Don’t like that XI, Rino and Olise both should be there, no disrespect to Araruna but he shouldn’t be in CM ahead of them in a game like tonight

There must be a logical reason for dropping Rino Olise & Puscas, because that starting line up looks pretty weak. Points up for grabs for the visitors tonight!

I’m assuming he’s thinking Araruna has more creativity combined with midfield grit than the other two.

It’s not too bad. Would much prefer Rino for the new guy. Otherwise it’s solid enough,

Lowest crowd of the season? Home performances combined with the red button still not enough to get bums on seats, mine included

Nice to see yet another slow plodding tempoless start from Reading.
