Cheer Up Holloway

[whooosh]

Queens Park Rangers have lined up former Argentine international Ramon Diaz as a possible replacement for boss Ian Holloway, BBC Sport understands.

Diaz won the Argentine title five times during a spell in charge of River Plate and also played for Inter Milan, Fiorentina, Napoli and Monaco.

Holloway is popular with Rangers fans having steered the club to promotion from Division Two last season.

But the R's have won just one of their opening six games in the Championship.

And a Monaco consortium that recently purchased a stake in the club are reported to be keen to oust him.

Members of the group, who include former Brazil captain Dunga, know Diaz from his spell at Monaco, where he played under Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger.

Holloway's future has been in doubt for some time.

His contract expired in the summer and talks ran into trouble before he was eventually given a one-year rolling deal.

And a number of managers, including ex-QPR star John Gregory, have been linked with the Loftus Road hotseat since Italian Gianni Paladini bought a 22% stake in the club this year.

Holloway has also recently voiced concerns about the size of his squad and insists he needs more players.
