We look really dangerous. Nice and direct and high tempo with it.

This Narch kit is awful for my colourblindness compared to the ref.

Norfolk Royal Bit of local knowledge here. Although Norwich are on a spectacular run in terms of results, their fans are not happy with their performances.

They’ve been somewhat fortunate to come away with wins in several recent games.

They are weak at left back where the first choice Giannoulis is injured and been replaced by Byrom. He is The weak link defensively and if I were Ince I would be tempted to put Meite up against him and pressure him into mistakes.


Good knowledge NR, Hoilett is killing it on the right wing.

Brogue
6ft Kerplunk Ince needs to calm down sharpish.


Holmes as captain needs to earn his stripes and have a word, but this is a problem with having a youngster as captain in yiadoms absence


It’s alright dad’ll have a word at HT

Could use getting through to half time really based on the last few minutes, they are starting to see a bit more of the ball and are knocking it about quicker now.

Impressive half. Fingers crossed more of the same after the break.

Excellent half
Not what I was expecting at all, so pleasantly surprised with how positive we were
Just missing a goal

I don't understand colour blindness. Colours are easy, even my 3 year old knows colours.

Ejaria Meite Joao on the bench. Gives me hope we could change something up if things are still level around to 60-70 minute mark. What a difference it makes to have genuine options on the bench.

Being able to see them properly probably helps a little with that.

Actually, on the plus side, it means I know at least one test she can pass despite being your kid. :wink:

I love this team.

For so long now we've been nice Reading, but we've got players like Ince, NGW and Hutchinson setting an example. Aggression and work rate. Paul Ince has really put his nasty streak into the team.

Both wingbacks have been excellent, pressing high up the pitch.
Carroll has won almost every ball up to him.
The Toms are keeping Pukki very quiet.

Slow start but otherwise a very good half.
Hoilett making hay against a right-footed left-back (my favourite dislike in football) and Andy Carroll impressive again-hopefully he will last a bit longer tonight.

If we can restrict the Norwich attack as much as we have then we have a real opportunity here.

Well at least Reading didn’t concede in the first 15 as in the previous 3 home games v Norwich

We should give Carrol an extended contract now he’s done more that half than jaol has all season.

More than a left footed right back?
