Back at it in Getafe! Interesting shape from Reading so far - kinda lining up in a 3421 that crunches down in to a 4231 also at times. This has to be the deepest I've seen Lane play for Reading Ben and I will be live streaming and doing a pod recording session for the second half of this game!

I fully moved to the opinion that Leam needs to go today unfortunately This has been the longest wait between in person Reading games for me in a long time and seeing them out on the field you can see just how little control Leam has over this side Basics are missed. Respect is gone

Fun chat this week with lots to debate - this could have gone on for another hour honestly Trying to keep things level right now with pros and cons but it can be tricky when the attacking play isn't super exciting

I ran some napkin maths on Leam Richardson's first 16 games of 2026 Average xG for of 0.88 for Leam vs 1.16 (still not great) for Noel Hunt in the first 16 games of 2025 I criticized Noel a lot during and after that period so what does this say about Leam? Simple - He doesn't know what he's doing

Have you noticed that #readingfc seem to be playing far more of the ball in their own half than the opposition's, even when they have the majority of possession? Trying to piece together what it is that Leam wants, and I'm wondering if Liverpool 24/25 is the blueprint youtube.com/shorts/gf98O...

Discussed the Port Vale equalizer on the pod this week, but it's always easier with a visual! Burns gets caught on the wrong side of his defender who is able to assist the goal in a pocket of space. One individual battle goes wrong and... Watch the pod on YT now - youtu.be/c9PveXPE2_8?...

Hmmm Kamari Doyle and Kadan Young seem to be playing well and finding space in midfield... Better get them off so as not to compromise our defensive line, which is set 40 fathoms deep 🤦

@webberross.bsky.social on your cliche talk. I hate the one “we could have scored ie 4.” If we had scored the first one the other chances would have have never of happened. As the game would have been completely different. Eg ko after the first goal

Ross Webber @webberross.bsky.social · 18/02/2026
This was an odd game to rate because I thought the game situation and a few forced subs in key spots stopped any #readingfc players from really excelling tonight, but I also liked the aggression and desire a good number of them showed

Seeing #readingfc START in a 4-2 or 2-4 buildup when low far more since the new full backs have joined. Gives Reading some flexibility to beat the press The key though, as seen in the last frame is that Roberts has a trigger to leave the buildup and head into wide space as a target for a long ball

Yiadom's side of the field on Saturday was responsible for 57% of Orient's total generated xG after the full back took a yellow card in the opening stages. As I mentioned on the pod, I don't mind a well taken professional foul, but some of the yellows hurt #readingfc youtube.com/shorts/iPdlu...

I really do think Dorsett has been one of the most reliable players for #readingfc in 25/26 He's obviously not attack minded so Leam has found him a role that suits in the 3-2 buildup, and without the ball, he is statistically the best defensive dueler in the team Most improved in 2025 for sure
041
Ross Webber @webberross.bsky.social · 01/01/2026
55% of Reading's total xG today came from one man: Daniel Kyerewaa Absolutely fantastic signing from #readingfc - one of their best in years Every single time he gets the ball, Reading end up at least 20 yards further away from their own net no matter what the outcome is Such a positive force
