QPR ready to let Traore go as club cuts its wage bill

[midland R]

went to the same school as anton, head up you're #### comprehensive.will be glad to see the back of him.

[bushcelt1]

would cream that division on the wing. must be on good money if we are thinking of him to trim the wage bill. must have other targets if he heads out.

[Brian Wilson]

Liability - Get rid!

Warnock really signed some rubbish when he got cash - Barton, SWP, Ferdinand, Traore, Young and yeah I know his hands were tied early on with Flavio but still...he signed them

[SuperHoopNik]

Yun is the only left back we have now? Simpson, Onuoha and Hill can play there if needed though, but Redknapp will probably buy a new left back anyway

Hill?! I hope not

[Shepherds Mush]

Would imagine Harriman can switch from being a RB to a LB if needed but a proven replacement would be better.

Decent squad midfielder but awful defender - wont be sorry to see Traore go

[QPR71]

I feel he has the right attributes but loses concentration, which is not on

[QprSinceBirth]

Injured injured and more injured.

[QPR Richard]

I like Traore. He's not a bad player, just needs a bit of development. Would be a shame to lose him and would really stuff us if he left as we are short on cover.

As to this idea that Onouha, Hill or Simpson can play at LB, why would you weaken the rest of the defence to fill a hole of your own making? Hill has already said he is too slow to play LB. Onouha and Simpson are primarily right-sided players. I'd be interested to know in what games anyone has seen these two play at LB. If you need a LB then get a LB.

We saw plenty of this 'versatility' theory under Hughes. This jack of all trades stuff didn't work. Horses for courses should be the order of the day.

Any pro-footballer can play a number of positions. Whether they do it well or not is another matter.

[Ric-Roc]

Too soft. Tries to get subbed out every second game. Won't miss him myself.

This. Although as been mentioned already who to replace him? The Korean looks jank.

[Ric-Roc]

Hill?! I hope not

Did you not see what happened to Hill last season when asked to play LB? Got absolutely murdered. Albeit the PL Clint Hill is NOT a LB.

[LBLOCK]

Who will take up the role of Glass Man and win The Mathew Rose Award each season if Armbands is sold?

Technically wonderful player, pacey, skillfull and can cross a ball. I don't see him fancying being kicked up in the air every Tuesday / Saturday in the NPC. Shame.

Interesting though that this comes at the end of the same week where I saw Levy would look to offload Asso-Ekotto and Spuds. Now there's a player, great character and a cracking barnet

yeh of course, thats why i said I hope not to Hill playing LB. I dont even think he should be starting if we are serious about getting back to the PL.
I know he is a hero but he's a backup at best IMO.

[erikmata]

I think he is one of those sour grapes, work rate low and not interested in breaking a bone to win... Too many times have I seen him overplayed down the left hand side walking back. I think he will be sold if we get a decent bid.

I agree with you mate. Said to my pal last season when you've got players like Hill & Derry in your PL squad you're in trouble. Hill was one of our better players making a bigger mockery of our 'superstars'
