Pre-match views
Luke Williams: "We need to get ourselves back on home turf and be ready to make a very good performance and score more goals.
"We have picked up a couple of injuries but the nature of football is that it creates an opportunity for others.
"We try to make sure everyone is prepared and ready, and the players who came in were able to perform to a good level against Oxford.
"Guys have the chance to fill those places and show us what they can do."
Tom Cleverley: "It's two really positive away performances on the trot now, and we have to go to Swansea in the week with the mentality of backing it up and create a real expectation that we're a club that wants to compete at the right end of the table.
"We'll recover from today and get back to work. We're pleased with the win but now we've got to go to Swansea on Tuesday and back it up."

Remember the last time?
Swansea City suffered defeat at the Swansea.com Stadium as Ken Sema’s ferocious late strike gave Watford victory.
The Swans had by far the better of the opening period, with captain Matt Grimes twice going close from distance and Harry Darling unable to make clean contact with a free header.
Kristian Pedersen thought he had given his side the lead when he headed home from a corner with 20 minutes to go, only for the Swans to be penalised and the goal chalked off, while Darling forced two fine saves from Daniel Bachmann in the Watford goal.
At the other end, Carl Rushworth made good saves to deny Tom Ince and Vakoun Bayo, but there was little he could do about Sema’s winner as the Sweden international walloped a left-footed strike into the roof of the net.
