The Reading FC player described as 'the difference maker' for Paul ... (Berkshire Live)

Former Reading FC manager Brian McDermott was on co-commentary duties for local radio over the weekend for Royals' 2-2 draw with QPR at the Select Car ...

He has grown to be a fabulous player and he definitely plays in the Premier League, absolutely no problem. "I tried to sign him for Reading when he was at Blackpool for £7million - obviously we didn't have £7million at Reading! He's done it in the past. That would be the hope in a horrible second half like it was. Without the ball, his work is fabulous and you get him in the final third, on the ball, he is a really, really good player. Royals are the tenth different club of the midfielder's much-travelled career which has largely been spent in the second tier, alongside fleeting spells in the top flight.

The lads look up to him whether things are going good or bad.
