We can’t keep clean sheets.

Got the second half to come yet. Bound to concede on 46 minutes

I have never known such a mentally and physically weak Reading side. I gather Mannone was injured in a collision in training, We know Popa was injured in training. Presumably Barrow and Blackett were also injured in training. So only the four then :roll:

Baffled by Aluko starting. Baffled by Bodvarsson not starting. Baffled by the disappearance of Blackett who started the season well. Disappointed to see Gunter's continued presence displacing Yiadom. Concerned by Kelly and Swift both starting together, although at least Swift is actually in his only credible position behind the striker. Concerned about Bacuna actually putting in any sort of competent performance. Disappointed to see no start for Sims.

Pleased to see Walker start though. Pleased to see Meite getting more game time. Delighted to see no starts for Meyler or McShane. And I like Kelly, even if he's not in great form. Think he's been our best (LMFAO low bar) midfielder so far. Pleased to see Rinomhota make the bench.

Given how dreadful we are in the second half of games under Clement I would definitely take the point from this game.

Given we've only got two from six games, I would jump at a 50% increase in our points from another away game.

Aluko should have squared that to Kelly.

Great backheel from a short corner from Swift and a top cross from Aluko.

Surprised to see Kelly in the hole and Swift in centre of midfield.

Not sure what surprises me more. Ilori scoring or Aluko with the assist.

At least Swift is showing some creativity today. He is talented. He just hides that talent very well.

Yes it was...by the skin of our teeth
A number of teams just above us in the table are winning. We really need to hold on here.
