Thread | QPR v Ride A White Swansea Match Thread

Match 5 😯
Going a bit early due to Xmas and I'm not changing the format as I'm becoming more superstitious the longer this run continues.
Will the Welsh valleys be filled with the joyous choir melodies of Rangers fans celebrating another good result?
Will The Rs refuse to go gentle into that good night?
Does Matri look younger when QPR do well?
Those Ancient Alien Astronaut theorists give a resounding Yes!
Tough game, no Cook, but we are looking difficult to breakdown. Going for a 1-0 win, but be delighted with a draw.
Happy Xmas everyone, and safe journey to those making the trip along the M4. U Rs! |

Yeah, those 11 years in football he did before he turned 26 have certainly helped. Child genius.
"Only one left back, Marti? Nah, we'll be OK, but I got you another right back just in case." |

I'm gonna get crucified for this, but...... I don't see it, though there is a caveat.
To me I think he would be much better as the 10, behind the forward. I know needs must at the moment, but he appears wasted as the lone striker.
I'd like to see him behind Celar, with Chair and Dembele either side.
Now that forward line would have serious creativity, pace, movement and goals. |

Ashby was brought in because Santos is crap, nothing to do with covering left back. |

I don't think the issue with Nourry is the signings, most of us know that they take time to settle etc. I've defended Celar and Madsen on here numerous times.
You can't though go into a season depleted in key positions. That is just fckin stupid.
Bizarrely some on here defend Nourry while at the same time sl*gging off his signings - Madsen & Celar mostly.
It's a shame Nourry has become so divisive within the fan base. Thank God for Marti though. |

You don't sell/release Willock, Armstrong and Dykes and dont sign Hayden with the expectation that your new signings won't be starters.
Maybe Morgan and Morrison, but that just highlights how unbalanced the squad is.
Nourry is getting away with it as MC has sacrificed style over substance. To play the QPR way which he banged on about (or implied) means the squad still needs a massive overhaul again next summer. |

I liked his high five to the kids in the SB Stand and Lower Loft at the end of the game. He seems a little mad.
Football wise, said when we signed him I said he looks like a not as good Patrick Viera, which is meant as a compliment. He has all the attributes to be a really good midfielder. |

Loved Field tipping Woodmans water away. Funniest thing I've seen since the ballboys kept nicking the towels for the Milwall players to dry their hands on for long throws. |

Wouldn't call Saito a breakthrough season. He is on loan, and as soon as Chair is fully fit he'll be dropped.
Dembele has had 2 decent games, so again you can't compare him to, say, Morgan.
Alfie Lloyd, again not a breakthrough yet. Even with zero strikers Kolli was brought back into the team ahead of him.
Varane getting better, and pretty sure most people on here could see, with time, that he would be key.
Nardi, love him. But he is 30, my post was about youngsters.
No left back cover, no back up central midfield, no striker cover.
The major money we spent has gone on a midfielder who won't tackle, was considered weak and too slow by every other club that looked at him and has now lost his place to an 18yo free transfer.
So no, I'm still not going to give Nourry a free pass. |

Running the ball off the pitch due to lack of control is infuriating, especially when chasing a winner. |

MotM today for me. For 18 he looks like the real deal. The big plus this season has been the breakthrough for Morgan, Morrison and Kolli. When did we last have 3 youngsters breaking through at the same time?
All taking their chances which is great news for us going forward. |

I'm not a fan of Saito. Rarely beats his man, too weak, and never seems to deliver a killer ball. Don't think we should sign him.
Chair, one moment of class and a goal. Love him. |

What is bizarre is why sign Madsen, who is slow, weak and appears to have zero energy.
I just hope we can get some money for him in the summer as I can't see him getting into this team. An 18yo has taken his place.
Also Saito, wouldn't sign him on a permanent. Watched him today, and he is too weak for the Championship. The difference Chair made when he came on was huge.
The plus side to all the injuries has been the opportunity for Morgan and Morrison. And they have grabbed it. |

How does this team manage to play so Jekyll and Hyde? Dominant second half performance, great to get minutes into Chair, Frey and JCS.
Morgan MotM for me. His work rate for an 18yo is pretty amazing, but he can also play a bit. His body shape when receiving the ball allows us to move forward.
I think the debate about whether we keep Cook for next season has been settled unfortunately.
Do we have a CB in the development squad that can step up? |

The universe is predicted to end in ten thousand trillion, trillion, trillion, trillion, trillion, trillion, trillion, trillion years.
If an atom represented one year, there are not enough atoms in the entire universe to get near that number.
At the end of that time, nothing will be left, black holes will have evaporated and time will cease to exist as there will be nothing left to measure it against.
A bit like watching us v Preston. |

Went and saw Shed Seven at Brixton Academy last Saturday. Last gig on their 30th anniversary and they smashed it. Chasing Rainbows, I almost cried.
What was yours? |
