He'd quickly become the new scapegoat I think. Couldn't stop Reading conceding 2 against Leicester, or Chelsea, in the last two U23 games he played - and we all know how influential the rightback/right wing-back position is, so it was clearly his fault.
In all seriousness, I wish he'd been given a few more appearances this season - unfortunately for him because every match has turned out important, Stam wasn't risking him. And because he's ever present on the senior bench, he hasn't had too much opportunity at U23 level either. If we'd made sure of playoffs earlier, he might have got a couple of games - now we might not get it sorted till last game.
the fact that all the previous managers havent properly tried to replace Gunter (except S. Kelly possibly) says a lot.. and Watson has played what 90 mins of first team football and you'd replace a player with 400+ appearances for that? nothing against watson, i want him to do well..
