Hound First half was quite even but this second half been totally one sided. Pretty depressing actually

Was it just Carroll and Bouzanis that changed at HT?

Yeah - and Yiadom coming off about five minutes before half-time.

Yeah saw that in first half.

Do you think Reading Phoenix would be a good name for the new club?

WTF happened? First half we looked decent but disjointed and not a lot of threat. Last 20 minutes we've been woeful, and that's after we conceded 3 and Swansea seased off!

Well that game was seemingly a ****** useless exercise. Exercise for the players was all it was!

I once heard the advice that when you're defending, make the pitch small, when you're attacking make it big.

That last attack we had 6 players all close enough to be under a single tarpaulin, and no width.

oxf*rd me, seen the goals. CBC making Virginia look good. :shock:

Don’t know. Tbf Swansea played well, totally different level to the rot QPR put out in midweek

Lost our heads for 10 mins with 3 dismal goals then Swansea just bossed it

Not much positive to take second half. Rushesha did well enough

I don't rate Bouzanis, but if there's one thing you can rely on him for, it's he won't piss around with short passes in our box. Just lump it badly up the pitch to the opposition. Which is much safer.

Selles can walk now if he wants us to play this passing out bolloxs in L1 with our defence and midfield.

Our players are idiots in bad form. Give them as few important decisions to make as possible.

Savage. Nothing interesting, lots of float to the far side of the box for Holmes and Carroll.

These Welsh oxf*rd have been giving us the run around for a decade in competitive football, so someone decided to arrange a friendly so they could play circles around us in pre-season instead.

Zero confidence for either players or fans going into the season.

It's got to be Andresson to start the season from what I've seen; Bouzanis as the back up.

Think that would be my decision but never been overly convinced with either so would be looking for a new option :lol:

Same thoughts. This is the type of football that has failed miserably at this club, and to play it at this level is just crazy.
If he is going to try and play like this he is gone by Christmas.
