| Most dramatic fall 07:00 - Dec 18 with 7017 views | hoops_legend |
Which QPR player had the most dramatic fall from grace in your experience. What I mean by that who started absolutely great and ended up as one of the worst and how can we explain it all? Seems to happen to quite a few QPR players
Samba diakete was absolutely set to become a qpr favourite. He was absolutely mental - his Fulham display saw him chop down their opponents and get two yellow cards quickly and we all thought we had a head case. Then he really kicked on and his displays the rest of the season were immense. Loved him. He worked well with Taarabt, cisse etc
Then we signed him permanently I think and he just lost it. Does anyone know what happened and why? Was this mark hughes influence?
Who else have we got? Stuart wardley perhaps

Don't really think I'm accepting Stuart Wardley in this category.
I don't feel like it's a case of "where did it all go wrong?" so much as "how on earth did it go so right? How did a non-League big lump central defender, who never looked good enough in that role, bought in part-exchange for a load of old kit because both parties were skint, turn into a goal machine when played out of position for 6 months?"
I don't suppose he mopes over what might have been, more like he remembers that one glorious time in his life when he was a hero. [Post edited 21 Dec 21:38]

Absolutely with you on this one mate. Wardley played so far above anything he’d ever shown before or since for that one six month spell, it’s completely unfair to describe his career after that as a fall.
However, my mate still dislikes him to this day after he met Wardley at the horse racing and received a particularly awful tip from him for the next race. Still makes me laugh to this day |  |

Rob Green
Absolute king shit for ages and then got the wobbles.
And then went and joined Chelsea as their 15th choice keeper.
I f**king loved Rob Green until then. |
Sorry but Rob Green started absolute pants for us. Reason we had to get julio cesar in | |

Esteban Granero. Thought he looked superb in his early games then went a bit rubbish/lost interest. Think he could have done much more. |
I really like granero but that early losing streak really lost him. Shame. Good shout | |

Eduardo Vargas perhaps? Looked pretty decent at first and then........
Could throw Loic Remy into the mix as well.
One who started shockingly and never improved would be Chris Samba. Even though I believe we recouped the £12m transfer fee when we sold him that has to be right up there in the worst deals we've done as a club |
How does loic remy get a mention in all the qpr players. He got a decent return for us to be fair [Post edited 22 Dec 0:47]

Bit worried that Lucas Anderson should be mentioned in here. He was superb to begin with and now I am unsure what he brings to the team | |

Rowan Vine. Thought he was a smashing player with such intelligent movement / patterns of play pre-injury. The first player I could really see a shift in the calibre of player we were now able to sign. Then it was so sad to see him come back after the injury and look completely unrecognisable, obviously a lot went on and changed in between. To a much lesser extent as still a club legend; Kevin Gallen. Would he have kicked on and played for Liverpool, Man Utd, England had it not been for Fratton Park? Hard to know, but guess he wouldn’t be the legend he is at QPR as doubt he would have been playing 3rd tier football at 26/27. Ended up being part / captain of a team that gave so many of us such happy years supporting the club. |  | | |

Can I nominate the Preston keeper after yesterday’s injury following their team’s red card?I know the ref can’t whether a player is genuinely injured or not,but he was definitely taken in by his antics yesterday,and I’m glad it came back to bite him on the a@se.Good to see our players pour his water away too.
Just a shame that we didn’t score in the added time that his cheating created,but I’ll take the points anyway. |  | | |

Probably too early to say he's had a dramatic fall but Chris Willock should be playing at a higher level but suddenly doesn't seem to care....which made me think of Adel....what a waste of talent.
*Edit* hit the wrong button, was not meant to reply to stowmarketrange. [Post edited 22 Dec 19:20]
