That was a good and necessary win. I was one of those who doubted the wisdom of starting with Defoe, but he silenced those doubts by playing really well and his second goal was a collector's item for him. Reading were very poor, but we can only take on what is in front of us. It's a shame that a clean sheet seems beyond us at the moment, but 20 attempts on goal and getting three bodes well for the future. I think the approach today was far more positive than the first three very tentative matches, and playing Dembele or Hudd next to Sandro makes a difference in that respect. Good win.
