It's only August and Julien is already being sent to Coventry - Match Thread 13:12 - Aug 21 with 75742 viewsFDC

In 20 odd years I don't think I've ever started one of these.

I'm thinking (hoping) we will go with a three man midfield this weekend, with Morgan, Field and Varane. Coventry scored five last weekend! We can't afford to concede too early, and will need to score first to get anything out of it IMO. An early Coventry goal, supporters getting aggy... gulp.

We all want a box-to-box no. 8, but these players are high value and not easy to sign on the cheap. He's young, and a bit slight, but I wonder if we need to start thinking about cultivating Morgan in this role as a long term solution? We know he can get stuck in, he's got bags of energy, and popped up with an absolute thunder-bastard last weekend.

Poku being out actually makes this an easier decision to make, because we can play Chair and Dembele either side of Burrell (or Kone if fit) without agonizing over who gets left out.

Presumably Dunne returns at RB, Esquardinho returns at LB, and Morrison and Mbengue start at CB.

This is embarrassing

Dembele again.

Gobsmacked by this performance. Oh and that's 4.

It's gonna go toxic big time. This is Ainsworth level shocking.

Dembele gives us possession in our half easy as a kid being robbed of candy. Seconds later, it's in our net.

Embarrassing, shameful, inept , gutless - choose your own adjectives.

We are laughing stock and not for purpose in every respect .

I will say it again , still people saying this morning that the club is ‘making progress’ .

You can’t sacrifice matches in the present to get to tomorrow .

There will be no tomorrow!!!!

Just dared to have a peek. Blimey.
Part of me thinks that 8 or 9 might be the wake up call QPR need....but are we even capable of waking up?

Well we’re in the bottom three now, didn’t take long did it? 2 and a half games. (Although Ainsworth managed it by half-time of the first game)
