Queens Park Rangers at home match thread


Recommended Posts

Our players work better off instinct and having less time on the ball - when we have time on the ball a lot of the players just haven't got the nous or creativity to break teams down.

Always been a problem for us when we come up against sides who sit in. QPR haven't done much and didn't need to do much to get their goal - same old story.

Amount of times the ball has gone to Cornick, Knight and Williams and the pace of our attack slows right down. This isn't the right type of game for them, they don't make the right decisions when they have time on the ball, this was similar with Weimann too. 

We're going to have to take some risks with runners from midfield and full back now if we're going to break these down. 

No more passive play, make the right changes, get out there and put these under some serious pressure.

We’re a counter attacking team. The second half is going to be painful

The more so as QPR now have no real incentive to go forward.

Reminds of Brum at home when we started to hit long balls in desperation and got caught on the break again.

Given the 70s reminiscences on here it's probably Watneys Ref Barrel?

If so I doubt you'd want a pint of it!

Same old problem.  No striker.

Why if fans can see it did we do nothing to change that in transfer window

I don't see the point in us discussing the striker being an issue when none of the strikers really get chances and when they do they convert at a decent rate, the issue is we don't create chances for them. We could have Haaland up front but if we can't supply him in a decent position even he's not going to score. We could spend a fortune on a striker and these kinds of games would continue because the issue is not finishing opportunities or even players making the space to get opportunities, it's that we can't supply them the ball in those situations because we can't break down a team who sit back in numbers.

We might have.. but sat on bench in Twine and ‘Dire’. As you say same old when team get behind the ball let us play in front off them. The Saints came here to win and allowed us to ‘play’

Agreed, we do have some creativity but we can't rely on a few players to create chances, the team as a whole need to be better in that department.
