Reading have achieved a lot more then us in the last quarter of a century. really? most tin pot club with mk dons they both would be finalists every year . hardly anyone in reading attends there games , when i last went lovely sunny day in august and there was less than 10000 of them in the ground ,didnt hear them all game. if luongo wants to end his football career there then he clearly has no ambitions , at our club we have a massive fan base and at least are aiming for promotion , what will he have there? bottom 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blatter Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 1 hour ago, edinburghowl said: I don’t get the fuss about Luongo to be honest. He has finished once in the top half of the championship in his entire career and even that was a 12th placed finish. A decent player but a bottom of the championship or top of L1 level player and that’s it. He’s also in a position that it’s relatively easy to replace and he had injury problems throughout his whole time at the club. We’ve done the right thing in not paying over the odds to keep him. In L1 he wasn’t worth breaking the bank for. If Reading is where he ends up it sums up his career as a bottom half of the championship player. Absolutely replaceable They’re all cr@p once they’ve joined another club aren’t they. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s not crap and he contributed in his time at the club but Luongo is not a match winner or an instrumental and irreplaceable player like Bannan for example. We wouldn’t be able to replace someone like Bannan. Luongo however is replaceable, we offered him a contract and he turned it down. We move on. To be honest given his age and injuries in his time at the club and his wages I’m surprised we offered him a new deal. Decent player but like I said replaceable and not worth breaking the bank for. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you I wanted Luongo to stay because i think he's a decent player, when fit, but of the 3 in CM he's the one i mind losing least because of his injury record 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, good player but not a match winning creative one. Was offered a contract based on that and also, quite rightly, his fitness issues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Road Runner Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 Out of Bannan, Byres or Luongo it would be Luongo I’d prefer to lose. Decent player but only played I think it’s 45% of the games over his contract and isn’t reliable - that’s why he will be on trial with Reading. I think Byres will now take his role because he likes to get stuck in and is reliable. Vaulks will come in and I believe this will be a better midfield than last season and free Bannan up more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you need to think about what you post. Thinking about it,thinking is a thing you maybe you shouldn’t think about thinking about, what do you think about my thinking? Do you think I’m over thinking things? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
