Preseason Friendly 23/24 | The Official Match Thread | Reading FC v Swansea City FC

[A4Jack]

Nothing other than a 4-0 win and fist pumps at 4:50 will suffice. Oh and at least 85 short passes for Grimes.

In all seriousness Reading in a bit of a mess so good performance helpful all round

Well he's got a goal. Just the fist pumps now and we are all good

 

[K23]

We've certainly upped the tempo and positivity since half time, some great quick passing to set up that 4th goal.

Matty Grimes makes it four after some lovely one touch play on the right side of their box.
Ntcham gets it near the spot and slips it out to Grimes who has time to take a touch and find the bottom corner.

 

[Pegojack]

Who got no. 4?

Edit: Grimes!

 

[Swanjaxs]

Who got no. 4?

Grimes

The scorers aside I have been genuinely impressed with Abdulai, he has been positive attacking and hasn't shirked his defensive duties either.
Seems to be consistently making the right decisions too.

Darling tries a cheeky one from the halfway line :lol:

How long before he's nicknamed Aberdulais?

A zeems like a good nickname, Mike.

4-0 up I wonder how long before we see Joe and Josh as we try to get a few minutes into their legs?

Better second half.

Does O'Connell really not know what the Reading fans are upset about or is he just pretending? The man does zero research for preseason. Nice work if you can get it.

When he Falls

 

[bakajack]

Yates puts it across the box for Ntcham but he blasts it over.

 

[K23]

Surprised Duff has left the first changes so late with a 4-0 lead?

 

[bakajack]

73mins gone and Joe and Josh come on to get a few minutes under their belt.
Ginnelly comes on for Piroe and Allen on for Fulton.
