We were so poor in the 1st half and i know they are professionals but we start the game with no right or left back a centre back in midfield Saito playing as a 10 and in my opinion Smyth on the wrong wing .We were much better balanced in the 2nd half and played a lot better.
With 80 to 1 being touted for our relegation this season, seems generous, anyone bet on us to lose or for a negative outcome, and our failure has put a few pennies in your account.....
What does the performance department do at QPR because it seems on a regular basis we are getting soft tissue injuries and running in treacle from 60 minutes?
Not another thread questioning his ability - that debate has been flogged to death.
I think Richard needs to be given a game off. There's no way he can play at the level that is needed when he has played every game, often with very little reward to boost his morale.
We need to get the below par and jaded players out of the equation. I know it leaves us short of experience but we need players who are firing right now.
Last night was a debacle especially the first half and there were a number off issues I saw throughout the game
The lack of creativity in the midfield since madsen went down. The lack of fitness . We looked like we were running in treacle Lack of shooting why don't we shoot when we have a chance instead of trying to pass it into the net The defensive fragility and the lack of tracking back by theikes of Vale Serious lack of depth - Kone has been off it at points in the last few months but we have no one we can change him to as our strikers are injured
Not a massive poster on here but spend a lot of time reading other people's opinions and I totally get and understand the frustration along with the negative comments posted over the last few weeks. No doubt we have been god awful, no shape, unable to defend, unable to pass a ball to our own players from 6 yards, never look like scoring the list goes on and on . . . .
If we go back a while I am not saying all but the majority of us thought we had improved our squad significantly with the addition of Kone, Hayden, Poku and RND. That along with Chair being fit, Smyth, Vale, Saito (mixed opinions), Mbengue and finally Edwards. Not to forget Burrell who was a total surprise and has been excellent. With talk of JCS being fit and Madsen suddenly becoming a very good player hopes for the season was high.
Our biggest issue has been keeping our best players on the bloody pitch!!!! We saw last night with the introduction of a couple of players bought on how we improved. It is quite right to dig out underperforming players, as supporters we have every right to do so but as bad as Walsh is as a goalkeeper the way he has been treated along with the other two is deplorable. Kone is still very much learning his trade, has been pushed to his limit, without Chair to help hold the ball up and Burrell to support him his form has suffered.
So while I am as frustrated as everyone else my point is the unavailability of key players for long periods of this season is, in my view the key to our problems. Again on balance, I also think it is a joke to have Williams anywhere near our players.
My clumsy fingers had pressed to remove the thread from my feed.
Was questioning the meaning of life last night and was wondering when the whole site was going to be removed, so that the mental state of our fans could be protected.
But no, was Numpty pressing the wrong button !!!!!!!!!!!
They run around and shoot and only have a keeper to beat.
They smile and joke when they score as if they have done something really well!
BUT this is a false reality and they are never going to be in this situation!
Place a couple of free kick defensive dummies in FRONT of the keeper and dress them each week in the away strip of the team they are palying!
THEN carry out shooting practice but with defenders in the way!
This is a more realistic practice, less patting each other or self on the back and the defenders they suddenly find in their way will not come as so much of a shock!!
Surely someone somewhere can suggest this please !
Can't score Can't shoot Can't hit the target Can't pass Can't defend Can't keep a clean sheet Can't avoid giving away neeless fouls Can't keep possession Can't control the ball Can't press Can't construct any ideas or do something different Can't stay fit Can't be bothered
All I get for my season ticket is a load of Can'ts !
I get to this point every year, time to rant away at everything and 12 months time nothing will have changed. I try and be positive, I try so hard to look for the good as it's so easy to focus on the bad, I have done all I can to stay positive on Nourry and think maybe I'm wrong give it time but I always end up here, some years it's a 6-1 at Blackpool this years its a 1-0 at Birmingham, tired, angry and ranting away on a message board likely to feature some mad spelling mistakes.
It's a mess, I'm just sick of it.
10 years of the same bloody season again and again. Good for a few months with a load of crap in between, then needing a few nervy results to avoid going down. It happened under Holloway, McClaren, the first year under Warbs, the Beale/Ainsworth year, Marti last year and again. That's not a coincidence.
The manager will get the sack again either next week if we lose the next two, or in the summer, and it will be the same again.
Heads should be rolling. Hoos, Nourry, Williams, head of methodology, the performance therapist all absolute cobblers. Be gone with them.Get a proper CEO in who knows what he's doing. Get a proper Director of football in who knows what he's doing, get people with experience and ability into positions no more bullshitters. We need good smart people running this place with a bit of bloody ambition to see us win football matches rather than the sole aim being to sell someone.
Good luck with selling Varane by the way, he runs like he's filled his nappy up and seems allergic to a foward pass. Hopefully someone is mad enough to read the data and think he doesn't give the ball away, his stats are great.
Another injury tonight, We'll call it contact to pretend we have no issue with muscle injuries. We were so off the pace again today, looked so much slower than Birmingham.
All that said no excuses for the players either that first half was a disgrace. We got nowhere near the opposition; they just stood and said off you go, we were fur coat no knickers tonight. Who wants some? Boys, help yourself. When we ran around a bit in the second half, it turned out Birmingham were nervy and crap but again our final ball, our finishing, our set pieces all absolutley shit.
As bad as that 6-1 v Blackpool a few years ago, the scoreline does not reflect that first half performance.
We'll probably scrape a win somewhere and stay up but we've spent fortunes on this squad and look like we're going to finish lower with fewer points than not only last season but the one before.
Nowhere near good enough since we beat Leicester in December.
He's been properly QPR'd hasn't he. The side that finished this game probably should start the next. At least it showed some intent. Looks like Mbengue and Cook will be missing now. It doesn't get any easier.
