Team for tuesday

[Big Ern]

This is shocking. We need a new defence. How can we let in 4 goals at home?

This could really put the pressure on McD as Arsenal will surely go on and win now. I know it is only the league cup, but the manner of our capitulation is shocking.

Starting to think McD is out of his depth now.

[Royal Lady]

Yep, the game shouldn't have come down to that last goal. We should have had this sewn up early on. I'm gutted.

[NTRoyal]

More annoying is this should have been an excellent platform to push on from for our season now we have knackered it.

[Royal Rebel]

Our defence is absolutely awful.......We lose this and well be the lauguring stock of the league tomorrow after a 4-0 lead !!! Ledge has lost every single ball played to him tonight and the Pog hasn't won a single header!!! Absolute pants.

He hasnt the tatical mind to close a game out

[peterroyal76]

Same for the last three weeks, after an hour we have nothing in centre mid. Thats where the first change should of been.

[AbovetheI]

Don't worry, we're playing Church up front

[Avon Royal]

The players and Brian are at fault for this, they have to put it right.

I said that this morning.

No change of tactics, same old hoof it and hope. Shite defenders. Where's Pearce? Even if we win this now, it's been a terrible display of defending and tactics imo.

[peterroyal76]

Church is on, Reading will lose! We needed Guthrie to keep the ball!

You're a prick if you think we'll lose because of Simon Church.

He should have done it against swansea 0-2 up but he didnt

[The Royal]

"Daily Telegraph football correspondent Henry Winter at Reading v Arsenal: "Amusing....Giroud and Coquelin threw their shirts into crowd thinking game was over. Had to request them back for extra time"

idiots

[Simon's Church]

On the plus side, Tabb and Leigertwood should be nice and fresh for QPR at the weekend.

[JayRoyal]

WOEFUL. I'm getting shit from all the Arsenal fans now.

[DOYLERSAROYALER]

BM tactically naive.....brought on 2 strikers and a winger from a winning position ...should have bolstered up central midfield or put defender on ...

[John Madejski's Wallet]

I still cant get over the fact arsenal are better in the air and at set pieces than us.

[soggy biscuit]

Lose this now and it will become legendary

[ManchesterRoyals]

Great we let a 4-0 lead slip, extra time and the biggest game of the season coming up at the weekend

Just oxf*rd Great

The sad thing is that a first-half performance that could have really renewed our confidence ahead of two massive league games has been wipred away by another failure and god knows what this will do to our morale.

[leicsRoyal]

Tabb looks dead on his feet!
