I have tried to make the posts by the Oxford Fans easier to read in the opening post on this thread. They are not in Chronological order, but they are interesting to read.

Cheers for that. The first quoted post mentions the wrong defender being on Vipotnik for the goal, I did notice Fulton made a lovely run to drag one defender out of position, then Tymon put in the perfect cross.
 
Good to read. There were plenty of oppo fans comments like this earlier in the season as well. Shows we have a decent enough set of players between the boxes; but we still need improvement when we get to the opposition box. Definite signs of improvement in that under Matos though, with players looking to be more direct and attack full-backs, and much less shrinking into ourselves.

I do think we need to capitalize on this by bringing in another attacking player in Jan. We're going to end up getting deflated if we continue to get into good positions and we don't capitalize. I think we desperately need a shot in the arm in the final 3rd and I don't think it can wait until the summer, nor can we live in fairy land and believe Matos can turn Ronald into a player with composure in the final 3rd. Maybe he can bring that out of Benson when he gets back, but that would be quite a turnaround. Maybe a unicorn loan-signing that can cover for Idah and Cullen up front, but can also play out wide.

I can agree with most of their comments except the last one about Vigouroux being prone to clangers. Vigs for me has been one of the most consistent keepers in the league and Sheehan owed a lot of our early points in the season to him

I think Benson will be gone by Jan maybe?
