Very please with the result, nothing much in between the two teams today, thought we created some good chances in the first half with Reading coming back into it in the second. I think today was a classic example where the second goal is so important, because we never got it we were always vulnerable and looked more and more nervous as the game went on. I think Rogers needs to look at the way we play as this style does'nt suit the players we have, we need to play to the players we have strenghth instead of trying to mould them into a style which is alien to most of them because they are just not comfortable in possession, sometimes we are our own worst enemy with the mistakes we make.

its interesting tht the goal came on the break. we are too slow and predictable when we are holding around their 18 yard box. we dont have the penetration of barca in those situations so maybe we need to develop our break away football more.


Luis Garcia, He drinks sangria
He came from Barca, to bring us Joy
He's five foot seven, he's football heaven
please don't take my Luis away.

Felt sorry for the reading fans all southbound trains cancelled because of metal theft on the line. They had about 10 coaches though so they should be ok. But the train fans have a bus journey home tonight. Nice friendly fans today so hope they get back reasonably quickly.

Thought Suarez was sublime, despite the misses and was really pleased to see Johnson smacking them at the goal whenever he could. Stoked that Sterling has finally broken his duck in the league - may there be many more...

Had exactly the same thought after we scored. I've said it before, in Tiki Taka it is difficult to score even when you have the right players as the opposition half is always congested and less difficult to concede as your half is more open.

I felt that we were better defensively in the last 2 games and yesterday we even had less than the usual high possession we have had. Hopefully, it is because the Tiki Taka is being tweeked by BR and not because of relatively weaker opposition (with regards to our defensive displa)y. We'll find out quickly with the upcoming matches, but good to have 2 clean sheets.
