Reading (H) - Tues 16th Feb 19:45 - Matchday thread

[Midlands Robin]

Jesus H ******* christ we are so static. 

It's like watching under 5's football with about 8 red shirts around the ball at all times and no creativity whatsoever. 

[Jerseybean]

However frustrating this is to witness just imagine being FD or NW they have not received one pass that has given them a chance of retaining it.

Has Moore touched the ball yet?

Yeah ain’t you been watching . He kicked it straight out of play twice

[Atlanta_Red]

Must be because I'm viewing in Atlanta, but the stream is clearly making city look slow and lumbering.  Yeah, must be the feed....

An impressive 30 minutes from Lansbury according to the **** commentating.

I really don’t think he’s been bad.

Vyner isn't a full back. Needs to play centrally.

To be fair, he's a better full back than Mariappa is a left back. I'd much rather him in the centre but I kind of get why he is at right back given the options available. 

[ExiledAjax]

Rowe saying that blocking shots is our bread and butter. Ok, it is good to block shots. 

But why isn't our bread and butter stopping the shots from being taken? Surely a far better aim if we want to stop goals being scored?

FFS and then he's laughing as Ejaria slices into our box and cuts it back for a shot. 

[Super]

Hanging on now

[Kibs]

Have we had a shot yet?

[Red white and red]

Vyner getting beaten so easily there!

We nearly concede and Rowe says “that just highlights the work the coaches do with us”

So essentially, last ditch defending, hanging on for dear life is what we’re good at? Great!!!

[Red Army 75]

Well if this is the reaction after a 6-0 defeat. Then Mr Lansdown what an easy decision to make 

[Redsi2]

Another 35 mins of football without a single shot on target. Can we stretch this out to half time!!

[daored]

Least we’re showing pride in the shirt tonight

Just a matter of time.

One way traffic.

[petehinton]

I haven’t seen a team this less interested to win a game at home in a while 

[tin]

More of the same dog shit again tonight. No pace, no threat, no urgency. At least we have a bit of shape about us, even if Holden persists with Moore on the left of a back three and Lansbury in DM.

Not sure if you’ve seen this, Dean...

[cidercity1987]

Might as well have lumped that free kick on target, we might have a chance of getting 3 points under Ole's new system
