Red_Dawn Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 1 hour ago, Hucknall Ram said: I watched it this morning, it was a tail of two keepers, Reading's keeper saved everything that went at him (apart from the goal), Forest's keeper made some decent saves but two went in close to his body (where if it was the reading keeper it would hit him and stayed out) and one he put into his own net. I went last night (20 minutes from my house) and I will say that some of the defending was absolutely comical from our perspective, but you are right, their keeper made 3 absolute worldie saves that would go in any other day. Won't begrudge Reading mind you, well worth the win IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can play all the nice football you want in the middle third but without a good foundation behind it you will always struggle to get above mid table.

He certainly deserves the time to achieve that, and we've definitely progressed from the garbage from last year. See who (if anyone) we sign in January. Need a top centre half as bare minimum if we want to have any ambitions of making the top 6 this season. Think that'll be a more realistic ambition for 18/19 mind you.

I thought it was the thug they got Hull (can't even remember his name now) or is he still injured? Oh no, wasn't Mancienne the top quality CB they had? Better than Keogh they told us.

Shackell would walk into most team’s back four in this league. And he’s fifth choice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I feel we probably need someone better to tutor Worrall who has a very bright future indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
