2 world wars, 1 world cup Head and shoulders grew into our best player against Barnsley.
BUT Barnsley are awful and the easiest team we will play. We were lucky not to be 4-0 down before started stamping his authority on the game.
Start him agains a decent team and he won’t have the time to for his brilliant passes. He has his role but Ejaria + Swift our obvious first choice playing in front of Rino.

Barnsley 3 Hull 1
Barnsley 1 Reading 1
Barnsley 5 QPR 3
Last 3 results at Oakwell - Barnsley are not as bad as you would like to think they are.
Adam has been pretty damn good in the last couple of games - should have hit the target v Stoke though early in the 2nd half.

WoodleyRoyal Reading the first few pages of this thread is hilarious. Just goes to show 90% of us have absolutely no clue about football. I think we all deserve some humble pie.

URZZZZZZZZ It was ludicrous to write him off before a ball had even been kicked, and history tells us we tend to do quite well with players in the twilight of their career. Usual faux outrage from Reading fans.

Says the guy who wrote him off when he signed...........
URZZZZZZZZ Jason Roberts was 34 when he signed for us and that didn’t turn out badly. Happy to see how this goes.
URZZZZZZZZNewCorkSethOld Man Andrews I will give any new signing a chance, it's the right thing to do but I have so much pessimism towards this one. Seems like the signing of a club desperate for bodies who know a relegation scrap is ahead of them.
David Meyler, Stephen Quinn, Dave Edwards and now Charlie Adam. Not a single 30+ year old "has premier league experience" has done well for us. This is the epitome of tried, tested, failed.
Jason Roberts
Wayne Bridge
John Salako
Paul McShane (almost 30)
Ian Harte
Andy Griffin
Mikele Leigertwood (almost 30)
I’m not saying he is guaranteed to be a huge success, but it’s ludicrous to write him off before a ball has been kicked.

Hound He has certainly exceeded expectations
Have to consider a few things though. He came in under Gomes, and was a complete waste of a wage for whatever reason - Not a Gomes player, and they clearly fell out. Until Gomes was sacked, he was every bit as bad as many expected.
Bowen was the perfect appointment for him. Knows him well, and he fits into the style. He has also benefitted from having Swift in absolutely outstanding form, and with Pele and Ovie not far behind. The amount of work they all put in allows Adam to do what he does best.
Its turned out well, and I'm pleasantly surprised by how good he still is, but the pieces have fallen into place for him

lol, just lolPistolPete Was worse than being with 10 men today due to Adam. Could have been sent off (diving), lost the ball NINE times. Didn't press the ball. Awful.
End the experiment, play Pele/Rino/Swift.
That was very good by Millwall, but pathetic by Reading.

Simon's Church He's been very good recently but could probably do with a week off now. Was genuinely like watching a pub player today
