I was thinking of putting a bob or two on Mehmeti scoring, not just the new manager thing but I think Nige was beginning to look to him for a bigger role in the coming months. Get your money on Cam Pring, got a feeling! 3 Quote Link to comment

Good shout. I can't be the only one who's backed Mehmeti, he's joint favourite with Weimann, not the money maker I had in mind Quote Link to comment

One Team Posted November 10, 2023 Report Share Posted November 10, 2023 Matty James interview pre match: City interviewer says to him, “we’re well placed in the table”! I bet he’d of loved to come back with a proper response to that! 2 Quote Link to comment

I’m not going to judge LM’s results tomorrow, given how short a time he’s been in charge, but I’m looking forward to the match tomorrow and will be interesting if there’s anything to detect yet, in the play, which is new or not. Come on Boys! 1 Quote Link to comment

FNQ Posted November 10, 2023 Report Share Posted November 10, 2023 Well Oxford beat QPR 5-0 in a pre season friendly, and we beat Oxford 5-1.. 1-0 to us written all over it.. Quote Link to comment

The Wild Bunch Posted November 10, 2023 Report Share Posted November 10, 2023 Looking forward to this one. Sad to see Nigel go but start of a new era tomorrow. Let’s get behind the boys and bring home the 3 points! 1 Quote Link to comment

From the (very) few minutes I've seen him there, he looked good. Not sure how we get him there without a tweak, tomorrow will tell. 2 Quote Link to comment

Nuno Gomes Posted November 10, 2023 Report Share Posted November 10, 2023 Got a feeling we may get turned over. Looking at various media coverage it seems Manning is already trying to instil a more possession based approach. I am concerned the players have had little time to adapt and may get caught up and found out playing two systems. Quote Link to comment

The new QPR boss has a similar philosophy to Manning and wants to dominate possession so it will be interesting to see who comes out on top. City have the advantage of a better squad and QPR struggle to score so hopefully we'll get the points. If we win we'll have won more games at Loftus Road than Rangers this year!

TBF Pearson had started bringing that in , made more difficult not being able to bring 4/5/6 players in ready for the first team and also having to integrate youngsters. I see manning's role to continue what Pearson has started, tweak a few things while moving them forward. I don't see it as massive change. There will be differences in how he wants us playing, but it's not like trying to go from 80's Wimbledon to Man City over night. If we do get noticeable changes, more likely to see them after the International break when he has some real time with the squad. Quote Link to comment
Garland-sweden Posted November 11, 2023 Report Share Posted November 11, 2023 Interesting as usual when its gameday. New manager, same players. Defence is key as always, think Mehmeti will start. Think and hope we got an unpolihsed diamant there, hope he scores offcause. Despite the idioetic sack of Nigel: COYR 2-0 City 1 Quote Link to comment

wendyredredrobin Posted November 11, 2023 Report Share Posted November 11, 2023 Wondering whether we will see anything different today under Liam Manning bearing in mind that he has only spent two or three days with the players. He may have had time to introduce a few new ideas like kick the ball towards their goal rather than your own and pass the ball to one of your own players rather than theirs, though that may be a bit much to ask in just a few days. Brian Clough used to say that "Football is a simple game" and he didn't do too badly with Derby and Forest, did he (Leeds fans views may differ, of course). Just imagine Cloughie managing us to the top of the Prem and a Champions League victory bearing in mind that we are no different to what he took on at his two success stories. Quote Link to comment

David Brent Posted November 11, 2023 Report Share Posted November 11, 2023 I just hope that those who were so desperate to see Mr Pearson go can simply enjoy the positive result if we get one. Here’s to 3 points and a good start for our new head coach. Good luck Liam. 1 Quote Link to comment

bcfc01 Posted November 11, 2023 Report Share Posted November 11, 2023 Some very simple stats; QPR last 6 home games PPG .16 and GPG .66 City last 6 away games PPG 1.16 and GPG 1 Could go either way, but I'm thinking a 1-0 win or 0-0 draw. 2 minutes ago, Banjo Red said: Don't know how true this is??? TBF, anyone could have predicted that line up. Well known that LM likes Mehmeti and Bell has been a bit out of form lately. Quote Link to comment
