Yeah, coz scoring goals is such a fascist way of winning football games. Whatever happens we'll have the moral/possession/defensive victory. :roll:

Urgh, yeah just seen the side. Bacuna and Popa on the bench.

How that front 3 all manage to get another game after sat is beyond me to be honest, but let's see how it goes. Not delighted at the moment though

Criticism is only going to get louder if we lose this.

Can't work out if oxf*rd's formation is 3-7-0 or 5-5-0. Shall have to wait and see I guess.

I'm hoping this kerraazy formation will totally bamboozle Millwall and we'll go on a goal rampage.

Baffling selection choice from Stam.

..................Mannone
.........Ilori, McShane, Moore
Gunter, Edwards, Berg, Blackett
.....Aluko, McCleary, Beerens

:?:

Let's pass it out from the back, but have no one in midfield that's particularly good at ball distribution. Let's play Beerens who's probably the best forward we have at providing crosses for a striker, and no striker. Let's have Edwards, who likes to attack the box, which leaves Berg covering midfield on his lonesome.


I think I might need to change my prediction. :cry:

I don't understand it. Our midfield of Bacuna, Kelly, Berg / Evans looked quality earlier in the season. At least we're starting with 3 CBs so Berg can't play too deep from midfield and end up making it three unintentionally.

he's looking for an out of the blue Edwards goal with that selection.

Another hopeless team selection I see

Mannone
Gunter
Ilori
McShane
Moore
Blackett
Berg
Edwards
McCleary
Aluko
Beerens

Jaap is either trying to prove a point or has lost it. And just for the record not one of that starting eleven have scored a for Reading this season

This could be another embarrassment.

And rightly so given that starting line up. I`ve always been a staunch Stam supporter but that looks hopeless, hope I`m proved wrong.

Fantastic performance by Dadi on Saturday, great goal, and he can't get in a strikerless team.

God knows what he's thinking right now.

I bet we win now, though :lol:

I hope so, we need the morale boost.

I'm off to find a betting company offering Reading to have ZERO shots on target tonight.

I've got us down for a 2-0 win on Snowy Balls predictor so I doubt we'll even score

Well I suppose the plus side is the are options on the bench

I think he's going to try to bore them to 0-0 after an hour and then send on Bod and Popa and hope to nick a goal

Well, hope to be proved wrong but glad I decided not to go at the moment. JS has either said to the players you can't be that bad again so put it right or I'm picking the same team until we win a game to prove I'm the boss and the fans don't know what they're doing ! :-)
I haven't seen Millwall this season but, if we do pass the ball much quicker, then maybe pace up top is the right choice. Providing McCleary has learnt the offside rule since Saturday !
