1. Jamie Reid returns to the top of the National League goal scoring charts.
Jamie Reid's brace for United against Barrow yesterday saw him return to the top of the National League goal scoring charts - at the expense of Scott Quigley, who failed to find the target for the Bluebirds. Reid's double moves him up to 12 league goals for the campaign - 13 in all competitions if you include his FA Cup goal against Boreham Wood - which places him above Quigley, who has 11.
2. Armani Little fashions impressive goal scoring feat.
After being a stand-out performer in pre-season injury had so far prevented Armani Little from hitting the same heights in the regular campaign. However, on his return from injury Little appeared to have found his perfect role in the side playing in the 'number 10' role behind Jamie Reid, which further emphasised by his display against Barrow which saw him bag a brace. Such was the quality of his performance, there was an understandable sense of disappointment when he was forced to leave the field towards the end with a hamstring injury.
3. Matt Buse and Frank Vincent continue to impress in the centre of midfield.
At the start of the season, Matt Buse - a pre-season arrival from Taunton Town - wasn't even making the Gulls' subs bench and Frank Vincent - who re-joined United on a season-long loan from AFC Bournemouth - was filling in at left-back whilst Liam Davis recovered from abdominal surgery.
Now the duo now have several games under their belts as the Gulls central midfield pairing - established in the absence of skipper Asa Hall and Connor Lemonheigh-Evans through injury.
Buse has become something of an unsung hero for the Gulls, having netted against AFC Fylde and Ebbsfleet United, whilst Vincent is still waiting to get off the mark, although he did have one chalked off against Ebbsfleet that had appeared to have crossed the line.
Manager Gary Johnson will have a serious selection dilemma on his hands when Hall and Lemonheigh-Evans become available again.
4. United are seventh in the league table and fifth in the form table.
United's victory over Barrow was their fourth in five league fixtures, and their fifth in six in all competitions, which moves them up seventh in the league table - and back into the play-off zone.
The win also moves them up to fifth in the National League form table over the last six league matches.
5. Saikou's coming back.
Striker Saikou Janneh is set to re-join the Gulls on loan from Bristol City, as he continues his recovery from a knee ligament injury. Janneh, 19, found the back of the net 18 times in all competitions for United last season as they clinched the National League South title. He will soon have the chance to renew his partnership with Jamie Reid and to reunite with Jake Andrews, Opi Edwards and Connor Lemonheigh-Evans.
