Northampton Town manager Jon Brady made a strategic decision not to include former Reading captain Liam Moore in the match against Reading, despite it being a sentimental option for Moore and many fans. Moore had recently joined Northampton Town and had been performing well, but Brady felt that Moore’s physical condition was too risky to allow him to play against his old club.
Brady mentioned that Moore had been playing regularly and was showing signs of fatigue, possibly entering a “red zone” in terms of his physical readiness. Despite Moore’s desire to play against his former team and the potential emotional aspect of the matchup, Brady prioritized Moore’s well-being and decided to rest him for the match.
This decision was made in consideration of Moore’s recent injury history and the need to manage his playing time carefully to avoid further issues. While it might have been a sentimental and “romantic” choice for Moore to face his former club, Brady chose the sensible option of protecting Moore’s fitness and ensuring his long-term availability for Northampton Town’s matches.
