Is he left footed, if not I file it alongside most of your "5pm announcement" posts

Good player, always looked solid and one of Readings better performers. I’d happily have him at the club.

Right footed and "other position" Right Back according to Transfermarkt.

 

[David O'Day]

Seems to be right footed, enough of them already

Yeah, I saw that. We need a 2nd LCB first

Oh, it’s George..

Oh, it’s George..

That reminds me sheafisgod finally fucked off!

Do we ? Binks hasn't played.yet because Lati has been good in that role and if needed then Bidwell can cover
He's another very highly rated player and we would be foolish not to sign him

My boy George. I got faith. Don't let me down. Other people tell me I'm a fool in love for believing you

yeah, we do

It's why we are looking at Kitching

Lati can play there but it's also best to have a left footed player at LCB as the passing lanes are better and much easier.

I totally agree but if we are being priced out of the Kitching deal then signing another young highly rated defender makes sense surely ?

no, there are other left footed cb's out there and we are well stocked with right footed cb's

So sign Holmes and look at the loan market for a lcb?

nah, we are better off owning a lcb of our own and we are well covered at rcb

We only get 5 loans and want to keep 2 for january

 

[SkyblueDad]

Don’t know much about Holmes but if he is better than what we have, gettable & affordable, why not.

 

[Deity]

Thomas and Lats can play RCB…. I’d only add to that position if it was a potential future star, not just another squad player.

we still need LCB, Attacker, 2 x CM before any other positions ….

 

[Balli001]

Maybe Holmes is considered as a central of a 3 l. Gives us time to find a permanent lcb while binks is here

He’s only just over 6ft … I prefer the central defender to be taller and potentially dominant in the air …. That said you could see Thomas transition to that role.

A lot of Reading fans comments i read suggested thats his best position

 

[Northeast sky blue]

The other centre back at Reading, Tom Mcyintyre would be a decent shout

 

[robbiethemole]

Thought Binks was a LCB? I know he’s on loan but he hasn’t played yet

 

[larry_david]

Not in Reading squad

 

[Jamieb87ccfc]

Not in Reading squad

I really rate him, would be a great signing and cover us plenty of cover at the back.

 

[skyblueelephant76]

Not in Reading squad

He hasn't been in the squad since the first game of the season.
