Yeah, totally agree. I do think we're going to see just how good a signing de la cruz was monday night.
Looks like the Reading home page agrees with you. I t should be interesting.

Well, Cruz has had three solid weeks with the club, he should be somewhat in sync. Very glad Reading signed him.

Yes, the signing is already looking pretty big. Hopefully he can do well in his debut.
So is this the probable lineup?
----------------------Marcus---------------------
de la Cruz--------Sonko-------Ivar---------Shorey
Seol----------Sidwell---------Harper-------Convey
------------Lita-------------------Doyle----------
Stack
Little
Gunnarsson
Bikey*
Long
*-If he's ready
Will Kitson be available off the bench?

Kitson is not expected to be on the bench. I wonder if seol doesn't move up top if we need a switch, and Little or oster, come in for him. Nothing against long, but I think seol is a better option up top as well as out wide.
Course, seol is on his fourth day back from traveling halfway around the world for two games, so he may not be overly fresh.

One advantage I see to playing Seol on the right in this match is the chance to have him and Little both able to rest some, as I don't think either will be able to play the full 90' (maybe I'm underestimating how fit Little will be). I could see Seol playing up top with Lita, and Little on the right, but that would most likely mean both would have to be substituted, which leaves only one for everyone else.

Very open, back and forth match so far. Maybe a little sloppy too
