It was a frustrating point Dons claimed on Saturday when they missed a host of chances to put Oxford United to bed, eventually succumbing to their pressure in the second-half to draw 1-1 at Stadium MK.

Mark Jackson has called for his side to keep a level head, and when those chances come along, put them away.

Kaikai is enjoying his time at MK Dons since his move

Sullay Kaikai got his first goal for MK Dons on Saturday against Oxford, and has made a generally positive impression on the side since moving from Wycombe Wanderers last month. And he says he’s enjoying his time at the club so far.

“I've found it good, I've enjoyed my time here and I've settled in well,” he said. “It's been easy to do that with the group of players and staff, so I've enjoyed it.

“I'm grateful to have had the chance to hit the ground running. I'm enjoying my football, I've just got to keep it going.”

We know they're a good, strong team, with a good win at the weekend. They play a certain style of football which is exciting to see, and we'll be ready for that challenge.

They score goals, they're powerful and play on the front foot. We'll have to be on our game to deal with that. But I feel we have elements to cause them problems too.

We'll be looking at how we can exploit things.
