Starting XI for Reading

[Forever Fulham]

                      Bettinelli

Voser     Bodurov       Burn      Stafylidis

                      Hoogland

     David         Hyndman     Williams R.

                          Ruiz

                     McCormack


Let's see McCormack playing where he is most likely to do what we bought him to do - score goals. Ryan Williams was impressive enough in his two previous outings to deserve a further opportunity. Hoogland looks considerably better in midfield than he did at right-back. Ruiz may, as many believe, find the Championship too frenetic, but we surely have to try him out and see. Personally, I think that he would justify his place in the side. Parker was meant to be our midfield general, but Millwall apart, he has failed to dictate the play. We need better than he is offering and, in Hyndman and David, we have two players who can do so.

This is a tasty lineup for sure!

Stick with the diamond, dominate the midfield, and add the width with Williams or Roberts in the second half.

-----------------Bettinelli------------------
Voser-----Bodurov-------Burn-------Stafylidis
------------------Hoogland-----------------
------------Parker-------Hyndman-----------
-------------------David--------------------
-----------Rodallega------McCormack--------

Subs: Kiraly, Hutchinson, Christensen, Eisfeld, Roberts, Williams, Smith.

like it, but swap parker for esfield, or Roberts, and start smith with McCormack, a 40 goal partnership should not be ignored, even if most of it was ross, having some chemistry might help. also, give ruiz at least a chance, I think he has a point to prove, and let's at least see how he does.

So basically you like that team but you'd change half of it lol?
