Here goes, stuck my head above the parapet.
Scrappy and nervy 2-1 to us. Burrell to continue his good form. |  |

Five changes tonight, half the team, but still the two man midfield, Madsen and an out of form Varane.
I am shrugging my shoulders alongside Julien.
Thank goodness for the tireless work rate of Burrell who creates chances out of nothing.
I can only suggest that we attempt a reset and concentrate on stop conceding goals to begin with. Three man midfield please on Saturday which must include Field, I think he would have prevented the first goal tonight. So say Field and Morgan leaving Madsen to spray the ball around hitting our players with pace in front of him. |  | | |

Loads of one touch possession football sideways and backwards - only one good final ball - which led to the goal.
Varane seems reluctant to pass forward or is incapable of doing so. Madsen though playing better doesn’t do enough still.
Extremely poor first half - poor defending for both goals even allowing for the finish for the second goal.
Playing out from back far too much putting extra pressure on Nardi that he doesn’t need.
Oh to have had Ronnie Edwards today - May not be the complete answer but he would have made a big difference. [Post edited 5 Nov 21:58]

Sorry but that’s bollox on Varanne
I watched him knowing people would roll this trope out.
Counted three blatant backwards passes and two of those were due to no other option, the other one I’d not give him pelters for.
Tonight he was progressive, moved forward and had a good game.
He needs to shoot more, once would be nice! |  |

Anyone else tonight feel more fed up with QPR than they have in years? That's the way I feel. Strange because about 5 weeks ago I was the most excited I'd been in years.
Something about that Derby game. Watching that there was something suddenly not right. At least it knocked my confidence in the team massively.
Maybe I'll feel better in the morning. [Post edited 5 Nov 22:26]

I agree mate. He had a very decent game tonight - but it’s what we need to see a lot more of. |  |

Yes, Stephan is another dud. We need a Nathan Jones type. The last time we had any success was under Warnock.
I'm watching that tonight and I haven't got a clue what our game plan is. Morgan did more in five minutes than the rest of then all match. |

I really thought we had turned a corner. Let's face it, he picked the team most of us asked for.
I'm struggling to understand how we can go from being a very competent, solid looking, attacking side after a few initial howler games and then, after an international break, completely fall apart all over again. That's now something like 2 wins at home in 11? How is it possible to be this much of a Jekyll and Hyde side? It doesn't seem to matter what players we have and what manager/coach we have. It is always the same. Absolutely no 'boring' grind it out consistency.
Stephan, if you look at his history, has a very similar cycle of winning and losing cycles to Marti. I mentioned it when he came in jest. Win 6 or 8 then lose 6-8 and repeat. I commented that he was a bit of a like for like in his winning and losing run history.
I hope we somehow get something out of Saturday because what looked like being a relatively anxiety free mid table season now looks a lot more difficult if they just keep losing.
And just to repeat, he pretty much picked the starting 11 we all wanted! |

We’ll agree to disagree on Varane - In my opinion he doesn’t try to run forward enough with the ball, he’s not strong enough on it and you can count on one hand the number of killer balls he plays.
I certainly didn’t think he had a good game because not one of them did.
He has not progressed this season but it’s football - we all have different views on what is a good performance and I still need to be convinced that he is the answer. |  |

Unsurprising result.
Big issue for me is the ‘inverted’ wingers. Thought we looked a lot more dangerous when Morgan came on. Would have brought on Kone instead of Dembele and would have made the changes sooner as we were chasing the game.
I thought Chair and Burrell set the standard for pace and tempo, but we looked very disjointed as a team.
I think we’ve got the players just need to make a few small tweaks to the system and we should be fine. [Post edited 5 Nov 23:04]

I hope you're right. My depression is that we can't just grind out boring points when we need them, again. Every season kind of feels like Goundhog Day. | |

I think it’s a cumulative thing. The football was considerably worse this time last year and I can’t recall how many games we won eat home last year but it wasn’t many.
It seems worse now because this squad is, or should be, way better than last years. It really is the hope that kills you.
As I said earlier in this thread it’s QPR fatigue syndrome.
Having said that, I still back the manager and I think talk of us being relegated is way over the top. [Post edited 5 Nov 22:38]

Well that was frustrating! We can’t win games carrying 3 or 4 5/10 or worse players every game. Really poor from Varane again, both goals he has failed to bust a gut to cover for his defence.
If someone can tell me where Smyth was supposed to be playing I would love to know. First half 5 yards off everything far too deep at times or he would then push into an inside right position.
Dunne is half the player he was last season
Morrison is really struggling and Nardi is a wreck and it’s impacting the defence who are having to come deeper.
Stephan has now learnt the 3 midgets behind the striker won’t work especially if none of them will get into the box.
I don’t like Chair at 10 never have he is far more effective on the left.
I don’t know who this set piece coach is but they need firing both offensive and defensive are terrible, we are easily blocked and it does not matter who the taker is.
I don’t think the number of changes are helping either.
As it’s November it when Sam Field usually finally gets going and I think he has to come in and provide some protection.
RND, Burrell and Dembele’s cameo the main positives today. If that’s what we get from dropping Dembele from the squad then I think a few others would benefit from this starting with Varane [Post edited 5 Nov 22:39]

It's the conceding of goals that we must stop first and foremost, of course that's plainly bloody obvious but It's vital too.
Just who In the name of fck is training/working with our defenders.
I'd kill for a couple of 0-0 bore draws. |  |

We looked better when Morgan came on partly because Southampton were a petrified shambles and retreated to their own penalty area . Morgan had all the time in the world.
He looked comfortable and like he can make a 10 yard pass comfortably enough which I agree is an improvement on some . But I think most of us would look relatively comfortable with the opposition in a camped in their own box .
Not sure what role Smyth had tonight. Seemed to me it was solely to help Jimmy Dunne .
How many times did he attack Manning tonight ? Can’t remember one go at him.
And as for Jimmy , I know no one will mention it but ask yourself why that transfer to Sheff Utd fell through ?
Seems obvious watching him play that he is simply not right .
He is so immobile it’s embarrassing.
What I don’t understand is we decided to try and play out from the back again .
Why?
Is it because Kone wasn’t playing ?
Well that’s crazy because for the last 4 or 5 games we’ve gone long for Burrell to challenge I serial duals and Kone in no man’s land.
Nothing changed except Chair for Kone and the ball would go either one of their heads anyway .
I don’t understand the game plan at all and I don’t think the players do either .
Not sure where we go from here. That’s not far from a strongest side.

Varanne - managed to get back in to cover for the first (you’ll see on replay here was last man in box apart from Nardi so did “bust a gut”) and that goal was all on Mbenge the Brain. For the second goal just have a look at your man Dumbele. He is jogging behind the Saints player who has the ball so has to be slower; gets 10 yards from the box and just gives up then blames Morrison (who I did think could’ve done more)
Smyth done quite well tonight with some great turns and one terrific track back and recovery tackle.
To answer your question though — right midfield but clearly been told to tuck in for Dunne to make overlaps; you know, the ones he HASNT made all season.
Dunne - see above. I guess painkilling injections in your hip might hamper you but fair play for tge attitude
Morrison was poor tonight and looked injured at tge end.
Nardi is shot to shit - two balls into the six yard again tonight and he stayed home. My word.
Chair at 10 is, in my opinion, his best position but agree that drift to the left and then cutting in is his where he does fantastic work. He really could do with a LB with more end product outside him and also tonight I thought Saito was far too quiet.
Stephan has worried me from the start.
We’re well past that “10 games to make a judgement” period and he’s not for me. Funnily enough, if we stay up he’d probably be far better next season as he’d of learnt a lot. He looks clueless and weak and has done since Plymouth away.
Finally, if you’re taking Dumbele as a plus from this evening then I’ll go halves on when you buy the next batch as it sounds good gear!!!! | |
