Gardener is just that a gardener! He certainly isn’t a footballer no wonder Villa wanted shut of him offer him assistant grounds man post and get someone in the January window who can tackle, head, hold the ball and pass it to a team mate when required as he can’t do any of that!
Macdonald was shocking and I mean absolutely shocking, he left his man for the first goal and he ran away for the second! The second goal oh my......we parted like the Red Sea all of em just ran away from him it was comical to see!
Davies needs to be dropped because he is too comfortable and he thinks he is un droppable?
Bradshaw and Thiam came on second half and they were much better if we had started with the second half team we won have won that game because Reading were quite poor to be fair.
Pearson looks assured as well, for me though Macdonald’s body language even at 0-0 was awful, he looked disinterested and certainly isn’t a Captain, when the chips were down Williams was the one barking at everyone not him and he just stood on his own when they were talking trying to put right the wrongs????
We were unfortunate a couple of times but Hecky does need to stop chopping and changing they just can’t get any sort of rhythm going.
