Jodi Jones is such a top quality layer for Notts County. He's one Shrewsbury will have to look out for.

Notts County won their first game of the season, having previously drawn one and lost twice in the league as well as losing to Wigan Athletic in the EFL Cup
Goals from Matthew Dennis, Sonny Aljofree, Nick Tsaroulla and Conor Grant sparked Notts County's season into life as they beat Shrewsbury 4-1 at Meadow Lane.
Having previously failed to taste victory since appointing new boss Martin Paterson over the summer, last season's play-off semi-finalists heaped further misery on the visitors, who saw John Marquis score in the 32nd minute.
County were cruising when Dennis pounced on a mistake by Manchester United loanee Elyh Harrison in the eighth minute before Aljofree doubled their lead from close range after 20 minutes.
But more poor defending, this time at the other end of the pitch, handed Shrewsbury a lifeline when Marquis guided a header past Kelle Roos.
With both sides entering the game in poor form, self-belief was in short supply. But the excellent Tsaroulla restored the Magpies' cushion with a delightful finish shortly after the restart, sweeping an angled finish past Harrison.
Shrewsbury's hopes of avoiding a fourth straight defeat were extinguished in the 82nd minute when Conor Grant met fellow substitute Kellan Gordon's pass to slam home.

Paterson: ‘Tonight was the first performance that looked like Notts County.’
Appleton: ‘Disappointed with how many errors we made' after Notts County defeat.
