Pretty happy overall. We are a little short in CM but with Ronnie stepping up I think we will be OK. Surprised to still see JV still at the club especially since he has not played this season really. Key will be keeping the players fit and firing but if we do we wont be far off top 2 in my opinion. |  | | |

Julien Stephan's body language with Dave McIntyre is appalling. He looks visibly furious to me whenever he does an interview, which he is clearly forced to do and resents hugely.
Did Dave write some negative articles about him or something? |  |

It amazes me with some of the posts on here. The squad we have now I reckon is as good as we have had since we got relegated last in terms of both ability and age. We are more than fine in defence with each position covered, we are more than fine in midfield with each position covered and amply catered for up front. When I saw the team sheet on Saturday I thought that was a strong side and then I saw the bench and thought wow! Compare this to just two to three years ago. We have goals right across the team and the way Charles plays I wouldn’t be surprised if he chipped in with a couple, literally. We will get injuries, guaranteed, every team gets injuries, but now we have real depth. Well done everyone involved with the signings they have added ability, good ages (even Kamara), and value. About time for other clubs to worry about us now. | |

Its all very strange with our three back up centre forwards.
KOLLI
Rather strange and constant injury issues and when played, does score, but has zero stamina to last much more than forty five minutes. Not a team player and does seem to not be universally liked within the squad. But when fit often overlooked.
LLOYD
Great kid. Tries his heart out. Literally living the dream and does a job when we need to close up a game. Not the best in terms of talent but has improved.
OBIKWU
No idea as to what his talents are, how good he is or is not, or indeed if he is ever going to play.
But looks currently like all three will still be here, and I am pleaed about that. They all likely bench options at best but we pretty well stocked in terms of forwards.
Thought Kolli and Lloyd would be moved on.
Hopefully all three contribute throughout the season ahead [Post edited 1 Sep 18:07]

Maths was never my strong suit, but are we not currently one over the 25 man limit, not counting Dembele and Kolli? |
I'm trying to think of our 25, but I think I'm missing someone!
Charles, Ward, Salamon,
Mbengue, Lamptey, Kemper, Cirkin, Adamson
Dunne, Morrison, Edwards, Clarke-Salter
Varane, Madsen, Kamara (Alemayhu doesn't need to be named)
Poku, Smyth, Saito (will Dembele be fit to play before January?)
Vale, Chair
Kine, Burrell, Lloyd, Obwikwu
That leaves room for either Larkeche or Kolli to make the 25. | | | |

Larkeche is on loan at Barnsley |  | | |

I noticed that Junior Nkeng has not joined Nottingham Forest as previously expected, he has signed for Charlton. That's a pity as he looks like a very promising prospect. Could be another 'Rudoni' transfer from AFC Wimbledon that QPR have missed out on.
He could perhaps have been signed and loaned back out to Wimbledon for this season. Or maybe QPR were never really interested in him. | | | |

I'm pretty sure that's just a bored Frenchman...
Edit: also with the 'smirk'. That's just the face people make when they shrug in France. [Post edited 1 Sep 19:06]

I have a feeling the last line may have some truth to it.
We have Poku, Saito, Smyth, Chair, Vale and Burrell, who can all play wide, with at some stage Dembele returning. So 7 players who can play wide. Plus a few DS players who are coming through to do the same. |  |

Sorry, but how does this 25 registered players rule work ? You can only have, and use, 25 registered players (not counting U. 21's) ? | | | |

A friend who is a Wimbledon fan said his agent is a nightmare and rumour was he talked himself out of getting his player a deal at Forest or QPR. Wouldn't have been first choice for us and we wouldn't need someone kicking off about not getting played. Could turn out to be a good player but not overly concerned about this one. | | | |

Registered players over 21yrs old including loans make up the 25. Under 21s who are perm contracted do not count, so your squad can be much larger than 25 players. There's also a minimum of 8 home grown players, but that is never normally an issue. | | | |

Kolli is 21 |
I think he still counts as u21 as his 21st birthday was after 1st January 2026 | | | |

There was an interview not long after he joined where DMC asked him a question intimating that somebody else was picking the team. JS was irritated by that and asked whether that was a serious question. I don't blame him. Seemed a petty dig to me. |  | | |

Yep, Kolli the right side of 21 and gets a free squad pass. | | | |

I think its a fair question with our CEO having his sticky little mitts on everything that happens in the club . | |

I see DeKeersmaeker is not included in the Oxford squad tonight. |
He has not played since January. Had a shoulder operation.
Rumours abound that he is not happy to stay and not putting effort in at training.
We don't want another one like this. | |

Whether he has or not, aim the question at CN. Very unfair to aim that at JS when he's only just starting in the job. Very sneaky and a low blow tbh. | | | |
