A little disappointing that Yang and Abbott didn't get a few minutes, but a tidy performance even if a couple of players looked noticeably rusty The one noticeable thing is how we've tightened up on little things, for example a throw in wasn’t a momentary pause before conceding possession like it regularly was last season
Scrappily edited highlights: I wonder what the plan is with Vuskovic this season? Big aerial threat, but it's a big ask at the back.
One game for an 18yr old against a keen, but limited Championship opposition, is difficult to make judgement on, but from what I have seen he looks more than ready. We only have 3 good CB's in Cuti, VDV and Danso (This jury is out on Dragusin and Ben looks like he will revert to LB). I'd be inclined to keep the lad in the squad, rather than loan him out.
Reading aren't even that good they are league 1...I would have a good look at him in pre season games when we are coming up against the better sides and wait and see, we do need 4 reliable centre backs maybe 5 if we do sometimes play with 3 under Frank. I would be very happy for him to be the 5th and hopefully get some game time in cups and from the bench.
Vuskovic is surely going to be the fourth for the first half of the season, given Dragusin is out until December
