Leroy Lita is a major doubt for Reading’s trip to Old Trafford as a result of injury suffered whilst stretching in bed. Draw you own conclusions from that but just don’t take the injury lightly, otherwise Coppell will be after you.

“It is not an injury that should be ridiculed or made light of”, remarked the ever so stern Coppell.

Lita was fighting it out with Kitson and Doyle for a starting spot for Reading at the weekend and this should clear the way for Kitson to get the shirt with Doyle, maybe employed out wide in a 4-5-1. That’s just a wild theory I’ve been entertaining for the last few days, so feel free to come up with your own – I don’t doubt you find your thoughts wandering to Reading’s formation at Old Trafford just like me. Just me then, okay.
