I think there are some parallels to Marti and us here. We began the season playing how Marti would like his teams to play rather than how we needed to play to stay up (last season). For a number of reasons (injuries/luck/poor performances) it back-fired and we had to revert once again play for survival.
Now we've built a platform for him to try again and he will, with an almost full squad available. Going to be interesting to see how it all pans out from here on in. |

we've somehow survived defence vs attacks scenarios this season mainly due to Cook's organisational skills, reading of the game and last ditch tackles. For example Bristol City away.
unfortunately we won't survive long like this without him playing, example Swansea away. |

special mention to our fans for the moment during our stoke at home game where we’re bottom of the league, losing 1-0 and most of the ground break into the ‘marti cifuentes ….’ song as a warning to the board to not do anything hasty. |

some dire performances there - saito and smyth were bad but Andersen really needs to come off at half time - he’s running around like a (slow) banshee but the moment he gets the ball he immediately gives it to the nearest city player |

Steve Cook has been nothing short of immense this season. If there's a better on-pitch leader in the championship then i’d like to see him. We have a young squad now and his constant organisation, encouragement and cover for the rest makes the difference.
Highest paid player at the club and worth every single penny. |

this pattern of letting 1st team players leave for normally sweet fa who then go on the warm the bench for struggling/lower league teams, if they get a club at all just underlines how bad our recruitment has been in recent years.
Kakay for example started about 70 times for us mainly through necessity and he can’t get a club at 27.
maybe Ainsworth wasn’t as bad as he appeared. [Post edited 5 Oct 2024 11:00]

How long do we have to put up with this kind of irreverent LF related response?
He was DoF on apparently eye-watering wages for 8 years. He hasn't even been replaced and we now feel like a better run club in footballing terms.
I'm sure LF did his best but unfortunately he wasn't up to the job and thankfully he's moved on. If you think differently then you're not paying attention. |

agreed - we ended that horrible run of shipping goals from corners last season the moment he stepped into right back |

if the price is right then sell him. but it needs to be a very decent price because since he’s put the injury woes behind him he looks like a rolls royce centre back at this level.
we were one pulled hamstring in 2024 to either him or Cook away from relegation this season |

being offered another season probably hinged on what money he was prepared to accept. I’d like to think that he’s keen to stay in London for family reasons and willing to accept a relatively modest 1 season deal. That together with playing a key role with coaching the young keepers then it probably makes sense.
in marti we trust |

his first couple of months should be ignored because he came in with no pre-conceived ideas, with a squad low on confidence needing to learn to play to his methods.
He also gave all players a clean slate. It took him a little while to figure out that Dozzell, Kakay and Kelman should be nowhere near the first team or the bench for that matter. Also what we were missing and what our best team looked like.
Since beginning of Feb we've won 8, drew 6 and lost 4 which is a shade below a 50% win rate. That's what I'll judge him on. [Post edited 29 Apr 2024 15:08]

he was half of the Chris and Les manager/DOF dream team once Redknapp was sacked in Feb 2015 when we were still in the premier league.
hard to believe that they were both still employed by QPR nearly 9 years on from that [Post edited 24 Apr 2024 18:08]

i’d probably go JCS edging out Cook.
it has to go to a defensive player - not enough goals being scored and assisted to warrant an offensive player being in the frame |

QPR are 100-1 with bet365 this morning to be relegated. With just 2/3 games to go that’s good enough for me. [Post edited 21 Apr 2024 8:39]
