Marti

[W12Ranger]

It’s not that Marti is so good, it’s too early to judge, we’re only half a dozen games in….what his tenure so far has a highlighted to me (and hopefully the rest of you) is how bad the decision to appoint Gareth (the Rangers legend) Ainsworth was in the first place. In 44 years of following this great club have I never felt so embarrassed to tell people I was QPR fan because of that f***ing clown.

As a QPR fan there are minimum expectations we have from the investment in this club we’ve made

- we have a flair player wearing the number 10 shirt
- we have skilful, nippy wingers
- we play possession football.
- we show up and put a shift in every week.

I’m a realist, every club has their ups and downs and you don’t always get what you want, but there has to be a philosophy which forms the very foundation of a football club.

Maybe I’m getting on a bit now and maybe I’m a little bit to0 sentimental about yesterday year…but I truly believe there is such a thing as the Rangers way. When we play football we are suppose to play with swagger and are Cavalier in attack.

In Chair and Willock we have two of the best flair players in the division and in the past six games they look completely different footballers working with a proper coach. Why on gods green earth did the club employ a coach whose philosophy was to give the ball away when you have players like that?

With that being and putting my anger aside around Gareth Ainsworth….Marti Cifuentes has reinvigorated my passion and belief in QPR, we have literally done a U Turn on the football pitch.

Will we stay up? Yes I think so, I expect us to finish mid table as it stands, Dykes, Kakay, Dozzell they all need to be shown the door and I’m confident they will be.

Back to the original point…I agree I think the coach is a breath of fresh air and though early days on the surface of things appears to be the right fit for the club.

It's our pace we win the ball back that been a huge change even under snake we never pressed as fast and in such numbers

Our movement and running of the ball far better.

Very true and a big positive here is that we're winning, performing well but alot of improvement to be made in these areas an more (still didnt see one good dead ball yesterday), and Marti is isn't shy to identify where we need work in each post match.

So far so good, not done much wrong at all, and in a very short space of time. I don't think this is new manager bounce, it's a genuine shift. More than a shift really as the fundamentals were there already, snakey had us playing in a similar way. Marti has identified that very quickly and brought the players up to speed with his philosophy, or what he thinks will work with this squad, and it's working. Unfortunate that the last 2 managers couldn't see or do this and a shame we couldn't have had Marti in sooner.

I just hope that 1. if we start losing he's given time and 2. He stays if we keep on winning!

Totally agree.

So far its just incredible !
