Match Thread: Reading v Villa

Villa were 2 v 1 against McCleary when he ran through for their pen. There's no way he should have gotten there first but did so and and then Cissokho tried to tackle with his left foot instead of his right - obviously because he hasn't got the talent to use his "other" foot - and he made what looked like it could have been a foul. 

Their player has his pen saved - could the keeper have pushed it wide? - and then their striker heads it back over the keeper into the empty net. Alan Hutton was the man lining up alongside their goalscorer whilst the pen was being taken but he couldn't be arsed to follow him in to the box and try to prevent him scoring.

= Terrible defending all around - again! 

Listening to the coverage and they have said all along that Villa are pressing high up the pitch. All adds up to us fading badly at the end and Reading pummelling us into submission as we concede a late losing goal.

Its easy, you just buy players that are worse than you sold and gradually after years of doing this you get like us now.

Before this game kicked off I took a look at the odds on Kodjia scoring anytime and a 1-1 draw. The odds were 18/1 but like a moron I didn't stick the fiver on it. 

Honestly, this team is almost nailed on every game for a 1-1 draw.
