Looks far too good to even wish we could have him from that video!
Loool. He’s already on 27k a week, not to mention that he’s far too good for us.
Work permit?

Snowflake RoyalNewCorkSethJohn Smith And you saw all of that from the Lower West stand?

I have no idea what point he is trying to make. Because I can't see the striker on the screen seeing Gunter stand 5 yards off his man as he crosses the ball into our box is irrelevant?
It's pretty simple. Live at the game you get a far better view of overall shape, off the ball play and defensive positioning. On screen you get a far better view of individual match incidents all over the pitch and can rewatch the tight calls.

Sutekh Actually think Clement's arrival and the subsequent run of form has been the best way Reading could have survived as PC would have learned a hell of a lot more about the squad and their mental make up than he would have done if Reading had gone on a winning run.
Overall it's not a bad squad Reading have, it is talented but it's just terribly unbalanced in terms character so it's largely that that needs addressing (besides the main need for a striker) so the need for a complete overhaul is probably not necessary, more careful pruning and replacement in key areas.

NewCorkSeth Just we were attacked down the flanks quite a bit this season and everything I know and have seen about Gunter (not just this season) points to him being completely unsuitable to playing as a CB whatever the team shape is.

Totally agree. There was next to no defensive cover (tracking back) for the full backs. Likewise the centre of the defence was equally left totally exposed on far too many occasions. Finally on the last game of the season. Clement partnered JVB and Bacuna in front of a back 3. We looked so much better.

Not for me, accident waiting to happen. Saw him in a game 2 season ago for West Ham when they lost at home to Watford, comfortably 2-0 up, Collins mistake -> 2-1, West Ham lose the game 2-4.
No better than what we have and would rather see a couple of youngsters get some bench time.
That's just 1 game.....

Meh, still didn't impress me. Plus, as I said, he is not better than what we have got. Would rather we try harder to sign Elphic than pick up hasbeen journeymen.

Hardly a journeyman....he's only played for 3 clubs in just over 17 years......

Assuming he isn't washed up, he is clearly better than anything we have (and Elphick).
Unless you envisage Ilori and Moore having a 14 year career at CB in the PL?

Also has over 50 caps for Wales.

Hendo By that logic, so is John O'Shea? He had a pretty lengthy PL career.
Having a premier league career doesn't always equal a good player.

Chris Gunter has 87 caps for Wales yet people think he is terrible.
