Re: MATCHWATCH : Wigan Athletic (h)

Jackson Corner No lack of effort just not good enough the Wigan keeper has not had to make a save.

Re: MATCHWATCH : Norwich City (h)

I love this team. For so long now we've been nice Reading, but we've got players like Ince, NGW and Hutchinson setting an example. Aggression and work rate. Paul Ince has really put his nasty streak into the team. Both wingbacks have been excellent, pressing high up the pitch. Carroll has won almost...

Re: Rival Watch

Truly abysmal. As bad a goal as I’ve ever seen That clown defender who dives after his keeper brushes him….absolutely pathetic Makes me wonder what are the ten worst Reading concessions? Worthy of a thread? #1 is that goal v Burton. Can't think of one worse than that. I have a feint memory of Feder...

Ovie playing ten?


He's playing alongside Hutchinson. Ince behind Joao


Hmmm. Thanks. Would prefer him at ten over Ince.

It actually looks to really suit him. He is a very good tacker and interceptor of the ball and can keep it in tight spaces. Doesn't have time to dawdle on it now either.

how the oxf*rd are Blackburn u23's so good Maybe Leeds even more, as they only became CAT 1 this season, so it`s their 1st season in the PL 2 And vice versa some clubs that have along history of producing lots of talent from their academies seem to be not quite as strong at the moment.

LightwaterRoyal Santi Cazorla in the 7-5.
John Carew when we lost the quarter final to Villa.

Cazorla was unstoppable in that match... because he didn’t play. He scored a hat-trick in the league fixture. Theo Walcott was MOTM in the cup game.

:D :oops:

Re: Diego Rossi

Usually plays on the Left Wing for LAFC, not really sure where he fits in unless we're moving on one of Olise, Meite or Aluko.

Re: Injury watch 2020/21

That appears to be a very precise diagnosis. Would be great if it's that or less but given the club's record on predicting returns from injury, I fear it may be longer. I'd take that. Looked to me like a fractured collar bone from the way he fell / held it afterwards which I'd have thought was 4-6 ...
