We’re at home against a team who isn’t pushing for promotion. That means we play a back four and Morgan comes into the side. I would assume McGeady comes in too for Williams as I doubt Jonny will be able to start 2 games in quick succession. Unfortunate, as he showed what he adds to us.
With Aneke only getting a handful of minutes on Tuesday, he will have enough in him to start. As I would anticipate Hemed also pushing hard with being rested in midweek. If Bonne is on the bench, expect him to come on with 30 minutes or so to go.
Thinking probably a very similar team to the one we have seen us play on the weekend games.
Shame in a way as I think Sarr deserves to start, his range of passing and control on the ball allows us to keep possession better and build rather than hitting it a bit longer. However, Pearce has been excellent for us since the return and was so close to getting another goal on Tuesday.
Whatever team selection Bow makes, this is a must win game, and one I feel we will.
Team I‘d like to see:
Phillips Matthews Lockyer Sarr Doughty Field Cullen Morgan Williams Aneke Bonne
Yeah pretty much this. Don't know about the result. I think teams have figured out our 4-4-2. Millwall didn't really get out of second gear and pretty much shut us down.
Our season is going to hang on the next 3 games. We absolutely cannot go into the final game away at Leeds needing something. Lets go out and win two of our next 3 against beatable opposition. COYRs.
We are now in the 'must win' or, at the very least, 'must not lose' stage if we entertain realistic hopes of avoiding relegation.
I would be tempted to give Josh Davison a game if Bonne is too knackered to start. I think he has the ability to move the Reading defenders around more than Hemed or Aneke and has shown, particularly against West Brom, that he can mix it physically too. Another consideration is that Reading will almost certainly have prepared for various combinations of Hemed, Aneke and Bonne so a 'surprise factor' might go in our favour.

so a 2-1 loss and the famous " we go again 3 finals to come "
Not confident at all but desperately hoping for a 1-0 win. I fear if we drop into the bottom 3 we won't get out.
