BRANDON BARKER admits he is in a 'really good place' as he continues to catch the eye for Oxford United.
The winger was a bit-part player during the first half of the season with Rangers as he struggled to assert himself in Steven Gerrard's side.
Barker made his fifth appearance for the Us in the goalless draw with Ipswich at the weekend.
And he is eager to add more numbers to his game after opening his account against Bristol Rovers earlier this month.
Barker said: “Up to now I’ve done okay, but I still think there’s a lot more to come.
"I’ve only just started playing regularly again, so I’m just trying to build my form and help the team out.

“When I came in, my match-fitness was really low and that’s pretty hard to take.
"When you can’t play every single game it’s quite frustrating.
"Now I’m in a really good place – I lasted 80-odd minutes against Ipswich, so now I can’t really complain about the fitness.
"I just need to focus on the performance and help out with goals and assists.”
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
