Hard to believe after the Watford game this time last season watching the likes of Gubbins , Duke McKenna and Dozell inhabiting our line up thinking where are we getting 50 points from ? To this … Time to deliver now .

As a Danish R since 1976, I haven’t seen many Danish players during my many years at Loftus Road. Marc Nygaard and Mikkel Beck were among the few until Lucas Andersen recently joined. Therefore, it’s quite strange to suddenly have two Danes in the squad. Almost surreal. I’ve read several comments suggesting we’re becoming Brentford, but no way. A few Danes is the only similarity. Hopefully, we’ll soon catch up with that bus stop and Madsen could be a stepping stone in that direction. It’s funny that we’ve ended up with one of Benham’s former players - as you correctly pointed out Clive - Madsen will hopefully bring some much-needed drive and passing skills into the midfield.
When Nicolas Madsen played for FC Midtjylland, which was partly owned by Benham at the time, he gained experience playing at the highest level in Denmark and in Champions League group matches. He didn’t fall through and did quite well. Midtjylland fans praise him for his time there and tell me that he was popular, physically strong, and considered a great talent. The main reason he didn’t break through at the time was that they had a very strong midfield with Jens Cajuste, who went to Napoli and now Ipswich, Frank Onyeka from Brentford, and Brazilian technician Evander. Madsen was young and inexperienced back then, but very promising, so I believe and hope that we at QPR can now benefit from him being more experienced, yet still young and physically strong. I think he can actually adapt quickly to the Championship and really hope to see him make his debut tomorrow when I’m at the rail seating section at Loftus Road with my kids. When they’re with me, we always win! U Rrrrss!

Good read. I agree strongly with a lot of the commentary. As you noted, for all his qualities, Field is a bit too risk averse at times with his passing - favouring a simple back pass which often invites the press, rather than a more creative option.
No idea what this guy is like but a passer that can get the ball to the new, attacking talents we have, could make us a very dynamic team. Time will tell.

I suggested Jack Rudoni as a summer target knowing that he he was probably out of reach for us and so it turned out. Madsen sounds like he might be a slightly flimsier version of him but could be just as effective. Although Madsen’s curly crop maybe out of reach for Ilias Chair, it wasn’t for Rangers and I look forward to seeing a player in a position we’ve neglected for a long time. Youu Rrrr’s!
I posted the other day on the Hayden thread saying how it's an absolute yes from me but that was under the pretence this guy was a pipedream and the hope Amit and Jamie's friendship would allow us to get Hayden back ok similar friendly terms to last season.
If the club is going to move forward it has to take risks on young players (I think I'm right saying Madsen is the same age as EDB?), developing them and moving them on for a profit.
Whatever happens this season full credit to all of the management team at QPR. They've found a manager who inspires confidence and wants to play in the 'QPR way' and have somehow found a way to back him within the constraints of our budget and long-term security.
I can't believe how optimistic I'm feeling as I head off to sit in the paddocks for 2 hours with the heavens opening above me.... #YouRssss

If the fee is a reportable £2m spread over a reportable 5 year contract then it's only £400k on the books this season. In theory the Armstrong money could have paid for all our signings.
