Much better. To be fair, we were improving from 25 minutes on even at 442, but once Cameron dropped back at that stage we started to boss the game, 5 minutes later we seemed to drop Cameron back further and from then on we were in complete control.
That back four needs serious protection or we need to always play three at the back, I feel.
Reading's goal was simple for them. We cam't play Barbet and Leistner as a duo on the halfway line and spread out. Barca or City can try that stuff, we can't. That was a poor twenty-five first minutes by Warburton, not sure what he was thinking, but we're back in it now with Eze and Manning in the game and Ejaria denied the freedom he's enjoyed before.
