None because Austin is unfit and Adel won't fit in the team at the moment.

Killer Question Adel or Austin

And the answer to this poll is Adel, obviously. I go to football to be entertained. I don't think most of you appreciate how ridiculously lucky we were to have several years of nutmegs, shoulder dummies, outrageous passes and childish tantrums every week.
Charlie Austin is a decent striker at this level, but he's nothing special. Andy Thompson scored 20+ goals for us in 2001 - when did you last think about him? But I bet those of you who are old enough to remember Wegerle or Currie have lots of good memories.
Austin or Adel: who are you going to tell your grandchildren about?

And *even if* we had to build the team around him I'm pretty certain we'd look a lot more threatening with Adel in the no10 role than we have done all season.

I would like to tell my grandchildren about entertainment but even more so would like to them them that I was there when Rangers lifted a cup or won the league as thats what goes down in the history books. In 50years outside of QPR who would even remember Adel played for us and how great he was in the championship?? however we are in the record books forever for lifting the title
You also do Austin a diservice above as if he stays with us long enough and scores how he has been he will eclipse the amount of goals that Adel scored for us and I really believe can go down as a Rangers folk hero just like Adel is.
Give me a regular reliable goal scorer every day of the week over a maverick

Clearly I was the best player on the pitch.
I scored 5 and made 7 last ditch tackles.
We lost 5-0 but the rest of my team were sh it!

And the idea that you can be either entertaining or successful isn't fair; in this division Adel was both a maverick and a regular goal scorer. Plus he got double marked every game, allowing the Mackies and Smiths loads more space than any of our wingers get this season.
Yep agree Austin could stay with us and be a folk hero, and I hope he does. But let's not pretend he's particularly special player to watch
