Jem Karacan out of Chelsea trip

Reading midfielder Jem Karacan has been ruled out of tomorrow's match at Chelsea.

The former Turkish youth international has failed to recover from a muscular injury in his leg.

Jason Roberts will also miss the trip because of a suspension that he picked up towards the end of last season.

However, French midfielder Jimmy Kebe has been passed fit following a spell on the sidelines with a hamstring complaint.

Stuart Taylor, who joined the Royals yesterday, will also be included in the squad.
