Let’s ignore the goals for a minute (will come back to that) but I thought we were excellent. People go on about stats, I don’t, but looking at them we were amazing and dominated.
What did lumley have to do other than pick the ball out of the net. We were more direct, created countless opportunities and on another day lauding a brilliant performance. Meite was superb and one of his best games in a Reading shirt. Sky commentators did my fruit in last night with the love in with Birmingham and Deeney. I thought they were very poor.
First goal, we were off it from the kick off, watch it back and you will see how slow we were at initial closedown way before cross went in. It was all just half hearted. Same for penalty, yes it was, shouldn’t of challenged like that but also it was a dive. Played for contact. Third goal summed up the previous two goals.
So basically we gifted them 3 goals. But between all that I thought we were excellent. One of the most strangest games I have witnessed in a very long time. If we scored that 2nd five mins earlier we would of drawn that game.
Hendrick was very poor I thought. Baba is doing my head in. Yiadom of last year god knows where he has gone.
This is a strange post to make but it’s how I am feeling. I am expecting a reaction against Swansea, certainly defensively but also more of the positive forward play too.
Have a good weekend.
