They may and may be not the next Wigan but i doubt they can
perform well enough to stay in the premiership because they did not
sign any player with EPL experience.
Take Wigan as an example. When they were promoted 2 seasons ago,
they bought Jason Roberts as well as Henri Camara. Both are
experience frontman and boast fine scoring records.
Lets take a look at Reading's frontmen: Leroy Lita & Kevin
Doyle.
Lita is typical strong and fast forward. Does he has any EPL
experience? No. And by the way, he was playing in English League
One, i.e. 2 divisions down from EPL, 2 seasons ago!
Doyle is a young striker who has just been promoted to the 1st team
and to ask him to perform in the EPL is somewhat asking too much of
him although he does have a good scoring record, 18 goals in 41
games.
Reading will have no problem staying up if Lita can perform a
"Darren Bent" and Doyle brings his impressive goal scoring
form.
Cheers.
