Such a frustrating evening yesterday. I thought they'd park the bus and foul but was naive on all the time wasting from the first minute.
Hopefully they will try and play football in the second leg and we can play our game more. I spoke to a Reading fan after the game and he said they had to play that way otherwise we would have thrashed them and I suppose that is true. I didn't enjoy the game, it was too frustrating for so many reasons.
Obita had a good game and stopped Fredericks in the main crossing, his absence together with McShane out can only help, I know I am massively biased but surely the best team overall will progress.

It was a frustrating game on Saturday, not helped by a nervous crowd. We started quite direct to Martin - who did manage to win a lot - but no-one was getting on to the second ball. Aluko was poor and Johansen quiet. We looked much better with Kebano on the pitch and controlled the game towards the end. If only one of our earlier chances had gone in!
I think we can get a result playing the same way we did in final games of the season without Martin. We have got a lot of options in that area - I would put Sess, Kebano and Cyriac ahead of him.
