The 25-year-old has made just eight appearances in an injury-ravaged campaign so far. Martin admitted Moore-Taylor had played 'too much too soon' after his knee surgery, but said he is back to full fitness and ready to play again.

Martin said: ""It was good to have him back in the squad – we knew it was coming. He was pleased to be back in it as well, but he has to patient because George and Walshy were excellent again today. They stood up to a lot, but it's great to have him back."

Meanwhile, Dons are not overly concerned by Player of the Month Alex Gilbey limping out of the game at St Andrews on Saturday.
