    It doesn't matter that we've kept our core when our squad is largely shite. And our only two genuine match winners - Remy & Taraabt - look like they'll move on.

    People are deluded if they think Dunne Hill SWP Zamora Barton Simpson Henry etc. are going to make the grade this year. That's a good championship side but a ****ing dreadful premiership one.

    Southampton have a good academy, lots of cash, a record of spending wisely on players with resale value and a decent manager with good connections. We've got an obsession for free transfers and Arry Redknapp filling his mates coffers.
    If you're using Tarrabt as an example of a match winner then I think it's safe to say you could add Austin to that list..... 'probably' add our whole defence to that list as well as its arguably the best defence among our main competition and will no doubt stop a few teams scoring important goals, making them potentially 'match winners'....... Also looks likely that Remy will be here for at least the start of the season (until the next transfer window anyway, where we can do more business).

      There's no question that we need to add more quality players to the starting eleven, and do it soon.
      Dunne, Hill, SWP, Zamora and Henry are all squad players. They can be decent as late subs. Only Barton and Simpson can be expected to start. I think they can be both do well for us next year as starters.

          If we're to play a 3.5.2 how bad does our starting 11 look as it stands....

          Green - fine

          Ned - fine
          Rio - with Hill and Dunne as back up, fine
          Caulker - fine

          Simpson (rwb) - fine
          Yun (lwb)- ?

          Phillips - ? But should be fine
          Barton - fine
          Traore - fine

          Austin - fine
          Remy - fine

          This is just my opinion what the team should look like with our current players. There's no doubt we're short on players but comparing our starting 11 to Southampton's ours is the best... and actually a very decent 1.

                Phillips and Traore in the middle? Headsgone mate
                As it stands our back 3 and strikers yes potentially providing we keep Remy
                Our 11 better then Saints 11? - Hmmm, not looking at that central midfield area of ours

                Fonte Hooiveld Yoshida
                Clyne Shneiderlin Wanyama Ward-Prowse Tadic
                Ramirez
                Rodriguez Pelle

                  I've said it a lot on other threads that our midfield is our week link at this point as we are very short there. But as an overall, for now, in other positions our starting 11 look very strong especially if Remy stays...... Regarding Phillips and Traore playing in those central positions, I clearly said using our 'current player's'... Although admittedly I forgot about Henry and would play him there for one of Traore or Phillips (probably instead of Traore)

                    I think our current squad is built for 4-4-2 at the moment so Harry might have to have a rethink until he gets some more players in.
                    Supporting QPR isn't just about a football team. It's about roots and identity.

                      Think you are right^^ but I should believe we were planning for a 4-4-2 formation regardless.

Why do people do this to make us look as bad as people that are doing terrible. Last week blackpool,had a bettter squad, this week its southampton. Dont get it, i really dont.
                        They've still got Rodriguez, Wanyama, Schneiderlin, Ward-Prowse & Clyne among others. No doubt they'll bring a couple more youngsters through this year too (as they always do). Plus their chairman has come out & said today that every penny they've brought in through sales is available for Koeman to re-invest on players.

                        Don't get me wrong, they've lost alot of talent & they will no way be as good as they were last season, but personally think they'll comfortably finish above us next year.

                          Completely agree. Problem is with the Rio and Caulker purchase it looks like we're planning for a 3 at the back (ned, Rio, Caulker) in a 3.5.2 formation!.. but with our overall player's a 4.4.2 would suit us better (at the moment as there's plenty more time to buy)

                            There going to struggle. They have no depth to there squad now. the players that would have stepped up to replace their main players are now going to be expected to carry them with kids stepping up in their place

                            Even the Saints fans think there down
