Aside from those of you who will undoubtedly reply, he's no good 
is there any reason we are not looking to have Saito back??
I thought he posed a threat
Separately is it me or does it already seem that Dembele is going to be in sick bay for a lot of the season?

More goals than the other team
More shots on target than off target
No foul throws
Playing like it means something before we go 2-0 down
Decent refs

I never felt he was any good with crosses and in the end, his legs gave way!
That said, Thank you Lucas you served us well on occasion and that is good enough for me! [Post edited 23 Jun 19:02]

No need to be peed off.
You are infected and there is no real cure.
It is the same infection that causes you to live with someone for life or why you have a furry thing that you have to take for walks or a fluffy thing that takes itself for walks.
The symptoms are mild and they will come and go
It will be a roller coaster ride and some days you will feel great and others, less so.
As hard as you try, your ears will always pick up the football score referring to QPR and if they have won, as much as you tell yourself "it doesn't matter!" you will feel good and if they have lost, the opposite.
So, it is not your fault and you cannot change and look at another team to save your emotions
Some are infected others are immune.
It is called love and despite what you say, your ability to love, care deeply and express emotion is THE most important thing about living on this planet! [Post edited 12 Jun 13:14]

I spoke to Marti, when he did his lap of honour 'goodbye to the fans' prior to 'gardening leave'.
I said "please stay!" - his response was immediate, open, honest and heartfelt.
Shaking my hand he said " I REALLY want to!" and his eye to eye contact and mouth grimace (displayed when we cannot have what we want) told a tale of a man who DOES want to be here!
He could have ignored, shrugged, said 'we'll see' etc. but he didn't!
Talking to others after the game they got the same vibe ! |

The name fits rather well. We carry him hobbling back and forth not pressing not tackling falling over and then he scores and we all acclaim him as our saviour. He isn't and that is apparent. No one is 'scared' by him.
Yes he sometimes scores goals but often doesn't! |

Could the following 'Orwellian future' with managerial job application occur at Loftus Road or has it already??
QPR Mangerial Pre- Application (filtered by AI)
AI: Are you simply a Yes man? Please answer Yes or No
ANSWER: "No!"
AI: You have answered NO. Thankyou for your time but you have not passed the Pre-App, Good day!
Tries again:
AI: Are you simply a Yes man? Please answer Yes or No
ANSWER: "Yes!"
AI: You have answered Yes. You have passed the Pre-App. We shall now ask you a few more questions.
AI: Are you the sort of person who will do what the CEO says:
without question?
without moving any negative facial muscle?
without taking credit for anything good?
being openly criticised for any wrong decision the CEO makes? and
accepting that black is white?
Please answer Yes or No
Answer: Yes - to all!
AI: Great ! Welcome to QPR.
Please sign your name on the form we have just printed and scan.
(Please use a black ink pen)
AI: You appear to have used the wrong colour pen and have been unable to demonstrate understanding of the Club's requirements.
We have told you black is white!
If you cannot do what we and the CEO want we suggest that autocracy is not for you! Good day!

Yes, of course Eze. Being an R's supporter I have watched his career development and progression and having him inside and Madueka outside we definitely pose a threat. Grealish did the same!
But we are in awe of Carry Lame and he is not comparably talented with ball at foot as the three mentioned. Lame supporters will say he scores goals and is masterful in defence, and turn a blind eye to all that jogging backwards and forwards not pressing, not involved play.
The argument that Carry Lame is good for England is the same as saying that arm bands are good for swimmers, yes you need them to keep you afloat but for a lot of the time they do not actually contribute to your development and by continued reliance you prevent your own development.
So reverse it, have Carry Lame there as a last resort and if we have a penalty, bring hm on, but have other players start that teams are not expecting and who, surprisingly, can run at the defence - as I say, down the centre and on the wings.
As long as we have Carry Lame as arm bands and don't develop new starting players we shall continue to sink and like arm bands that have gone beyond their useful life (and I don't mean the goal he sneaks in at the death) we too shall feel deflated!
But to many, Carry Lame is a god to be worshipped and applauded but actually he isn't and wee have more talented players that would pose a threat! |

For me (and 51% of the time I talk 'round things') there were and are three issues:
(i) The constant passing back and forth across the field each side of the halfway line
(ii) The lack of players having the ability to run at the defence -through the middle !!
(iii) Sloppy ball control
(i) The first of these allows teams to either sit back and wait for (iii) then break. All teams know that its going to go to one side or the other and then a cross into Lame in the centre. Admittedly Lame is on the end of the ball when it eventually gets to him and Lame takes a good penalty but, for 85 minutes I always feel he does very very little and we shouldn't keep playing him hoping he will do something.
(ii) Watching Spain, Portugal, Netherlands, Germany, Japan, South Korea, The Ascension Islands and the Pitcairn Islands teams they attack through the middle AND the wings rather than back and forth back and forth pass to wing, run down the wing and cross to Lame. Defences need to be put on the backfoot by variety in attack, sometimes wing, sometimes central run, sometimes cross - we put no opposition on the bnack foot!
(iii) There is NO EXCUSE whatsoever for the sloppiness especially when the attack has no real threats. Yes Spain and Portugal had their sloppy moments yesterday but the attacks covered that.
We are poor and will be as long as we keep aiming for Lame in the centre.
(Another from my 51% contributions)
(iii) |

"Ball is in our NET , how many times have we said that?" |

I've never seen Evita, I don't like Lloyd Webber but the lyrics that Sir Tim Rice penned for the song 'Oh What a Circus' are really apt for Kenneth Paal's departure.
This won't be popular and you can hit as many dislikes as you wish but, for me, he did more harm than he did good!
I have watched from the Loft time and time again how he allowed the opposition to get to the goal line and cross into our box and then seen the net bulge because he failed to tackle, block, stop the cross. I have watched teams time and again target our left flank and cut in.
Even away games, where friends have attended and we have gone a goal or two down, I have simply asked (knowing the answer) was the ball crossed from the left goal line or did they get round Paal?
He was great going forward, I have also said that time and again but in the balance of appreciation did he do more positive going forward than he did negative in defence?
I wish him well but we could not afford to keep having him allow teams to get past him and so I am glad that he has gone - we need a defence and, I'm sorry, he was not very good in that role play! |

Had we been relegated I would never watch it and I don’t set out to watch it but it IS a moment, not unlike Zamora’s goal and has the added bonus of knowing that THAT goal was like a dagger to all Man Utd fans who were waiting to celebrate!
It has so much going for it and I place pulling the rug from under Man Utd ahead if beating Derby!! |
