“I thought he had a really positive impact on the game. He caused Heneghan problems, he made him worried. He took it into feet well, rolled him, and he should have got a penalty as well.”

Matt Smith

“He had a good impact with his running, he's got an engine. He got in down the sides in both halves, he covers a lot of ground. He was frustrated at the back end of last year with the lack of opportunities but now he's stepping up and showing some good moments.”

Louie Barry

“Louie has a great attitude to work, he caused problems. We just need that final bit, and that's the same with a lot of the guys. These are their first games in League One and it will take them time to get used to the league, but they want to improve and the staff here will make them do that.”

Daniel Oyegoke

“Daniel made his full debut today at 19, and I thought he did really well but we all go away and look to improve. The challenge now is to perform like that and get points.”

Will Grigg

“Griggy felt his hamstring so it was precautionary. It's too early to tell, so we'll have a look.”
