After watching Sheffield united against reading last weekend there's a few things I picked up on
1) In George Long they've got a talented but inexperienced keeper who tended to flap at crosses and not command his penalty area
2) They have a very slow defence, especially their centre halves Maguire and Higgingbotham are slow on the turn and if we keep the ball on the deck they will find it hard
3) Tony McMahon is a bit of a free-kick specialist
4) They play 4-4-2 and try to utilise the wings with a lot of Balls coming in to the box from wide, more Boothroyd style than Robins
5) Nick Blackman was their best player last week probably why reading bought him, he made things tick and was the only real pace in their team
I'm confident we can come away with they win tonight or at least a point. Oh and Michael Doyle is still bang average
