Some thoughts:
- Fans in the ground really do make a difference.
- Just magnificent from Jack Stevens. Motm by a country mile.
- That chance just before half time, I know McGuane's effort wasn't great but it shouldn't have gone to him. Matty Taylor should have scored that himself, a simple toe punt to the side of the keeper and I reckon he'd have scored.
- That said what an excellent finish by Matty Taylor from a fantastic free kick by Liam Kelly. A lot of credit goes to Mous on the set pieces as we really are looking far more dangerous from them.
- Good finish by Jordan Obita as well. One of a number of good moves around that time.
- We had some chances from good bits of team play in the 2nd half on the break but didn't keep the ball well in the 2nd half. This applies to the 2nd half of the 1st half as well as we became sloppy with passes and clearances. Credit to Wimbledon, some of this was down to their press but plenty wasn't and all the outfield players had their moments doing this.
- If you are going to clear the ball out of the box, please don't pass it to an Oxford player on the edge of the box closely surrounded by 3 or 4 Wimbledon players. We did that too much today and invited additional pressure. Also when punting the ball out, please try to do it over head height.
- That said there was some good defending in amongst the panicky moments.
