Feel that today he deserves his own thread. For me it was a man of the match performance from him.

He carried the ball well, made plenty of runs to make himself available and give defenders/midfielders an option and showed great anticipation to take his goal for the equalizer. Feel like he is starting to get some confidence and the brizzle commentators couldn't wait to see the back of him.
 
Oba was fantastic, dragged us into that by sheer will power. Well played son.
 
Brilliant performance today , he was the only one during the first half with any urgency and desire. Fantastic performance.
 
When we learn to spot the runs he's making and get the ball to him in time to make use of them there's bagsfuls of goals there. If I'm hypercritical his first touch is probably the reason why he's playing for us instead of further up the pyramid, but you just can't teach the kind of football intelligence he has. Again and again he's in the right place.
 
some lovely dribbles again, good player but a confidence player me thinks
 
Yep, their defenders were s**t scared to go near him when he really went at them
 
Up until now, we've not been a team who plays the ball over the top for someone to run onto because Oba hasn't had a regular run of games. Piroe prefers the ball played to feet so as he's been our main man since August, we've got into the habit of trying to play through teams but now we're starting to wake up to the fact that we've got a player whose game is about making runs behind defences and we've got to utilise that strength more. Having one striker who is making runs and another who wants the ball to feet can be a great combination if used to maximum effect by those who feed them.
 
Easily MOTM.. Piroe and him is the way forward.. he's getting better every game, hopefully we'll see what this LWB is all about and hope he is quick that could feed them.. Wolf for all his running isn't a LWB
