Diakite

[NYHoop]

anyone know why he wasn't there tonight?

hope hes ok

[qpr]

Same question for Hoilett as well. I expected a 10min run out for Junior

[RblockTourist]

Hoilett wasnt there as he has barely trained with the squad and Diakite was being rested as he played most of the tour in asia

[QPRDave]

I heard he's left the club!!!.........................abducted by aliens!

[QPRWEBBIE]

He is being lined up for an exchange for defoe

Seems close enough, thanks

I couldn't see them sitting with MH et al. though. Even if they weren't fit to play, you'd have thought they would accompany the side?

Thats what Ian Taylor tweeted, so tis the truth or spin!

Apologies if Im being thick here, but can you explain as your post makes about as much sense to me as a 7-letter word to Wayne Rooney.

11th august match will be last pre-season before Premier league. so i think MH will use strongest starting 11 he's got.
But it wouldnt be real starting11 caz maybe a few new member would come after that match.

Means the match against Augsburg will feature our first XI I think.

Got ya now, apologies.

Yea I think you're right, the 11 starting this game will, IMO, be the 11 starting vs Swans. Bar any late signings obviously, but I think Hughes will try and avoid any such late additions if possible.
