MATCHWATCH : Wycombe Wanderers (h)

[Millsy]

Unpopular opinion, but Marriotts not that bad.

[Bristol Paul]

What a diabolical performance. Only one man has turned up for Reading.

Who?

[Sutekh]

RICHARDSON OUT. THIS IS ABSOLUTE ******* CRAP.

Ok, I’ll give him the rest of the season, credit the double sub. It’s still been absolute crap as a performance though.

[Hound]

That’s ridiculous

Another great finish

[Pepe the Horseman]

Unbelievable finish. Marriott clearly has Gamechanger+ IYKYK

[Pepe the Horseman]

What a diabolical performance. Only one man has turned up for Reading.

Who?

[Millsy]

This is quite possibly the weirdest Reading game I remember watching.

My brain needs a rest after this.

[Snowflake Royal]

What a diabolical performance. Only one man has turned up for Reading.

Who?

Ward?

[PremAddict]

What a diabolical performance. Only one man has turned up for Reading.

Two. Everyone else phoning it in

[Sutekh]

Bolton are supposedly much better than Wycombe, so that’ll be a game to look forward to Tuesday

[Extended-Phenotype]

The strange thing is, we are always quite positive about our defensive players yet for the leaky defence constantly throwing away multiple goals per game we’d be winning matches with ease.

Where do our defensive problems come from?

[Pepe the Horseman]

Jesus. Three Wycombe players lining up for it there.

[Sutekh]

Defending is shocking, so many there free at the back post. Terrible rubbish. Total inability to dominate possession.

My suggested Reading lineup for the Bolton game:

Marriott aside, our attack has offered nothing at all. Just means they are under constant pressure

That’s my reading of it anyway

My suggested Reading lineup for the Bolton game:

Marriott

That’ll make kick offs and throw ins a bit challenging.

Fullbacks don't cope with pace well. They also don't get enough support from the wingers/midfielders. Plus O'Connor is painfully slow and gets caught too high in the middle sometimes. So balls overver the top or Paudie having to get out to cover behind the fullback hurts us badly.

On top of that, when under high pressure in our third, we have no outball and just panic clwar, so it comes straight back. When we do get the ball, we rush forward to score and lose it rather than killing the tempo and resetting.

Yiadom is quite possibly the worst ‘defender’ I have ever seen. Totally clueless.

[Sutekh]

He’s hoping we can hang on now.
