colinmk Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 Shane Long is the fastest footballer I've ever seen. He runs like the T1000 as well. If that is the case we should sign him. If we have a T1000 and a TIOTE24 will be unstoppable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 I've never rated Long when I used to go and watch Reading, but that was before he really broke into the team (Doyle/Kitson was the front two). Seems he's come on recently, but I haven't watched him enough to comment really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 We were "linked" to Long on the last day of the January window. Uninspiring loan or words to that effect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdckelly Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 on long, i haven't seen him much for reading but when he's played for Ireland he's impressed me, especially Tuesdays performance vs Uruguay where he was very very impressive, worth a gamble imho but shouldn't be only striker signed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sugoinufc Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 Didn't Chelsea bid £30m for him in Jan? I think he's over rated personally, 30 mill is silly. 12 would alright....you don´t get much proven striker for less... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 Pleased that our scouting seems more thorough these days. Long gone are the days when Roeder would go easyjetting round Europe looking at players way out of his price range and the only alternative was asking Terry Mac if he'd seen anyone good in the Pontins League on a Thursday night.

For his size he is good in the air and is deceptively strong. Before Christmas he was struggling for form and many Reading fans would have happily let him go. However since then his game has improved BUT sometimes his first touch is poor and what looks likes an easy chance is often missed. Cannot fault his effort or his bravery.
