OXFORD United skipper Elliott Moore reckons his side can beat anyone in Sky Bet League One.
The club’s victory against Derby County on Tuesday felt like a milestone one, in beating many people’s pre-season title favourites on their own patch.
Another tough-looking assignment awaits this weekend when the U’s make the trip to Barnsley, last season’s beaten play-off finalists.

“I don’t think we go anywhere and play for a point. We go into every game and try to win,” said Moore.
“We’re going to have to see out games and we’ll go into games with confidence.
“It’s about not getting too high, but we’ll take the confidence into Saturday.”
Asked whether the win over Derby was a statement one, Moore responded: “We know inside that we’re confident and that we’re good enough to beat anyone. I do say that with confidence.
“I wouldn’t say it’s a statement win but it puts us on a pedestal to go and beat anyone.”
