Match Day Thread Reading U21 v Sunderland U21 - Monday 20th May, 2024 - KO 19:00

Not too late to change our minds!

 

I prefer without tbh

 

Some character on that lad. Must of been tough been told he was getting released, hell of a response

 

shop window affect!

 

2 Taylor goals, 2 Kelly assists.

 

I’d prefer Taylor over Hjelde, no doubt about it

 

had already forgotten about Hjelde

 

Even better one that

 

Toots having a good game here

 

…I wish I had too.

 

Ogunsuyi looks decent but I’m surprised they haven’t given Hemir a run in these fixtures.

 

Their keeper wants chipping ...

... loves wandering out of his box.

 

I like Taylor but hjelde will have the better career

 

Probably. I don’t particularly rate either for the level we’re at but they’re only young. Plenty of time to improve.

 

In hindsight mayenda would have been better off staying in the 23s too

 

With all due respect to Ellis, the reason he's being released is clear as day if you watch Readings goal back. Just leaves his man and allows him to get on the end of the knockdown unmarked. Then when you add in that he wouldn't be as much of an attacking threat at the first team level you end up with a player who is poor defensively and less of a threat in attack.

 

Just scored a 2nd goal is Jack clarke too old too play ?

 

You prefer a left footed winger playing RB at U21 level over a left footed centre back playing LB?? Crazy.

Kelly showing he's the best in this team.

 

Having a great game, along with the Ukrainian lad

 

Hjelde will be a good signing for us, came in at a sh**e time and had to get thrown in. Ive watched him loads at international level for norway u21s and he looked the part. Was class on loan at ross county a few yrs back.

Will be a good player for us at championship level, if we get to the PL when hes with us then he will struggle with the step up

Taylor will hopefully have a cracking career but at best hes a L1 player (n thatll be in a few yrs time)
