its pretty tedious and depressing watching Celar play, to be honest. I think you may have forgotten what it is like to watch a competent striker play, to be honest. He has looked dire, except for that shot, which was sharp but wide. He was late to a really decisive ball in to the back post in the first 10 minutes, he missed from 3 yards out a few minutes later, nothing about his performance until that shot suggested he could possibly score |

I wouldn't get too carried away. We have been passing around well but our two best chances came from defenders and one was a header (Cook) straight at the goalie and the other was a glancing header (Dunne) well past the far post. Smyth and Chair are my two favorite players most weeks but Smyth looks so weak and Chair looks so ponderous. Celar is a complete non-factor. Some of the new boys have been linking up well; especially Varane, Ashby, and Morgan. That's definitely a good sign. But we continue to have no point to our spear, so while the spear's shaft is strong, it aint killing any woolly mammoths any time soon!! |

QPR+ is really bad value this season. The price has gone up time and time again so that it is now more expensive than any of the premium streaming services in spite of the fact that it is just one game a week, sometimes two. And then, of the 11 league games played so far this year, 5 games have been blocked (and I've had to watch them on one of the streaming services that I also pay for). That is close to half the games. Oh, and the service didn't work for one game early in the season. And it doesn't help that the games themselves have been absolute crap. I cannot see myself paying for the service again next year; it just isn't worth it. |

What an absolutely hopeless display. Celar is rubbish. Why is he playing. Has he even had a shot yet this season, let alone a fckin goal? 10 appearances, no goals. That isn't a great record. Andersen is dire. His best move is the slow back pass. What is the point? No leadership. No creativity. No basics. Just back passes and shots over the bar. FUUUUUUUUCCCCCCKKKKK!!!!!! |

Honestly, I have no idea what Madsen's role is. Someone said he is a number 10. He certainly doesn't play like a number 10. Also, Anderson has taken a major step back since last year. The two of them should be the ones receiving the ball in midfield and creating something that the wide players or strikers (Dembele, Saito, Smyth, Celar, and Frey) can play off. There is noone playing that role which is why whenever we have the ball it always seems to be going backwards or side to side For today's goal, Debele picked up the ball deep in our half, ran with it and slotted the ball into Frey -- effectively he way a midfielder and attacker at the same time. That is not sustainable. Maybe when Chair comes back he will complement Anderson in a way that makes them both better and serve that critical role. |

Anderson. He has been terrible this season. He really isn't contributing. When he gets the ball he is slow and either coughs it up or gets caught in possession. I don't know what happened in the off season but he has seriously gone off the boil. Frey has been great up front and Dembele has been the best of the bunch from the new lads. |

Well the OP predicted it perfectly. I'd say connell to start the match threads for the rest of the season then! We smashed it in the penalties. Four great penalties from the Rs. Well done lads. We definitely looked second best during the 90 minutes though. Too many stretches when we couldn't put together anything in the oppositions half. There is plenty of talent on display but they need an offseason to gel. Doing that during the season is always risky. On to tomorrow's cup draw. URRRRRRRRRRRRsss!!! |

It’s good business for us because he was awful and we got some money for him. I would’ve happily taken two bags of crisps and a packets of polos for him. A striker who doesn’t score is just taking up space |
