Just watched the highlights on Sky - I hadn't realised just how good Bishop's movement to find space for his second was. He and Kamara were both outstanding today - to be fair the whole team were. Kamara overall my MOTM but wouldn't argue with anyone making it Bishop.

Kamara giving a lone abusive, three toothed, twelve fingered Wycombe fan the 3-1 sign when he was walking round the touchline after being subbed off was like having warm butter massaged into my body by a beautiful woman. These players are no pushover. Maybe the ill advised comments from that Norwich investor fired him up a little bit more. His contribution in this 13 game unbeaten run has been nothing short of exceptional.
Colby Bishop got rewarded with two long overdue and well deserved goals. The rest he got over the international break did him the power of good. He'll be well up for Derby and for me he starts that game and we hold Yengi back to unleash him on Shrewsbury. Getting Evans a bit of gametime was a nice bonus. Paddy Lane wasn't anywhere near his best today but never stopped running. Saydee's ball to Kamara in the build up to the third goal was sublime and he deserved to finish that move off. We are for the first time in a long time blessed with all four of our fullbacks available. Moxon was a bit scruffy but Pack was good as you would expect.
Bishop was great today, and Kamara too. I thought Kamara tended to hang on to the ball too long first half, taking on one man too many and trying to take it down in the box when he had the chance to shoot or pass, but second half he was a constant thorn in their side.
I'm wondering if overall there was an instruction to shoot sooner - we were shooting on first opportunity far more than usual, including Raggett from a way outside the box. A lot of shots were accurate too, which caused them problems (not Raggett's row Z'r but he played really well). I thought this game might be a potential stumble but no, I love this squad.
Got home about an hour ago. We were largely comfortable, Wycombes goal came from a poor back pass by Pack and then a deflection that fell straight to their player. That and a free kick in tthe 2nd half was all they had all game.
It's always more nerve racking when your watching especially at the ground but we were comfortable throughout. Their physicality was nothing, the couldn't get near Kamara all game who shredded their LB. Bishops movement all game was brilliant, Saydee was a man mountain ands links ups brilliantly with Kamara. Olgivie played like he hadn't even been out. Onto Derby, win that we are 8 points clear of them.

Since getting back into the squad, Saydee has been really good, he has come on strongly since the start of the season. I always rated him but wrote him off a little in terms of being a major factor this season. Many more wrote him off as merely a 'passion merchant' but he was a great hulking behemoth again today. Wycombe players really struggled to get the ball off him as trying to muscle him off the ball is like trying to push a brick wall with your toes.

Another smaller thing I liked was Tom Mcintyre watching the game in the away end. I wasn't mad keen that he kept going to Reading games.
