We weren't very good. Millwall worked hard to stop up playing and the game looked to be headed for 0-0. They get a lucky deflection from a corner, the rub salt into the wound with a breakaway goal following a clear foul we didn't get.

We had one chance all game that Swift hit over the top. We offered very little.

Really need to move Ejaria back into the middle, he`s totally wasted out wide.

Had the team been out on the shant in London last night?

Blatant handball apparently in the build up for the opener as well. Not doing good with referee decisions currently.

What's all this racist chanting about?

Homophobic, there is a difference.

They had plenty of chances second half so they deserved to win ... we were pretty poor particularly second half.

Millwall

Looked the wrong day to try one touch short passing. Heavy pitch. Pretty cold. And Millwall team had far more energy constantly closing down and harrying us.

Apparently for calling the linesman a bent c*nt.

a bit tenous.

Simply beaten by a far better side on the day . Millwall's work rate was exceptional , they worked their socks off and thoroughly deserved their win. We were very poor constantly giving the ball away and never in the game. Several players were well below par with Blackett being the pick with a truly nightmare performance. We move on.

That's what I meant - was it aimed at anyone in particular? Some articles seem to hint it was

How much is that big lad they had upfront? He looked like he knew where the goal was.

Concur. Outplayed.

Nothing stuck upfront. All three useless. Swift and Ejaria didn’t get into it. Once Adam departed we were looking for 0-0. Their pressure paid off. Goal was just one of those that fell kindly in the box. Second goal a break after Puscas screwed up but the game was already pretty much done. Disappointing after Fulham. Missed Joao!!

I know we didnt look like scoring and Millwall were better for most of the game but I have to comment on the tactical decision to take Pele off and bring McCleary on. Really left us exposed. Hope he leaves that experiment behind in London.

Yes I agree we were horribly outplayed. Thought pele was ok for once so yes I was surprised by that too. Everyone just a bit slower and ejaria and swift didn't show their quality like we are used to. Rafael not to blame and made some good saves. We offered nothing going forward.

Pele good for once? He's been quality for the last 8 games or so.

Dreadful performance. Millwall I thought we’re excellent. Went to win every ball, great down the wings and put some great crosses in. Puscas terrible when he came on and at fault for their goal.

Baldock and Swift had two massive chances to put us ahead. Very little for the fans to get excited about.

Biggest cheer of the day was for the two Reading kids who put a shift in to win the relay race at half time!!

Matt Smith

Came from QPR, been around for a while but never really been given a consistent chance

That Bodvarsson chap got a goal too I hear.

I really liked Bod, was really disappointed to see him go

Reality check. The team is a work in progress.

The defeat was self inflicted. Too many wayward passes/poor decisions.

Without someone to hold the ball upfront. Going to struggle to put any opposition under pressure.

Very below par performances there, with credit to Millwall for being well organised both on and off the ball. I didn’t think either team were particularly special but Millwall were worth their 2-0 win. Where we overplayed it, they played it simple...where we were lethargic, they were hurrying our players in possession.

Meite for me was particularly poor, but I guess it’s academic to point him out when no one else was particularly good....but I have....

Raphael and the back four were ‘ok’, everything in front of them looked as if they had been on the piss the night before...*shrugs*.

Thought their home support were pretty non-existent tbh, all in on a bang average day.

From which end?

Imagine going to Millwall with the most lightweight midfield in the league. I get the "don't change a winning team" mantra but come on.. have some common sense

Millwall were closing us down so quickly, and we weren't going to win any long balls against their massive players. So it was obvious we would need to pass the ball quickly around their press. But what did we do? Receive the ball, stand still and wait for Millwall to close us down, and then try to dribble it around 3 players from a standing start. It was men against boys at points.

Rafael - 6

Blackett - 2 normal service has resumed, better rip up that contract offer
Moore - 6 coped with Smith well
Morrison - 6 ditto
Gunter - 5 ineffectual

Pele - 4 lots of mistakes
Swift - 5 too slow
Adam - 6 only player up for it

Ejaria - 5 not a game for fancy tricks
Meite - 4 another poor performance, time to look at other options
Baldock - 5 wrong choice against their massive defenders

Puscas - 4 mistake led to their second goal
Obita - 5
McCleary - 5

I'd line up like this for the next game -

----------------- Rafael
Yiadom Moore Morrison Obita
----------------- Pele
------ Adam --------- Ejaria
---------------- Swift
---------Puscas Baldock

Forget wide players, we don't have the quality

What’s that - one defeat in ten ?
Unless you’re supporting Liverpool, your team is always going to have a dodgy one now and again.
Proof of the team will be how they react

We don’t have the quality for wide players when we just beat the best two home teams in the league with wide players, where three of our four goals came from out wide?
