Speculation - Yakou Meite

[Mid Sussex Royal]

Lots of noise on Twitter.....not in Cardiff squad today.

Could this be on?

[Sutekh]

Love it to happen, but can the FL be persuaded?

[WestYorksRoyal]

Struggles with fitness, lost a yard of pace after his big knee injury. The answer for replacing Smith? He was always better out wide running instead space instead of competing with centre backs to hold up the ball. Meite RW are Campbell LW would be great at this level, but not sold on him as a centre forward.

[Snowflake Royal]

Would welcome him back.with open arms.

But it just sounds like nostalgia hope rather than real.

There’s a chance isn’t there? I reckon he’d come

Obviously big question if Cardiff would let him go and if the EFL would allow it

He’s not the player he was - but I’m sure he could do a job up top or RW for us still.

But that's just it, former fan favourite, struggling since leaving and probably needing to drop a level, at exactly the time we need someone.

So it will get a lot of noise regardless of if anything is actually being worked on.

Meite isn't a striker and looks low on confidence. Surely we could get a better loanee although I do like the guy

Meite has always considered himself a striker and pestered Bowen to play him up top.

Meite has been one of the most likeable Reading players over the last decade. Personally think he he is best suited as an inside forward but saying that he could do a job up top and should cause problems to most Div 1 defenses.

The big thing for me is his presence in the dressing room!! The guy is well liked and larger than life much like Mbengue. Between the pair of them they should beable to keep dressing room morale high . Wareham played well today and i think he may well take his chance so even if we give Wareham 60 mins and then bring on Meite for the last half hour!!

We need two mores wins to be safe and with the cash from Smith and possibly Bindon we should be able to fend off Administration.

More to the point he has a physical presence which, even if he has lost a bit of pace, will worry defenders and make their 90 minutes awkward & uncomfortable. This would be different to anything else up top for Reading.

[Snowflake Royal]

Yeah he could certainly tussle with CBs.

[blythspartan]

Yeah he could certainly tussle with CBs.

Yaks is very likeable and could do a job in League One. My only concern is he’s likely to get injured and be unavailable for most of his loan period.

Something in common with Dorsett then

basically this.

but also PLEASE.

[Clyde1998]

Would be amazed if this happens.

Agreed, more nostalgia than hope, but how amazing wouldit be

[AthleticoSpizz]

Cannot see too many Championship clubs being interested, so maybe the drop-down to L1 is feasible.

More likely a gig abroad tho’?

[Brogue]

Got Dave kitson MKII written all over it. It’s a no from me.

[Brogue]

Spotted in the hotel

[Orion1871]

Love Yaks but never go back. Think Ady Williams is the only one who has done well after leaving and then returning.
