Snowflake Royal I'd take big Hec back in a nano second, though much rather a perm move.

Good shout. He would do well back here.

Not claiming as my idea, already talked about a page or so back.

Big Hec would be a great signing IF he rediscovers his form. He was terrible for Hull last season and his final season here at Reading. Marriott from Peterborough, Ojo from Scunthorpe and Carey from Plymouth would be great signings

Partly why I'd only want a perm rather than loan.

I think there's an element of Chelsea syndrome where he spends time around their big boys and is their player so maybe considers himself slumming it in the chump. Like Shorey got after training with England. Getting a clean break might fix that.

And I still love him for the Academy commentry him and Jake Taylor used to do.

linkenholtroyal list of interesting out of contract players (as it stands at the moment)

Andreas Bjelland (brentford) 29
Bobby Reid (Bristol City) 25
Marlon Pack (Bristol City) 27
Jack Hobbs (Forest) 29
Eric Lichaj (Forest) 29
Moses Odubajo (Hull) 23
Abel Hernandez (Hull) 27
David Meyler (Hull) 27
Andy Yiadom (Barnsley) 26
Aaron Gunnarson (Cardiff) 29
Junior Hoilett (Cardiff) 27
Ryan Fredricks (Fulham) 25

I know a lot of them we wouldnt stand a chance but this is a selection of the good players out of contract this summer


There's not a single player on that list that I'd take, that would come here.




:D

Yeah agree with Hec. Would have to be either perm or loan with view to making perm

Was always a strange signing by Chelsea that one

I don’t think James Collins would be a bad shout on a one year deal. He would certainly show our defenders a bit of old school defending which would be no bad thing.

Id try to get rid of 3 of : van den berg, edwards, Evans, Kelly, swift
Then bring in a good all round midfielder and a good striker.
Maybe romaine sawyers or George saville. I liked the look of kasey Palmer too

Hope so if he comes back, but I’d honestly rather we signed someone else, though if hes being signed because he’s the best we find, not because he’s ex Reading I wouldn’t be too fussed.

Josh Onomah

Doubt we would/could buy him, but could be a loan signing.
Just turned 21 a couple weeks ago.
Plays def-mid (or, at least should).
On loan at Villa this season, from Spurs.
Villa may not want him in PL if they go up.
He's down the depth chart in Spurs midfield, and behind another youngster (Winks).
His best position is def-mid, where he played for England, although at club level he's also been played out wide, and further forward at times, to lesser effect.
Played a fair bit for Villa, although squeezed out in recent months as Bruce has preferred more experience during promotion push.
Big, strong and powerful for his age and level. Physically imposing, but can pass and play good football. Talented, scores goals, has potential, highly rated and regarded.
Needs to add even more aggression and dominance as he develops and fills out against adult players. Needs more determination and self-belief as he progresses and matures.

Great in FM17 for me, and he came to Reading there, so I'm well up for this! :D

Andrija Novakovich From Telstar. Decent Dutch League 2 side. 19 goals from 30+ games. Retains Dutch link, young, sort of player we should be signing.
