PEARCEY Contrary to what some think this is a good thread pointing out where the team need to improve.
I still think we can win this league. Why not? Look what we did to Wolves.
However we need to start playing more football through midfield. We looked disjointed yesterday and whatever his faults Harps does link up defence to midfield and midfield to attack. He should have started ahead of Gunnar yesterday. Gunnar's role should be from the bench as in season 2005/2006 when he would come on in the second half to shore things up.
We also need Matejosky in the side to give the team the quality passing which was woefully absent yesterday. Keep Karacan in the squad but again from the bench when perhaps he can be brought on in the last 20 to energise the team.
A Harper/Matejovsky central midfield partnership is by no means perfect as we will then lack a ball winner which away from home when teams wil attack us will be a problem. I would therefore bring in Cisse ahead of Kebe to provide a more defensive midfield to combat the opposition. I would play Kebe from the start in home matches when we need to be more attack minded.
I repeat though that automatic promotion remains a strong possibility. We have a squad with enough quality to achieve that.

Silver Fox Dreadful game, but we'll live. My inly point would be that Copps should have noticed a lot earlier (maybe after about 10 minutes) that Boris should have been replaced with Harps. I may have more to add after Goals on Suday show the highlights.

S09Royal Just a quick question,
WHY is every reporter, QPR fan and sports journalist, saying that QPR have ended our 100% home record?
Are they blind? QPR didn't win, neither did we, they might be the first team this season to take points off of us at home, but we're still unbeaten at home (for how long i don't know) but seriously. Our 100% home record is still intact even if we didnt win. Ga

Terminal Boardom 1. QPR defended well - however, they always kept 4 back and their full backs did not push forward. Very disciplined performance from them.
2. They passed the ball nicely but as has been said elsewhere - no cutting edge.
3. Has Coppell heard of Plan B? Plan A just did not work and there was no invention or creativeness out there. Once that option failed to work what else was there? Too one dimensional.
4. If we had played like that thorughout last season we would have been challenging Derby for bottom spot.
