OXFORD United’s Jake Wright is one of the best players in npower League Two, according to former Juventus and Barcelona star Edgar Davids.
The ex-Netherlands international came up against the U’s skipper on Tuesday night as Barnet’s player/head coach.
He looked to have helped the Bees to a point, but a goal deep in stoppage time from Michael Raynes earned United a 1-0 win.
Davids, who turned 40 yesterday, felt the result was harsh on the visitors.
He said: “We had some good moments but they are a good side.
“I think they have one of the best players in the league in Jake Wright – he’s a very good player.
“I’m surprised they are as low as they are in the table. If the game had ended as a draw then I think that would have been fair.”
