Reading FC interim manager Paul Ince heaped praise on Andy Yiadom and Danny Drinkwater after their impressive displays in the Royals’ home win over Stoke City.

Fresh on the back of helping Ghana qualify for the 2022 World Cup, Yiadom has returned in excellent form for his club, and put in a tremendous performance last night which helped Reading over the line to claim three big points against Stoke to take them eight points clear of the relegation zone.

“It’s hard to pick out individual but Yids (Andy Yiadom) was unbelievable,” said Ince.

“He was amazing and you can see why he’s going to the World Cup.

“He was unbelievable from the first minute to the last minute when we needed him to make tackles and get us up the park.

“It was a big, big, big display. he was man of the match by miles.

“But its not about man of the matches, it’s about working collectively together and when you’ve got experience like Drinkwater, Yids, Morro (Michael Morrison), you’ve always got a chance and that’s so important.”

Ince also picked out the performance of Drinkwater who has impressed in his last two matches in the heart of Reading’s midfield.

He continued: “Danny was unbelievable on Saturday against Barnsley, we’re talking about a Premier League winner. He’s a fantastic player and a fantastic character.

“Some of the lads were out on their feet. physically, emotionally and mentally it’s tiring and towards the back end of the second half, they dug in and stuck together and thoroughly deserve the three points.

“Junior came in full of beans having qualified for the World Cup. He had Saturday and Sunday off and he looked sharp.

“It’s about winning points, we knew it was a massive day for us.

“It’s an eight point buffer but there is a long way to go. things can change. we’ve given ourselves a great opportunity and have the momentum.”
