  • On the stream just heard the trainer telling him to run harder in the post match warm down. So don't worry all is well.
    Lazy fucker, get rid !
  • Thought he was anonymous in the game today. Not really getting the hype 
  • Good read and very encouraging, especially the part about playing as an 8.

    I wonder if Jones has signed Knibbs to play with Coventry in midfield as that box to box player while Coventry covers, and has other plans for the 10? Knibbs played as a central midfielder almost every game last season, was mainly used as an attacking midfielder prior to that in 23/24:


    Some of that is an artifact of how transfermrkt tracks positions.  Reading played a lot of 433 formations.  Knibbs played in the midfield 3 so was listed as a central midfielder but he was midfielder who played the most forward positionally and had the freedom to drift centrally in attack with the other midfielders covering.  It was kind of like a hybrid of an attacking midfielder and a central midfielder.

    It will be interesting to see if Jones uses him in the Berry AM role from last year or if we will see a more fluid midfield formation this year
    True, he did play on the right hand side of a midfield 3, his heat map and line ups show that. 

    I'd quite like to see us play a 433, Coventry in that defensive role and then Knibbs on the right and Donley on the left if we pull that move off (wishful thinking) on a side note, Coventry's heat map BTW, my word, some player.

    NEVER EVER given a shit about us, so why would the BBC check our name is spelt properly before publishing?

    John Reith must be turning in his grave.
