... when we have had a good look at other teams and can judge where we are in comparison. And the answer is are there 3 teams worse than us in the league? Hull are probably a top 10 maybe top 6 side and how many of our team would of even made their bench. Maybe a couple no more. To me in this division when you buy a player you are looking apart from football skills for speed , attitude and strength. Santos, Madson , Celar , Anderson [ especially he is dreadful] why did we buy them? I just dont understand our transfer policy. Who is in charge of it and why do they buy players who clearly are not suited to the intensity of the Championship. Celar people say is not suited to our system so why buy him. He looks completely useless to me. Unless something really is going on with Kohli why not give him a go , he cant be less effective than totally ineffective.. Anderson is a liability. Most games he makes a dreadful error and misses a sitter. Last night was a prime example. And compare Millar with Smyth or maybe don't. And Santos with any of Hull's back four . And the list goes on. Marti says keep believing and that belief can go no further than i hope we can stay up. It is so frustrating that every year we buy so many very poor players . Why is someone not answerable? |  | | |  |

Compare Millar with Dembele as well who has fallen off a cliff since the first 2 games |  | | |

Nice to see you've already decided all our new signings are 'very poor'.
Some people. |  |

Interesting. Do you think Santos, Madson, Celar, Anderson are championship standard? How long should one give them? | | | |

We know what Andersen can do, he showed that last season, not in great form currently but that will pass.
As for the others I'm not saying they're world beaters, they are new to the club and the English football and need time to bed in, they need at least six months before you can start to write them off (if that makes you feel better). | |

I am not blaming the players i am blaming those who buy them. If Celar doesn't suit the system why buy him? If you need a box to box midfielder why buy Varane [ always passes backwards] or Madson. For seasons now we seldom seem to buy well. 6 months by the way takes us to March which is a little late dont you think!! And Anderson i am afraid for me i said on game 1 he was making too many errors and so far that seems to be right. Last night his lack of control let in their 2nd and his header early on was straight down to the keepers gut, the only place it could be saved and then he had an open goal 10 yards out which he fluffed.
I am not righting off Saito or Dembele or Nardi i just wonder why we signed such as Santos who was clearly taken apart by Millar who is a good player but hardly brilliant. | | | |

Santos and Celar are improving with each game I think. Of course Celar needs a goal but that will come. With a fully fit XI, Santos probably doesn't start though.
Madsen does feel like a bit of a luxury signing and he's clearly not an 8, but let's see what happens.
If we had 10 games left then sure I'd be worried. We have 38 games left, let's trust the manager and players to work it out. | |

I wouldn’t describe any of our signings as a ‘luxury’. Maybe ‘a waste of money’ or a ‘typical QPR punt’, but definitely not ‘luxury’. |  | | |

Now he has a contract, he is phoning it in like so many before him. | | | |

Haha!
I don't think he's a dud but I'm not sure currently where he fits in our team. | |

Utter nonsense.
He would have known the terms of the deal in the summer. The CEO decided it was a good time to give the fans a boost by announcing the details that’s all.
Whether it worked or the idea of drip feeding us titbits is wonderful or insulting is another debate. But all concerned knew what the deal was in the summer . [Post edited 2 Oct 17:17]

To be fair he hasn't signed yet, the announcement was he will sign next summer which we already knew | | | |

Agree, definitely not a dud, but VERY frustrating. He needs to be a little more versatile. Doesn’t need to turn into Charles Bronson but could get a bit more stuck in! It’s his application not ability that’s the issue. It should go without saying, but I’ll say it anyway, I want him to succeed. [Post edited 2 Oct 19:11]
