Reading midfielder Stephen Hunt admits he is still hurting following the Royals' recent relegation from the Premier League.
The Royals were sent down to the Championship despite cruising to a 4-0 victory at Derby on the final day of the season.
Now Hunt is hoping his team-mates can quickly adjust to life in the second tier and told the club's official website: "Maybe being in the Championship gives us a chance to get a winning mentality back.
"We just have to get on with it. There's nothing we can do about it now.
"The Championship is a tough league and it won't be easy to bounce back, but we should feel confident that we have the ability to do that.
"Hopefully once we get back for pre-season we'll be headed in the right direction and things will look much better for us."
