Back-to-back wins not easy - Bloomfield

Oxford United's failure to record back-to-back wins in the Championship this season is down to the competitive nature of the league, according to head coach Matt Bloomfield.
The U's will try to make it successive league victories when they host Birmingham City on Saturday (15:00 GMT) having won at Leicester City last weekend.
"It's a very tough league - we're coming up against a team who are very well backed and came into the season with a lot of momentum," Bloomfield told BBC Radio Oxford.
"It's a really competitive league where you have no right to win football matches - we've spoken a lot about the performance at Leicester but we've come into the building wanting another result, our eyes are firmly fixed on the future, what's been and gone is done."
Oxford have signed five players during the transfer window as they look to escape the relegation zone and Bloomfield is not ruling out more movement before it closes on Monday.
"We've had inquiries for our players and those talks are ongoing behind the scenes, making sure we execute everything we can," he added.
"There will be ins and outs but nothing is confirmed and if there isn't then I'm really happy with the squad we've got. It's not like we're desperate for more."
