Aaron Tshibola

[Pepe the Horseman]

Everyone develops at a different rate,

Tanner, though, seems to be having a much better time of it with Plymouth.

He's barely played has he?

[ZacNaloen]

managed to get two goals already though iirc

One of them a peach of a volley.

Not the most of glamorous of clubs, or indeed cities, but I'd like to echo a hearty +1 to those posters thanking the OP for dropping by.

Oh don't get me wrong leon, County Durham is not without its charms at this time of year.

fair point

I was pleasantly surprised by Hartlepool when I went for work this week.

He is now my favourite Reading player.

I reckon we have a star on our hands.

......but does he do what he wants

[LoyalRoyal22]

Really glad we didn't sign Chalobah. So nice to see in the middle of our new look team we still have one of our own. Looks a real prospect, he was brilliant last night. Just gives us something we don't have in midfield.

I was thinking exactly that on the way home.

We've very little cover in that position. Is inexperienced and lacks physic. Against better players ala McGoldrick last night. Doesn't offer the same defensive cover as Chalobah would have. You can't buy experience etc etc.

[The Real Sandhurst Royal]

Great game last night against Ipswich.

Tishbola has come of age and has a graet future ahead of him

[Ian Royal]

Samesies.

I was thinking it the morning after transfer deadline day.

[genome]

I take back what I said about him needing a season in League One. He looks the business at this level.

[bagman]

Thought he controlled the game, and recovered well from making the initial mistake that led to their goal, although MacShane had 2 chances to recover. Hope he starts against Derby, but what about Williams? Clarke has challenges all across midfield and attack on who he leaves out. What a change !

So if you can't buy experience, how do you suggest someone attains it? I'd have thought playing games might be a good alternative.

He was partly at fault for their goal but apart from that his performance last night was in no way inferior to the vast majority Chalobah gave in the League last season.

On a semantic point, I think you mean he gives us something we didnt have. We do have it now because he is providing it!

Expectations are high. Booking rate is also high. In the top games the inexperience is going to show. Good managers manage their players well. Contribution of Williams to the team shouldn't be underestimated either. Someone in the team has to do the unrecognised hard graft.
