Allen departed Bescot to join Wycombe in League One for a six-figure sum and has featured in every league game for the Chairboys. 

The 'Cannock Cannavaro', as he was affectionately dubbed at Walsall, has two assists in 14 games in all competitions this term.

David Okagbue - Peterborough United 

Okagbue has scored twice and assisted five more this season.
David Okagbue joined Peterborough after just two years at Walsall.

He has made 11 appearances in all competitions for the Posh so far.
