    Alfie Potter - Oxford

    Always rated him, very tricky and pacey, he reminds me of Ricky Holmes. Anyway he has left Oxford after 5 and a half years, obviously doesn't fit in with Michael Appleton's ego. Firstly he doesn't play against us tomorrow which is a bonus but he is now looking for a club - would you take him?
