Kebe: Points more important than goals
Royals winger Jimmy Kebe is desperate to score his first goal for the Club - but insists that the team's results are more important than personal glory.
Kebe has started every game in the Championship this season, putting in some cracking performances, but he is yet to find the net in a hooped shirt.
Speaking to the Reading Evening Post, the 24-year-old said, "Obviously I'm starting to ask myself a few questions because scoring is important for my position. It would be important for me to score but, as people say, when the first goal comes, others follow.
"So I'm waiting for my first goal. But what is more important is that we are winning matches, the team is more important than me."

Jimmy has become a key player in the team despite being on the fringes last season, and said, "Last year was not so good because we were trying to stay up and we did not succeed, but this year I think we will do very well. The important thing is that we go back up.
"In some ways the fact that we are not in the Premiership is giving me time to get my game to standard. I'm not saying that I'm happy we are not in the Premiership, but for me in some way gives me more time to prove myself and gain the managers' trust before we go up again."
Jimmy is delighted to be plying his trade with the Royals after a tough road to Berkshire. "I became a professional player when I was 18. I did not do any proper football training. I just played and fought, using my own strengths.
"When I heard that Reading was interested in me, I was very happy, because it was a dream to play in England.
"Some people get up at five in the morning to go to work in a factory. I get up every morning to play football, so I can't complain really.
"For me it's huge to be playing here in England. I was at Boulogne before and I always said I had this dream of playing in England."
