GONE - Manset to FC Sion

[2.8 lita injection]

Shame he has gone as he had potential, i remember watching him a few times when he looked the best player on the pitch but a week later the worst.

Probably with us at the wrong time (on an upward curve), still reckon he will make it.

[JamieY26]

Not too fussed about this. A good player to watch and showed moments of real class, but he was blowing out of his a*se after 15 minutes and afte half a season there was absolutley no change. Hope he does well and would like t see him back in the english leagues soon. Would be a cracking player for someone like Barnsley, Millwall etc

[SHORT AND CURLY]

I thought he was poo bar a couple of fleeting appearances.
Its always sad to see a Reading player go to pastures new, however he will not really be missed on the pitch where it really matters.

[SLAMMED]

Sacrificed to fill this year's black hole.

Racist

[CayeneMatt]

Getting done for DD is not the Reading way, especially when he got leary with the police. Game over at that point.

Nothing wrong with filling a black hole...

The brace against Millwall was great, however the only reason I'm remotely sad about him leaving is that he is a oxf*rd beast on FIFA and will be sorely missed in that respect. 97 strength or something?!

[Royal Ginger]

Drink drivers are selfish pricks who deserve every bit of bad luck they get. My opinion of him as a footballer faded into insignificance after that. Good riddance.

[royalsteve]

Thought we had a real player on our hands after the Millwall game, and he played really well at Leicester the following week but seemed to just fade completely after that.

i think fitness didnt help, he seemed to be one of those players that needed to play every week to keep his fitness up

curtain fell with the drink drive issue

good luck to him, shame thought in time and enough games he might do ok and thought a loan to championship or league 1 club would do him good

[Avon Royal]

Glad he's gone. No real reflection on him as a player, I just found 18,000 middle class white people shouting "Beast" at a large black gentleman really cringe-worthy.

[Barry the bird boggler]

Was there any fee involved?

[madreadingfan]

Will always remember him for tearing Mills apart against Leicester Away. He was class that day.

Agree with this

[Great Knolly]

Clearly he had plenty of talent. But positionally he was often all over the place , which may be one of the reasons he was often bought on late in the game. Perhaps Brian worked with him for long enough for him to think he didn't take direction very well (For instance, at least Noel does what he's told). He's only young. He might learn. But not all players do.

[JS28ZoD]

Was there any fee involved?

Bump on this. Does anyone have any information on the deal?

[LoyalRoyal22]

Not announced on the OS

[Blakey's Right Peg]

Looked a decent player who just wasn't enough of an athlete.

Thanks for the goals, some were absolute beauts. Best of luck at Sion, best for you and us.

This.

Always thought he looked quite good on the ball, he was just always blowing out of his arse after two minutes.

Manset showed talent between his feet. His problem IMO was between his ears.

He's gonna be Iron
Like a Lion
In Sion

Wouldn't it be more like;

He's gonna be Eon
Like a Leon
In Sion?
