Kevin C, yes i did watch your game and like i said you were lucky, as usual. Two own goals, a dodgy penalty and a deflection aswell as the ref not awarding a pen to them at 1-0. Did you see your team surronding the ref when they thought he did give a pen? Spoilt brats.
Believable2
Unbelievable2
First own goal would have been a goal anyway, their pen was clearly offside, clear push by huth on mata and hazards shot didn't take a deflection, it swerved.
Good result for you today though, I thought we were the only team who couldn't score against qpr!

As much as I hate the Russians it's hard to imagine a team that wins 4-0 being lucky. And no I didn't see the game.

Ok take away the 2 own goals and the pen we would still had won 1-0 with hazard wonder goal! please pls please watch the full 90mins and then tell me we didn't deserve the 3pts!

You did deserve the 3pts but only because Stoke fell apart after the own goal after being quality at the back all season.

Instead of contributing ONLY whilst in possession. I mean, when was the last time he actually made a tackle?!
At times, especially in a 4-4-2 (WITHOUT POSSESSION), it seems we are playing with 10 men, as Bales quest to imitate Ronaldo has seen him LOSE any sense of WORK-RATE!
Isn't Bale supposed to be the fittest player in the squad? Isn't this the same player that ran the length of the pitch, in the latter stages of the game against Inter at the San Siro?
If Bale only used half of those resources to track back, close down and genuinely make attempts to win the ball, the TEAM would benefit hugely. Best thing Bale could do is BE HIMSELF!

Alot of you might not like this but:
Dumbele? Yes he has a silky touch
And a trick but can't see him
Getting 10-15 goals a season nor
Does he bust a gut to get in the box
Not creative enough 4 me.. Nor a
Modric ... More skill then sandro
That's it... Your views??
Mr g
Believable4
Unbelievable3
I don't think we have lost when he has played. He is not a goal scorer, neither was modric.
He breaks up play and makes room, plays a simple pass and gets us decent advanced possession. He, Hugo snd Verts are inspired signings and without them we wouldn't be anywhere near where we are. Dembele had his 1st off day today. Nothing more than that.
Agree6
Disagree0
We are at our best when we move the ball around with gusto = quickly!! Too slow a build up today, Demble must speed-up more when he's got the ball gave away too much.
Agree0
Disagree0
We signed him as modders replacement
He is suppose to be creative not breaking up play and making a simple
Pass.... Is that not sandros or parkers
Job... I dnt think you understood what point I was trying to make
Mr g
Agree1

We tried to sign moutinho as modrics replacement.
Dembele is not modrics replacement and never was. He has just been given that tag because he was a midfield signing in the same window as we sold modric.
Agree3
Disagree0
Dembele was not modrics replacement.
Moutinho was modrics replacement.
He had to play in modrics role because modric wasn't replaced.
COYMFS.
Agree3
Disagree0
So we should leave him out then, because you don't know what his job is.
He reminds me of carrick, very good, very silky, does his job and is a starter in every match he is fit.
Agree0
Disagree1
Don't think we can moan at Dembele this season when he hasn't played he is sorely missed and for me as good a replacement for modric there is out there. I would ask the question of what happened to our vdv replacement, Dempsey is not it. This is where we miss the spark, goals and another option of formation
Agree1
Disagree0
Trying to do like for like comparisons of players when a different system is being developed/deployed is a little difficult. Comparing Dembele and his role to Modric is apples to pears.
Agree0
Disagree0
Mr g, his been playing out of position since we signed him. He is Not suppose to play the role of modric. If you look at his time at fulham he was untoucable playing behind the striker.

That was not good enough today. Where was the desire and drive to beat Harry and Qpr?! Toothless. How typical of us. It doesnt help when you have crap like Adebayor and Defoe upfront. Another missed chance to cement a gap and get Cl, Qpr are rubbish lets face it and that performance wasnt good enough, no excuses.
Time for Levy to step up.

Where have all the adeabayor fans gone? I remember constantly slating the guy last season on this site & praying he was not signed to be told 2 shut up & that he was one of the best strikers about. Where have all you all Ade fans gone? But 2days game again shows how desperate we are 4 a top striker!

After the draw against QPR today I just thought I'd point this out - we currently have 2 points more from the games we've played this season compared to their counterparts last season, and we have the maximum amount of points available against newly promoted teams.

Whoever thought Dawson had a 'quality game' you must have been watching today on acid. He is a long ball donkey. Time to cash in, yes he wears his heart on his sleeve but that isnt enough.
Believable5
Unbelievable9
I thought he played well, he's a defender not a deep lying playmaker. Yes he couldn't manage many decent long balls but he made some excellent well-timed tackles and was solid at the back.

Fair play to ya. You deserve to be abov us. You have more points.
Good luck to you.

Stat for you. On last seasons performances, playing the same teams we have played this season, we are 4 points better off this season.
So who is doing the better job??
It's like AVB had a better point per game record than RDM at Chelsea and was closer to the top 4, so who done the better job there too.
I know I am biased, but I think AVB is a top manager and got a rough deal at yours.
COYMFS.

U might be 4pts better off now than you were last season but it doesnt mean your gonna have more pts than last seaon!

Bit of a silly point you make Kevin.
You said AVB won't do a better job than Harry.
I pointed out, on the same fixtures, points/results wise, he IS doing a better job.
Your point is hypothetical as we don't know how many points AVB will get us.
He had only had 6 months so far.
You make a bit of a silly point really.
You stated a fact, I stated a fact. You was wrong. We can answer your point at the end of the season.
Do you get it now. Fact is, AVB, so far, is doing a better job by getting better results.

Don't worry about them. If they start to fade, they have an owner that will buy them out of trouble.

Disappointing we couldn't get all 3 points today but hopefully it will have shown Levy that we badly need a creative MF and a top drawer striker because lots of teams are gonna try and stop us scoring and look to sneak a win on the break. Sadly we all know Levy can't quite bring himself to spend the big money to bring those sort of players to WHL, hope I'm wrong cos I really think we are just 2 signings away from reallt being able to establish ourselves as a regular top 4 team and maybe more.

Not even a top drawer striker. Maybe we need a better striker against bigger teams, but I think the player we missed more than anything today was VDV. Get in Younes Belhanda on the cheap to play that role!
Agree0

The problem is we struggled against teams that parked the bus last season ...and we had VDV and Modric then. Suggest there might be a different issue ..if Ade had put the rebound away as he should have they would have been forced to open up ...and that is when we usually take teams apart. The teams above us have goal scorers they only need a sniff.

Literally shut up! AVB out off one draw!? You are a total fool, we've won 7, drawn 2 and lost 1 in he last ten matches. That's great form under AVB. Just a small slip up today, what do you think, we're going to win every away game?

You are joking surely.
At the start of the season if you was offered, in jan, a league position above the chavs snd goons, you would of taken it.
At the start of the season if you was offered, in jan, almost 2 points a game, you would of taken it.
At the start of the season, if you was offerd 4 points from man utd and QPR away, you would of taken it.
You kind of knee jerk reaction, to one goalless draw, puts teams in trouble.
Get being the team for ffs, things are looking better than they have for a long time.

Quickly forgot about beating united at old Trafford then? It's embarrassing being a spurs fan with people like you!

AVB out? What a ridiculous thing to say looking at where we are in the table. I think it was a decent point considering QPR are in the fight of their lives and coming off the back of beating Chavski. You can't win everything, you can't go blaming the manager after one small thing doesn't go according to plan. Also, we lost there under Harry, so AVB did better in that respect.

Very very angry right about now!! Ye qpr were going to defend for 90 mins but comes to show you, we need that striker (Adebayor was TERRIBLE again today) and we need that playmaker to split those defences open or get that vital goal! Dawson should never play again. He was so poor. Always tried to go long and looked way of part. And finally, start playing Naughton at right back. Walkers getting way ahead of himself...someone please tell him he ain't Dani Alves. Just concentrate on defending and stop getting caught out!
Believable3

Dawson made some really important tackles in that game, you can't be too hard on the team QPR just parked the bus.
Agree5

We played against a team who has a 45 year old defender that we gave away, wether teams park the bus or not, we should be able to deal with that . The fact that matters is our forwards arent consistent enough . A lot has been said on this site about JD, yes he has scored a lot and carried us well, but he isnt good enough for a potential top 4 team ! As for Ade, well please don't get me started, totally over rated, did enough last year to get his contract so we won't hear from again, what a load of crap . Avb has done well to get us here, what a great manager to get in, but its time for him to stop beating about the bush and tel tight arse Levy that we are in desperate need of a TOP QUALITY CENTRE FORWARD, not one of his bargain bucket miss fits, or this year will end up like last year, all promise and nothing else !!

We needed VDV in that game. That's probably the best performance I've seen from QPR all season, why do teams always seem to up their game against us? Even so, I'm not a fan of parking the bus and they really rode their luck.
