CLOSE GAME, BUT KLASNIC CAME UP WITH THE GOODS ON THE 90TH MIN TO SECURE THE 3 POINTS.

BIT UNHAPPY WITH JAROLIM GETTING SENT OFF, CAUSE HE IS A KEY PLAYER IN MY MIDFIELD, SO NOT HAVING HIM FOR 2 GAMES COULD BE A BIG LOSS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PARK.

I KNEW THIS WOULD BE A CLOSE GAME, BUT I DID EXPECTED MY TEAM TO SCRAPE THE WIN, WITH DEL PIERO INJURED IN TRAINING AND OUT FOR 5 WEEKS, LE FONDRE STARTS IN HIS PLACE.

View attachment 272371

LE FONDRE'S 1ST START FOR ME AND HE LOOKS LIKE HE WANTS TO CHALLENGE FOR A SPOT IN THE 1ST TEAM BY SCORING THE WINNING GOAL, CERTAINLY BOOSTED HIS CHANCES HERE.

CAPITAL ONE CUP 3RD ROUND

MAN CITY 1 - 2 READING

WHEN I SEEN THE DRAW FOR THIS TIE, I WAS THINKING I'M OUT OF THIS CUP ALREADY.

PRESS CONFERENCE

MANY QUESTIONS WAS ASKED TO THE READING MANAGER INCLUDING:

Q: MANY PEOPLE EXPECTED YOUR TEAM TO BE IN THE BOTTOM 3 BY THIS STAGE OF THE SEASON, BUT YOUR TEAM SEEMS TO BE STANDING THERE GROUND IN 5TH PLACE. DID YOU THINK THIS COULD BE POSSIBLE WHEN YOU TOOK THE JOB?

A: WITH THE QUALITY OF THE TEAM I HAVE AT THE MOMENT ANYTHING SEEMS POSSIBLE.

Q: AT THE START OF THE SEASON YOU MADE SOME BIG CHANGES TO THE READING TEAM WITH PLAYERS IN/OUT, DO YOU THINK THIS IS THE REASON FOR YOUR TEAMS SUCCESS ?

A: I BROUGHT IN SOME BIG EXPERIENCED PLAYERS THAT ARE USED TO PLAYING TOP FLIGHT FOOTBALL, SO I KNEW WE WOULD BE SAFE IN THIS DIVISION, BUT THEN THE TEAM SEEMED TO JUST CLICK.

Q: SO ITS NOW JANUARY, IS THERE ANY PLAYERS YOU ARE LOOKING AT FOR YOUR READING TEAM IN THE TRANSFER MARKET?

A: MAYBE 1 OR 2, BUT WHO KNOWS

Q: READING ARE IN THE CAPITAL ONE CUP SEMI FINAL AGAINST LIVERPOOL, YOU MUST BE EXITED TO HAVE MADE IT THIS FAR?

A: ITS EXITING NOT JUST FOR ME, BUT FOR THE HOLE CLUB.
