GOOD NEWS:Reading fc confirm the return of former key player…
Some heroes have established themselves at League One side Reading FC since the start of the 2023/24 campaign, with manager Ruben Selles being adored by many supporters.
Selles didn’t get off to the best start to life at the Select Car Leasing Stadium, but the Royals have done fairly well under him for much of his tenure, with the Spanish manager making the most of the limited resources he’s had to work with.
Some decent additions were made last summer, but they have only been able to make two loan additions in the past two windows, which shows just how little Selles has had to work with.

The players they have brought in since their return to the third tier of English football have helped them though, with the 2023 summer window proving to be a productive one for them despite their various issues.
Lewis Wing probably stands out as one of the best signings, with the player previously attracting interest from Queens Park Rangers, but opting to make the move to Berkshire instead.
Harvey Knibbs has also proved to be a shrewd addition, along with Ben Elliott and Tyler Bindon, and Sam Smith has impressed after his return to the Royals.
Wing’s additions have arguably been the most important though.

Ruben Selles Reading
Wing previously started in Selles’ unsuccessful 4-2-2-2 system and didn’t do a terrible job, all things considered.
Selles has also played with a 4-2-3-1 and 4-1-4-1 formation, but is mainly operating with the latter now, and Wing is currently operating as the deepest player in midfield.
This formula hasn’t always been a success, with Crawley Town finding it way too easy to cut through the Royals’ midfield last Saturday.
