QPR v Southampton | Match Thread

[Romford Hoop]

I think again the midfield of Madsen and Varane is to soft. We seem to change the team to accommodate Chair, however he is not the player he was. JS needs to toughen the midfield, stick with Kone and Burrel, go 4-3-3 with a harder midfield, play one of the wingers and drop chair.

[Sleeping Giants]

We could pump that ball in to the box from crosses all night and not get on the end of one, I don't know the exact numbers but we must have put over 30 crosses in tonight with nothing to show for it. There's something fundamentally wrong if you cannot threaten from crosses or corners.

Yeah.... I mentioned the Madsen & Varane pairing before KO. FFS there must be some young modern day Robbie Savage in L1...???

Start with Morgan in defensive mid and take up one of those offers for Verane in Spain.

How the #### did we lose that! Lack of ideas in final 3rd

[Shania]

I was told it was him who punched a wall after a disagreement with the medical team 4-6 weeks ago.

That`s excatly the spirit we need now...Burell and/or Kolli up top.

We are disjointed across the whole pitch. Our transition from defence to midfield to attack is ponderous, one-dimensional, predictable and worst of all, easy to play against.

We are shite in the the final 3rd cos opposition simply trundle back, shuffle into two-banks-of-four and repell our poxy lofted balls into a packed area.

I have completely lost all faith in this manager and Nourry's ability to identify managers who understand EFL football. I think this is the best squad we've had for about 4 seasons and it's criminal the manager is making a pig's ear out of the season.

[Harrow QPR]

My view once again is , we have some decent players but the mentality is all wrong and i mean the mentality of the club. You've got our CEO saying we want to be a club that develops players and sell them for a profit. Saying this sends out a message to the players , we do'nt care about results , just want to make a profit. Also sending a whole team of kids out for a cup game tells the players we don't care about winning we just want to give the kids a bit of experience , when in reality , losing to a crap Plymouth side gives them a bad experience. How about the club putting out messages saying we want to take this club back to the Premier league and have some good cup runs and that we only want players who will bust a gut and give 100 percent effort. This club is a complete #### show , this is why our players do'nt give a #### and just knock it around, go 2-0 down then start playing and putting some effort in.
So glad i do'nt go anymore and pay money to watch this club , i admire the people that still go but you must be mad , the standard of football in the championship is so poor compared to the 70's and 80's.

What a load of ########.

Have some faith, and some patience. It's the Championship FFS

Surely you're on a wind up . How many years patience should we have

Agree about the manager , he's a complete wet wipe , we need someone to put a rocket up these players and get the minimum of 100 percent effort , anything less they get dropped .
Oh and please give Varane away in January i can't watch him keep passing straight back to our centre halves every time he gets the ball. The one time he decides to pass forwards in the 75th minute we score .

[72bus]

Was at the game and so much is wrong , regardless of who he picks we just ain't good enough.
Nardi gives me a heart attack every time he messes about with it , our playing out is slow and ponderous....
Long balls we ain't ever going to out jump them with our midgets upfront..
Corners and set pieces were dire , they won every header.
I'll say it now this manager doesn't seem to have a clue .

[eam1882]

Well I've slept on it.
still can't see any positives
nardi is a liability,
Could go on but you get the drift.

Agree we can talk about this that and them but it makes not one iota of a difference. Where do you start to put it right??? For me get some aggressive leadership on the pitch and on the bench.Because we have a decent squad at the moment we need someone to make them play and someone they respect. We have neither and haven’t had for a long time. All good sides have at least one of the above!!

[daveshads]

Agreed DJ, Jimmy is good on his day but not, I think, captain material. If he has any effect on what is going on in play, then it is far from clear. BUT, as you say, we don't have any obvious leaders. So much that is wrong, could start to come together if we did. For instance, all those hopeless crosses last night. It was like driving the Titanic into the iceberg. Where was the onfield brain saying let's try something different? I would give Hayden a try as captain and see how it goes. Can't be any worse!
