Adam Federici has warned Reading’s Championship rivals that one of them will be on the wrong end of footballing master-class soon.
The 24-year-old goalkeeper feels that even though the 21st-placed Royals haven’t got going in the league so far this season, a big result is just around the corner.
And the Australian international would love it if the team could put it all together against manager Brendan Rodgers’ old side Watford this Saturday at Madejski Stadium (3pm kick-off).
The confident 6ft 2ins keeper said: “I’m sure in the future there will be teams that will cop six or seven from us because some of the football we’ve been playing has been superb.
“We’re just waiting for that win big win to get our confidence back and we can go on from there.
“The boys have got a lot to prove and I really do believe that in the next few games someone’s going to get four or five nil from us.
“Slowly but surely it’s all coming together. It’s only eight games in and it’s a long way to go.
“We have so much talent in this group and we all just need to click together for the full 90 minutes.”
After the defeat some fans have heavily criticised Northern Irishman Rodgers after Royals have managed just one win, three draws and suffered four defeats in the league.
But Federici admitted that anyone calling for the manager to be sack was wrong.
“That’s a bit ridiculous,” confessed Federici.
“Brendan’s a fantastic manager and I don’t think managers ever come into a job straight away and get it right.
“It took a few years for Steve Coppell to get everything right here and everyone needs to be patient, the results will come the way things are set up here and we got a preview of that in the first 45 on the weekend.”
I notice the amount of goals we're going to score against this team keeps going down during the interview. First it's 6 or 7 nil then 4 or 5 nil. What's in the next exclusive Fed interview "someone is going to take a real 1-0 beating soon"
