Sylla had a very solid game.
Could be interesting to see him in with Westwood and Delph when he's back.

Set inside love??

Let me show you the way.....

Does anyone else disappear to another part of the house and stop listening because you think nothing else will happen in the game if you do that? 
Tried that before, definitely doesn't work. Had my car written off today so this has cheered me up no end.

There appears to have been some sort of mistake. Despite everyone telling me this was a six-pointer we only seem to have been awarded three.

I wonder how many references will be made to dropping the soap?   That used to really wind him up.

Relieved. Simple as. Looking forward to seeing Sylla next week after all the good comments on here.
After questioning Lambert's selection earlier I have to concede that he is a tactical genius.

Nothing spectacular. But tidy, played himself sensibly into the game, and made himself available all the time.

Fucking get in!

Christ I aged ten years watching that. I felt sick from the minute I came back up after half time up until the 92nd minute where strangely I knew we had done it.

Lowton was iffy, Baker so-so, Vlaar and Clark dominant. The midfield had a nice balance, although Bannan gave the ball away on two critical occassions, we largely bossed possession.

The only really chance they had all game was where the Reading player should have squared it but put it straight down Guzans throat.

The Goose was excellent in commanding his box too although I cannot recall a meaningful save he made.

We on the other hand should have scored two or three more. Andi had chances, Charlie only needed to roll it along the deck after a Christian pull back.

All in all, we were actually pretty comfortable, with Reading being pretty abysmal.

The crowd was great! We went bloody mental when we scored, with the Reading fans having only just stopped mincing to some fruity goal music when we equalised. There was a real surge and the Reading fans wilted.

The second goal was excellent. We kept the ball so well and patiently moved it and the Gabby smashed it home.

I feel drained, but those beers tonight will taste extra sweet.

We're only six points off 10th!

I noticed that...a salutory reminder of just how shit the Premier League is this year

Great finish from Gabby.
Next week will be tough, time to really get behind the team. We owe 'Arry one

Yep not spectacular but absolutely vital.
