Commentator: "Utd have just sat back in their shape & picked Rangers off on the break".

Had City or any other top half side done that, QPR would have just sat in their own half & taken a 0-0.

Why does Harry change it for this game ?

What's he done, broke a nail?


Back injury. Ferguson gave him painkillers as he does with Rooney but it it didn't work.

Probably spend half of next season in plaster & miss most Holland international games due to sudden relapses.

See my post for your answer Ted.There is a very good reason Spurs have'nt been beaten by the rags this season it's that good ol arry is no longer the Spuds manager.

So you're blaming QPR for taking the game to United?
Do you really think they're purposely doing this to spite us and allow them to win?
Rags have a better attack and worse defence than us, makes sense to take the game to them and exploit their weaknesses.

At least you are consistent in your defence of the rags.

No. It doesn't. It could work of course, if you are lucky, but so it could v City, Spurs or Chelsea.

If QPR play open, they generally lose wheras when they have playee tight they have got results. Harry has chosen that method out of the blue, against the sidemost likely to exploit it.

What we are seeing is the Fat Sam 'nothing to lose' mentality. We've no chance so we'll have a go & hope for the best, then a bottle of wine.

Rags look poor without Rooney/RVP.

Rooney on the bench with a 'sinus problem'.

You need to grow up when twisting people's words to suggest they are losing deliberately tbf.

The goal was a screamer - that happens sometimes, QPR have done well actually. It's hardly like they've been wide open.

Not sure I would go as far as to say that they have done well - I don't think the style of football they are trying to play should be a problem but individuals are repeatedly shitting themselves in possession. Despite the fact that we are the Champions, teams are still much more afraid of them.

*I realise this sounds like a contradiction, 'teams' was the wrong word - I more meant that individual players seem to suffer from the pressure of playing against them and make more mistakes

Did you see the way they played v City & most other top half sides ?

That would have made it difficult for the rags to break them down. Rags have just been able to play their usual game without having any questions asked. The fact they are not brilliant is because; they are not brilliant.

I see where you're coming from. But you've said it yourself. Rags are better going forward than we are and thus more likely to unpick them. Southampton, took the game to us didn't they? They didn't sit back

I'm talking about QPR.

They are shit. They hit on a method for getting results & got results. They changed it today. Rags haven't been very good or they would be 5 up.

About 6 times they have. It's not their fault the rags didn't score.
