    Reading efficiency

    84 minutes gone against Blackburn
    34% possession
    5 shots
    4 on target
    4 GOALS!!!

    That’s impressive use of the ball when in possession and the scored in the first minute.

    They are outstanding stats, much the same as against us. They just soak it up and BHAM!

    Yeah, they save their energy to attack, not run round like us. Defend when it counts in the last third.....

    ObvIously we wouldn't be as good at it as Reading but maybe we should use our newly found skills In a different way

    Instead of going at the opposition for the first half and tiring ourselves out, perhaps we could sit back a bit and turn up the heat for the last 35 mins of the second half instead
    Sitting back and holding on hasn't been one of our strengths in this league but We do have a better defence and midfield so it might work in some games against the lesser teams

    They’ve also only conceded 3 goals all season and 2 of those were last night.

    How much of it is tactical and how much quality of player? We could potentially adopt their tactics and lose every game 4nil.

    I was going to add O/T to the thread title as I thought it was about this:
