Oxford United manager Karl Robinson has told The Oxford Mail that West Ham United-owned attacking midfielder Marcus Browne is the best player in League One.

Browne joined League One club Oxford on a season-long loan deal from Premier League side West Ham in the summer transfer window.

The 20-year-old attacking midfielder played well for the Yellows in their 1-1 draw with Sunderland away from home at the Stadium of Light in League One this past weekend.

Oxford manager Robinson was impressed with the performance of the 20-year-old and has spoken highly of the attacking midfielder.

Robinson told The Oxford Mail about Browne: “Marcus Browne just showed everybody why he’s the best player in this league. This is the best team in the league and that shows you what they think of our No 10.”

Bright future

Browne is a very talented and creative young footballer, and his performances for Oxford this season have been very encouraging.

The 20-year-old has yet to break into the West Ham first team, but in the future the youngster could well establish himself as a key figure in the London club’s senior side.

For now, the attacking midfielder should concentrate on being a success at Oxford and helping Robinson’s side to promotion to the Championship.
