He was alright- possibly our best player- at Charlton. When we got the ball in the final third he was causing them nightmares with his running.

He had one good run mate. Whatever glimpses of skill he may show away from home, is far overshadowed by his defensive failings and his constant giving away of possession. Wolves might be his stage, lets hope so, but I'm still far from convinced that he's no more than a luxury player who can look good at home.

Sounds like he had a blinder again tonight. Also read on the OS that he picked up the ball after breaking free of Jarvis, who pulled up with injury, so that he could recieve treatment a la Di Canio, top man!

was pretty solid tonight and a great assist led to Bikeys header (final product :lol: )


more encouraging was him getting stuck in , winning various headers and tracking back well


few occasions out of position defensively but he is learning


good player

i think he is the tpe of player who thrives on confidence and belief, he is quite fragile like a koala bear, i would employ a counsellor or sports psychologist specifically for him

Most people thought all he needed to do was reproduce his home form on the road to be a good player for this level, he's started to do that. Fair play to him, if he keeps this up for a season I'll happily admit I was wrong about him being the next Savage and will buy a Kebe T-shirt.

I remember when Ronaldo first came over here everyone said he had raw talent but was a luxury player as he had no end product. But eventually he got there.

Kebe is starting to get the end product there and I predict the goals will start coming soon, he has been close loads of times recently and gets to the back post for headers.

Fair play to Jimmeh! We're far enough in to say that he's producing more than a couple of one-offs. Two or three more performances in the next four to five games and he'll have totally won me over.

A goal or two would go a long way to helping that as well, mind.

For me, it seems the key to our success is having a half decent midfield pairing and two wingers causing problems. When one, or heaven forbid, both wingers aren't performing Reading fail.

Last season we had 1 good winger for half a season and occasionally a fairly adequate one as well/instead. Combine with a one man central midfield and we did rather well to nearly stay up IMO.

Tore Watford's left side to shreads!! He was restricted on Tuesday because Wolves knew he was a good player and always stuck two players on him when he had the ball at his feet. This left Rosenior free to launch the balls in.

I'm completely won over. Mainly because even against Burnley where he was very quiet through out much of the game (going by the radio) he still gets 2 assists. And could have had a hattrick by the sounds of it.

Doesn't mean he doesn't still sometimes forget to take the ball with him, or waltz past 3 men and then walk straight into a 4th though.
