Oxford United at home - first round of the Carabao Cup

[mozo]

Mehmeti and Roberts played a neat one-two and Cornick looks like a striker latching onto the low cross to poke the ball in from 12 yards.

More like 4-1-1-1-3. Andy Kings going deeper than Brian Harvey in 1992

Don't they play away at a few larger grounds too?

It's Prem football, probably 50k per week, playing in possibly the best League in the World against some unbelievable teams & players. It is also a massive opportunity to perform in front of millions of football fans and then take another big step in his career. 

We also have to face facts that nobody else have really came in for him, so he cannot exactly just turn up and start playing for Man City.

Quite right and he will be on MOD  millions watching him.

Stop that we need to moan about Scott going to Bournemouth!

We can’t moan about Scott because Cornick has scored.

And we can’t moan about Cornick because errr…………

Come on. He gets to put himself against the world’s best week in, week out. And on top of that probably gets five times his currently wage. 

Yes, we’d have all liked a bigger club, but I’d they’re the only ones matching our valuation then why not. It’s a good move for the lad. 

You don’t go from a two bed flat to a five bed detached do you?

All that and it can be a stepping stone on a bigger stage. 
While he could have gone to a top Club and got lost, playing and doing well for Bournemouth will prove to the top clubs he can do it there. 

January signing for Spurs at £55M you heard it here first.

Yep.

Drinks break. The first 10 or so they were the better team. Much like Saturday, played very pedestrian. Couple of good long passes (not hoofs) from Dickie and Vyner out to Mehmeti changed tempo a bit. Goal came from a faster build up and was excellent. Cornick maybe should have done better with a chance a couple of minutes before. Growing into it.

Staggered is what I called it pre-season.

Also, let's be honest, if he's serious about England seniors then he needs to be in the PL asap 

He won’t get there playing for Bournemouth, though. Look how that’s worked out for Kelly.

I don’t mind long over the top switches from our CBs to our wingers as it opens the game up, but just do not see what long straights up to nahki/Cornick when he comes inwards do to help our game.

And you can perhaps point at Webster as well, but he'll be closer than he would be playing for a mid-table Championship club.
