TiagoIlori Might still be some teams keen on him and he’s got just over a year left on his deal, seems disinterested. Time to cash in on him? Think we could find a better player for the price we could get for him tbh, thinking about the long term, Swift is the same age and is undoubtedly a level above, Stam seems to be committed to Reading so I don’t see where Kelly fits the way things are going to be honest.

Where to start on this:
1, He is just coming back to fitness
2. He signed a new contract in the summer until 2020.
3. Swift and Kelly can play together in the same team successfully.
Even if you think that Swift/Kelly are fighting for one spot, Swift is injured more often than not at the moment, so getting rid of his back up would make no sense.
So yes, there may well be teams interested but we would be expecting a larger fee than most will pay unless the player makes it clear he wants out.

Sutekh Breakthrough last season and did really well.
Started this season OK but got injured and is now getting back to full fitness.
On top of that expectation on him is now a little bit higher and other clubs have seen what he is about and as a result he is going to find it harder.
This is really all as expected and it's how he deals with it that will now mark him out to be a player with a future at the highest level or just another also ran.
Given he's only just turned 21 and Reading aren't exactly having a brilliant season I think he's doing just fine at the moment. Really could do with him working on the dead ball side of his game as we all know it's a strength and Reading could do with a player who has real consistency in that area.
Sell him? Don't be daft.

Plus the entire side started this season shit. More than anyone other type of player, playmakers like Kelly struggle to perform when the rest of the team is in a malaise. Your Barrows, and your Edwards and your McShanes can just get stuck into their game. Kelly needs his team mates to give him options to excel. He's still not been as good and having a bit of a wobble, but he'll improve as we improve.

genome Didn't he start the season really well? He just looks low on confidence, needs an arm round the shoulder from Stam, I think.
genome Sounds like he had a good game up at Sunderland, stats-wise at least
94.6% passing accuracy from 76 passes (although I think half of those were in that 5 minutes where Sunderland did nothing)
6 crosses
3 key passes
1 assist
genome It's laughable to immediately jump to "LET'S SELL HIM" as soon as he has a few bad games!

not off last seasons form. swift scored quite a few vital goals
didn't he? if you took his goals away where would we
have finished in the league?

No idea.
Pointless to even ask.
