Tony Le Mesmer Royal Biscuitman For the record, I don't think we have any lazy or non committed players, just players who lack ability
I find it absolutely staggering that someone can have that opinion about the current team. On paper at least, this is one of the best teams that we have ever had. Only from 2005-08 have we had a better one. They are gutless in the extreme.
So it's motivation then (which I also said, but was chopped off in the quote), which is where the manager, coaching staff and possibly even club captain should step in and do something about. I sense the club captain is demotivated himself though.
I remember Reading teams of the recent pass who were the fittest in the league and would often win games in the last 10 minutes as their opponents were worn down..... now we are the ones who appear to be worn out in the last 10 minutes.
