Gary Waddock has saluted his Wanderers contingent for the professionalism they have shown in his opening week as Blues boss.

Waddock's rein began with a 1-1 draw with rivals Colchester United on Saturday and the 47-year-old believes the point the Chairboys collected at Adams Park was down to the efforts of every member of his newly inherited squad.

He said: "Peter (Taylor) has put a good group together here and perhaps they're lacking a bit in confidence and belief, but there was a buzz in the dressing room after the game and we'll get that feeling back.

"It's not just about the eleven, it's about the squad and they've all played their part. Since we walked into the building on Wednesday, they've applied themselves in a fantastic manner and if they continue to play in that way then we'll pick up points."

Waddock's first move as Chairboys chief was to lure Scott Davies to Adams Park on a month's loan from Championship side Reading on Friday.

And the Republic of Ireland U21 international repaid the faith shown in him by the ex-Aldershot boss by picking up the man-of-the-match award for his performance against the U's.

He said: "We had him at Aldershot so we rate him extremely highly. He's not played a lot of first team fixtures lately so his fitness levels in the second half weren't as high as we would like but you could tell in spells what a good player he is.

"They all deserved a pat on the back - I'm delighted with the whole group."
