Brunners 7,982 Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 Our only saving grace is that it's away from home. Although it's in a stadium that looks like ours, so maybe that might make them think they're playing at home and give up. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Very ballsy Well I know he's a winger, rather than a wing-back, but I just felt we needed more attacking threat (hence the 3 CBs). I feel our best chance now seems to be to put early pressure on and score first. Put opponents on the back foot and we don't have to worry about defending so much (in theory anyway).

And they've won 1 in 12 at home, so we're not talking about an impossible task here! Having said that, I'd shake someone's hand for a point right now. I see a lot of Reading and Puscas, Meite, Ejaria are really good on their day... They can also go missing and be frustratingly poor. Reading have nothing to play for, so we have to outcompete in every area we can and not make stupid mistakes. Roberts and/or Tav have to play for me, we're too one-paced and have no link to midfield and attack without them. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Borodane 6,297 Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 2-0 Reading. It’ll be easy for them and we will crumble as soon as they break out of walking pace. Link to post Share on other sites
DocMartin 682 Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 I would change things around a bit add a little bit of ooomph to the midfield 4-3-1-2 stojanovic Spence Fry Shotton Coulson Clayton Howson Roberts Saville Fletcher Assombalonga I’d give Roberts a free role to play behind the front 2, Clayton sitting deep and Howson and Saville as box to box m/f’s pressing forward when possible or covering in behind as and when the full backs press forward.

Downsouth 6,326 Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 I know that this is not technically the be all end all game but do any of you feel that this could be the season defining game? I certainly do because whatever the result could impact not only us but others as well. This is such an important game, in fact massive without appearing to be and well worthy of a seldom used phrase of mine. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

This is such an important game, in fact massive without appearing to be and well worthy of a seldom used phrase of mine. I feel like our season-defining game was Hull DS... and we lost it. That was the definition of a must-not-lose game... the players totally bottled it and made some shocking mistakes. Will never get an easier shot at 3 points in this league. Win that and we're not totally safe but we're not going into the last straight panicking either - plus Hull would have been on the brink. If we go down, that's the one I'll look at as the season-definer. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
DurhamRed 2,047 Posted July 14, 2020 Share Posted July 14, 2020 Well hopefully as Reading have nothing much to play for and is no fans at the stadium to even motivate them. That Boro will somehow by a minor mirical get a 1-0 win with a Reading defender scoring a own goal from a corner 🥳 Link to post Share on other sites
