks, Rodrigues and Goodrham massive stand outs.
Gotta get this chant going surely “ we’ve got super Liam Manning he knows exactly what we need Negru at the back Harris in attack Oxford going up the football league “

@Joe_Citrone
Absolutely agree. Some fans haven’t got a clue. Those subs they bought on were unreal. Our bench wouldn’t make many league two clubs. We were out on our feet all game. You have to give Des the transfer window. If we had our main squad tonight I’d of fancied us to win that.
@swissyellow
We’ve got Mcguane Marcus Mcguane I just don’t think you understand. He’s Liam Mannings Man , he’s better than Zidane , we’ve got Marcus Mcguane
No expectations tonight. Coventry lost their first game but are a good side and have some great players. All we can ask for is 100% effort from min 1-90 thats what every fan asks for. Lets go 💛
Great result thought everyone played amazing! Joe Bennett a unsung hero in this side. Same team at the weekend! Stick in and around it until lincoln and that becomes a huge game
Need a chant for beadle big time, was thinking James Beadle always believe in your soul , you got the power to know you’re indestructible always believe in James Beadle. Kinda works when you play it in your head.
#oufc
What I’d go with for tomorrow. Back 4 let long tuck in. Leigh can bomb forward. Murphy deserves a start for me. So I’d probably bring him in. Let Harris start as needs to get back up to match play as hasn’t had a game in the league for a while. Lot more tougher than the EFL Cup
Gonna start doing player ratings again. Only done them last season. So if we turn shit I’ll stop🤣
Beadle 7
Stevens 7
Long 5
Moore 9
Brown 5
Leigh 10
Mcguane 8
Brannagan 7
Goodrham 5
Rodrigues 8
Bodin 6
Murphy 7
Odonkor 5
Beadle
Long
Moore
Thorniley
Brown
Mcguane
Brannagan
Murphy
Rodrigues
Edwards
Bodin
What we saying for next week? Time for Murphy to see what he can do from the start. Mills was poor Saturday in the final third. Can’t change the back 4 after back to back clean sheets.
#oufc
Great Performance tonight until the last 15/20. I know the game was won but don’t wanna just stroll around. We could of scored more. Back 5 unreal again! Stevens best game in the shirt. Greg Leigh for top goalscorer?🤣
Thats Mills out for season. Along with edwards and browne probably. Leaves Goodrham and Murphy as natural wingers. Definitely need 2 wingers now. 2 strikers. Maybe can use harris as a winger. Need a CM cant watch Mceachran or Henry for much longer. 3/4 in by next week!
Everyone was poor today. But thought Negru and Thorniley were awful. Mcguane not far behind. Murphy looked bright when came on. Rodrigues moaning all game needs to stop. Would drop Bodin in the 10 and play Murphy or Edwards Tuesday. Harris is awful. Leigh and Moore a big miss.
An absolute shocking performance from the ref but let’s not kid ourselves they came playing dirty and we let them do it. Didn’t play great at all and the Subs were too late
Summary on the game. Ref obviously shocking. Thought we played alright but need to start converting our chances when 1-0 up.
Long isn’t good enough if we wanna go up. Brown was average every time he got the ball just hoofed it. I wanna see Negru and Thorniley back in the side.
Thought was solid today. Back 4 bar Long was decent. Rodrigues and Bodin okay but vs a better side that midfield gets ripped to shreads. Dale and Murphy carrying us at the moment.
@ManningFutbol
Mark Harris needs to start performing as well, runs the line and works hard but needs goal. Odonkor needs a loan. Unfair to rely on him. If we wanna go up we definitely need a striker. Really fed up of Long too how he’s got such high stats I’ll never know. Offers nothing
@southoxox
Can’t wait till he scores. Thought Goodrham was poor today. Murphy is close to a start. But he’s good to bring off the bench vs a tired defence.
A solid point. Murphy should of stayed on. 442 didnt work imo with ruben shipped out wide. Missed Mcguane to let Brannagan and Matete get forward more. Onto a big game Tuesday
@TimWalkerOUFC
Harris was our best player today. Was everywhere. His assist for the first goal was first class and his goal the touch and finish unreal
Much better performance second half. Mceachran and Harris excellent. Negru is a nailed on starter for me. Wins everything. Still not comfortable with Long at RB. Will get picked off by a decent side. Hopefully gives us some confidence into our next 2. Would take 2/3 points.
Alan Browne is a free agent after Preston confirm he's turned down a new contract.
Personally feel he could be a great fit for Swansea. Bags of experience and really good data in midfield. Would balance Grimes really well and drive us forward.
High Wages only issue.
What a team! Didn’t play great second half but what I love is the grit and determination we have. Mcguane outstanding absolutely run the show. Goodrham too!. Leigh looks like a great buy !

@andywilmer
It really don’t stink of KR. This time last year he was on holiday trying to save his marriage. I’d say the strategy to our signings have been great. 3 free signings who will be on good wages and 2 loans who look the real deal. Manning will be getting deals done in advance

@BWFC1874
🤣🤣we battered you 5-0 a few weeks ago we are barely a park the bus side. We had to play dirty in the second half Wednesday. All teams would of done it in that position. Wembley pitch suits us too with our front 3
Would really wanna see a 3421 or a 3412 deployed. I just don’t like the 4231 it never seems to work. A 3 at the back would suit us so much more. We can forget about Long and Brown as starters. Rodrigues starts so it’s out of Murphy or Browne. I’d rather Murphy if he cares.
Tonight is the night. Win or lose what a great season its been. No matter what league we are in next season we have made so much progress in the last 2/3 months. Just go out there and give 100% thats all we ask for as fans. Up the fucking ox💛
