Reading must be more gutted than us, strong team out against Arsenal's reserves and they lost 7-5 after being 4-0 up. Went to extra time too so they'll be knackered and lacking in any morale.
at least they put in the effort which is more than we seemed to do tonight and they were a bit unlucky - blatent penalty denied when 4-1 up - the anount of added time to allow arsenals 4th goal but yes they will be hurting and can only help us. Walcott was class tonight playing through the middle - so much better there than playing out wide
They scored 5 goals at HOME and didn't even get a draw, that's a kick in the bollocks. And quite a few of those Arsenal players didn't even have hairs on their chins.
Another positive point...team selection has just got a hell of a lot easier for Nigel.....sorry Cortese/Reed.
