6/08/22 - L1: OUFC v Cambridge United

Hope Karl gives him some decent game time

Well done Tyler Goodrham! Watching his goal a couple of times, he took a gamble in taking on the two defenders and won out.

Not being able to follow the game, it sounds like the draw would have been a fair result. Great for us to get off the mark regardless.

Also think Findlay looked good at the back which is a good sugn

Who needs Tyler Morton?!

Centre defence is rock solid.

Good lad. Chuffed for him.

 

[Mad Dog]

Great result, very happy with the 3 points, but let’s not kid ourselves, that was a f*****g appalling performance.

But worldie strike from Goodrahm, well done Tyler!

Big improvement, and some important signings needed though…

 

[IsleofWightYellow]

Stats say we dominated the game… I think we just edged it overall, personally, although a draw would have been a fair result, as would the Derby game

Impressed by bate whwn he came on, has to start based on that. Expected a lot more of murphy tbh. Findlay had a decent game the rest were all below par, especially long and taylor.

I was only listening, so am probably in no position to comment, but "f*****g appalling" is a bit OTT from what I heard on (obviously un-biased!) RadOx commentary.

Clean sheet, no shots on target from Cambridge, last minute winner. Reasons to be cheerful!

I think you're right. On performances we should have had 2 draws. We were a little unlucky last week with a couple of individual errors and this week we were lucky with individual excellence.

Overall, we have one point more than we probably deserve but still early days.

Yes quite a few positives I'd say. Though very nail biting yo get to the 93rd minute!

 

[Uncle Belly]

You've always spoken very highly of Tyler and wasn't sure if you were a family member or not. But if you are you should be exceptionally proud of not only the player he is but also the young man he is becoming.

Thanks Scotch. The clue is in the user name!

Fantastic skill and finish..

Thought Findlay & McGuane were both very good/MOTMs for us (again). Seddon much improved, albeit perhaps because the majority of his game was pressing forward rather than being pinned back. I also thought that was a better game from Taylor - still very little in front of goal but he felt much more involved and it seemed like he was actually a nuisance to play against (versus last week when he was pretty anonymous aside from a couple of touches). Bate looked lightweight but technically very gifted during his brief cameo.

On the flip side I thought Long was very poor. Brannagan, Bodin, Browne & Murphy only showed brief glimpses of their quality.

What a special finish though! Delighted for the young lad - and the KR bundle scenes were very enjoyable!

Brief shout out for Sam Smith too, odious though he is. He was one of the best players on the park. Absolute handful all game…

It was lovely to see Seddon sticking his shoulder deliberately into Smiths face whilst they we’re getting untangled near the end. Overall thought Seddon did well but Long on the other hand was awful.

 

[JC_Yellow]

What a moment for Goodrham. Always looked like one of our most promising young players and one that could actually break through. Glad he got given his chance and so pleased to see him take it!

The performance itself was pretty flat. Disappointing performance, in particular, from Murphy - hopefully just lacking some match sharpness.

Still think we could do with another defensive midfielder. Although Browne, CamBran and McGuane are all good players and I don't think any of them had an especially bad game, the blend and balance of the midfield is so important and it didn't feel right today.

 

[MJB]

As I said in my message to Radio Oxford, as fans we can all worry about the first 92 minutes later. Right now we all need to enjoy that moment of pure joy.

Well done Tyler - the stuff of dreams and that’s what going to football is all about.

Also: he both made me feel about a million years old in his post-game interview, but you also couldn’t help but feed off his enthusiasm.

Buzzing, indeed!

 

[RyanioBirdio]

Delighted for young Tyler today. What a moment for him, and what a brilliant interview afterwards. So nice to hear a young kid buzzing like he was, rather than trying to play it cool. Enjoy it, son.

If Steve Seddon had put in the performance that Sam Long did, he would be currently be tarred and feathered on Broad Street.

Seddon, by the way, had a decent game.

 

[bazzer9461]

Quite a few have been poor today but Long and McGuane have been really poor

McGuane was fine
