Danny Loader/Namaso played the ninety minutes for Auxerre (French Ligue 1) yesterday in their 1-0 defeat to Nantes. Only turned twenty-five on Thursday.

Jordan Holsgrove also got ninety minutes for Estoril (Portuguese Primeira Liga). Seems to be consistently rated above 7.0 on FotMob in that league.

Those two moves for the two Toms didn’t exactly work out for them. Hopefully can rebuild their careers now but I do think this is their level

Were they ever better than League One players? I would argue they were rated as highly as they were at Reading (relative to their ability) was because they came through the academy.

They had the potential. McIntyre was blighted by injuries for a start.

Too slow and immobile and not enough other attributes to be champ defenders imo.

I thought Holmes did. He was a versatile utility player (or that's how we used him!). If he could have gone with that and stayed with us, his stock may be even higher now. Who knows.
