Simon's Church Clarke looks very impressive considering he didn't even seem to start much for the u18s last season

I thought Ehibhatiomhan was equally impressive.

Always good updates R&R.

So did Clarke travel all the way back from Huddersfield yesterday, then back up to Stoke today ? Don't suppose anyway knows, but fair play to him.

Sunday's U23 home game against Nottm Forest switched to Madejski Stadium with a new kick-off time of 7 pm. Open to fans and - I think - free entrance.

Meh.

Had a few chances, including some goalmouth scrambles, but couldn’t stick anything in the net.

Forest’s first was excellent and their second was a very stupid penalty to give away - defender went through the back of a striker with his back to goal who was moving away from goal.

Forest had a senior goalkeeper playing and I think that benefited them a lot, but they also had a very dangerous number 10.

We lined up in quite a fluid 3-4-1-2 in the first half (possibly my least favourite formation) before switching to a 3-5-1-1/3-3-1-3 in the second half when Clarke and Bristow went off. We put some decent moves together but didn’t get any clear cut chances really, aside from perhaps those scrambles I mentioned.

Highlights from our players were Osorio, who was tidy without really “running” the game the way that someone like Kuhl or Kelly could do; Camara, who was playing behind the striker(s) and had good movement without much of a cutting edge; Clarke, lively and got into some good positions; and Samuels, who I have now seen play three times and each time in a different position (this time he was at centre back, but a bit of a libero).

Probably the most memorable moment was when Forest threatened to counter attack on us after a corner. We only had Samuels and the keeper back. Ball is bouncing around just inside their half. Keeper comes charging right out and ends up running into Samuels, but fortunately Samuels took the ball down and got it clear. Not sure I’ve ever seen a Reading goalkeeper get into the opposition half in open play before!
