We've had the Oxley/Smith debate recently when Smithy ended up being most fans goal keeper of choice. Then he got mashed up in the next few games and Mr Oxley took over for Millwall and had a blinder (or at least a good game). Now its major disaster time again for him. Neither man is consistent enough to fill me with confidence, but the thing is it is one or the other because there is no one else. Maybe changing the central defensive pairing to Ferdinand and Inniss may help, but that pairing isn't instantly going to produce a practised pair. I said earlier that PB is going to have to recruit again in January (assuming he is around to do so) and nothing has happened to make me change my mind. Back to the original post, Oxley is desperately in need of confidence and all we can do is give him support the same as we should do for Smith. The alternative is that his confidence will be even more shot otherwise.
