Isn't that what we paid for him? And now he's got an extra season of prem experience, it sounds reasonable tbh.


Sounds reasonable, but it'll remain undisclosed like the Kebe deal so we'll never know

On Cameron Jerome. Have heard things could be happening. But still seems to depend on Stoke bringing in a replacement #readingfc

Didn't Stoke just sign Arnautovic?

We were consistently mugged off last summer.

I think he showed himself to be out of his depth last season and I'm surprised he's still at the same value as he was this time last year tbh.

Played as a winger / just behind the striker a lot rather than an out and out striker.

I think Bridge has been decent so far, but both full-back positions are a weakness in reality. We have enough of them, but just none which are really good enough!??

3 of our 4 full backs are full internationals? Kelly and Bridge are definitely good enough at this level. Could probably do with a left footed CB like Kilgallon as Mapps is off.

billy1990 Mariappa has not got enough credit this year


'Greed. Big fan of his. Classy player, one of the very few players we're likely to lose if we go down.

Mariappa was a consistent performer last year, made up for a lack in height in good positional play and did relatively ok, we will have to get some cover at centre half now, would like to see a versatile defender come in, so a midfielder, striker and centre half could be the positions we are looking into

Yes would definitely be good to see another CB in, along with a quality full-back. Adkins appears to see Kelly as perfect back-up for the bench, as presumably he can come on and play either side if required. Cummings and Gunter are both good lads, but not up to the standards we are seeking IMO.

Oh good. So it's our New Dawn here at Reading and so far deadline day has been more about the players we will lose than bring in?

Great.

We could re-call Michael Hector from his loan at Aberdeen, been very impressive by all accounts.

We are hearing several Premier League clubs are weighing up a move for Reading winger Garath McCleary before the transfer window slams shut.
