Handsome ManIan RoyalHandsome Man He is looking quite good against Ipswich without coming too close to scoring. It is certainly a better performance today than any that Hunt has produced this year in Lita's place. I am firmly on Lita's side - why should he wnat to come back to Reading when he is being kept out of the side for non-football reasons?
Surely the fact he looked about as likely to score as me for 18 months constitutes quite good footballing reasons?
He scored against Derby didn't he? And he hasn't played too many other games.
Lita 14(4) 2 & 3(1) 0
Long 10(22) 3 & 5(15) 1
16 is a fair few games to do something. Neither are great, but at least we're sure Long wants to be here and will try. Ideally I'd like to see us offload Lita in January and Long in the summer with Mooney & Church coming through and a nice quality tall goalscorer to come in and challenge NHunt.
