Oxford had no fit Left backs, and we targeted that weakness, so Sakamoto was always going to look good today.
Hopefully he will take the confidence from today's performance into the next few games.
6 weeks if it doesn't need surgery, 3 months if it does.
Hopefully it isn't as bad as we fear, and he can make it to the end of the season with physio and injections.
Absolute Bollocks.
He's nearly a year younger than Obikwu ffs, and yet already got a full international cap.
The lad has a massive future in the game.
The fact that FL rates him should tell you all you need to know.
Once he gets some experience and fills out he's going to be an absolute beast.
Massive game for Eccles, with Sheaf now fit and Torp available next week, Eccles needs a big game to stay in the starting line up.
At last we have some strength in depth, so hopefully that pressure for places will lead to top performances where it matters.
