1-3 isn't really a completely fair result but we have to start spending money! Our team has virtually no experience as playing as one team, take todays starting eleven:

 

Fedders - 10

Rosenior - 61 (2) - he's complete shit!

Mills - 2

Bertrand - 4

Pearce - 17 (3)

Cisse - 39 (23)

Tabb - 9 (4)

Karacan - 19

Sigurdsson - 1

Long - 30 (71)

Hunt - 28 (12)

 

Total appearances for Reading - 220 (115)

 

We have nobody to build a team around for example Morgan (appearances for Shf Utd. - 199 (7) :roll:)

To be honest because of this, I disagreed with all the football pundits saying Reading would win the league. They sold all their experienced players, and only have young un-tried players. Honestly from what I heard Swansea killed Reading mid-week, it took a penalty miss and a string of saves from Federici to keep it at 0-0.

 

Newcastle are going well though, Ryan Taylor's goal was awesome today. I thought they'd struggle at Palace but did well.

 

Swansea finally get a win, and Ashley Williams is now our league top scorer :lol:

It's funny how that works though cause we're doing well with a similar situation.

 

Ruddy - Signed this season

Saunders - 18, Appeared in only 2 games before this season

Hutchinson - 18, youngster's first season

Craigen - 32, In his 5th season

Reynolds - 21, In his third season

Coke - Early 20',s Signed this season

Murphey - Still just 18, played a good number of games last season though

O'Brien - Been a regular since January, Only 21.

Hately - Teenager, signed this year

Sutton - 28/29 experienced , in his 2nd season with us.

Forbes - 18, Youth player in his first season

 

We have a new team too, and i think we're gonna be inconsistent this year because of the youthful nature too.

Yes, but you've signed players 2 players! As well as having some kind of experience in Craigen :P And it's only 2 games into a season anyway, all downhill from here ;-)

The spurs team seems very experienced compared! (Going by the team that played v Hull)

 

Gomes - 28 years of age, 4 years at PSV

Cudicini (on 16) - 35 years of age, 9 years at Chelsea

 

Hutton - 24 years of age, 6 years at Rangers.

Bassong - 22 years of age, 30 games last season for Newcastle. Seems a good potential player for the future

Corluka - 23 years of age, over 70 total appearences in the Premier League

Asso-Ekotto - 25 years of age, 3 years at Spurs

 

Huddlestone - 22 years of age, over 70 appearences for Spurs.

Lennon - 22 years of age, 119 appearences for Spurs plus played at the 2006 world cup

Palacios - 25 years of age, over 50 appearences in the Premier League plus a tough tackler

Modric - 23 years of age, 36 appearences for Spurs. Getting used to the style

Bentley (on 85) - 24 years of age, over 100 total appearences, not so good for Spurs with Lennon's form though.

 

Keane - 29 years of age, 213 total appearences for Spurs with 86 goals

Defoe - 26 years of age, 149 appearences for Spurs with 49 goals

Crouch (on 81) - 28 years of age, over something like 150 games for english clubs as well as being massively tall!

Since we all seem to be posting our respective team line-ups... :P Here's Newcastle's from the Palace game

 

Newcastle have a pretty strong first choice eleven, but if we're hit with injuries like normally, then I'm not sure how the young guys will do :???:

 

GK Steve Harper [91] (34 year old, been with Newcastle since... forever :lol:)

RB Danny Simpson [1] (22 years old, loan signing from Man Utd, was on loan at Blackburn last season)

CB Steven Taylor [115, 7] (23 year old, still young but has experience, is England U21 captain)

CB Fabricio Coloccini [38] (27 years old, hard to believe but this guy has 32 caps for Argentina :lol:)

LB Jose Enrique [53] (23 years old, couple of seasons at Newcastle)

RM Ryan Taylor [14, 1] (25 years old, fairly new to the team, signed last year but didn't make it into the first team much)

CM Danny Guthrie [26, 2] (22 years old, signed from Liverpool last season played pretty much all our games last season)

CM Alan Smith [43] (28 years old, no explanation needed)

CM Kevin Nolan [15, 1] (27 years old, no explanation needed)

LM Jonas Gutierrez [34] (26 years old, Argentina international, Barcelona are linked with a move for him :lol:)

ST Shola Ameobi [194, 51] (27 years old, see Steve Harper :P)

 

SUBS

 

GK Tim Krul [2] (21 years old, Holland U21 captain, played his ass off against West Brom in only his 2nd first team appearance)

CB Tamas Kadar [0] (19 years old, Hungarian, spent all of last season out injured with a broken leg)

CDM Nicky Butt [118, 5] (34 years old, no explanation needed)

CM Geremi [44, 2] (30 years old, no explanation needed)

CAM Kazenga Lua-Lua [10] (18 years old, younger brother of Lomana Lua-Lua)

ST Nile Ranger [3] (18 years old, very little first team appearances, England U19 international)

ST Xisco [7, 1] (23 years old, Spain U21 international, we paid too much money for him, scored 1 goal last season)

 

Other players worth mentioning: Joey Barton, who needs no introduction :P Andy Carroll who had a taste of the Premier League last season, but is only 20 years old, first choice striker partner for Ameobi. Ryan Donaldson, Fabio Zamblera, Ben Tozer and Jonny Godsmark - all who haven't played in the first team yet but I'd say they're likely to feature if there are injuries and no new players are signed.

 

;-)
