Legs

[stainrodisalegend]

What a difference he made when he came on. Don't understand why some fans don't warm to him. So athletic and strong. The way he got us out of trouble at one point, movingthe ball across the penalty area, charging up the left and hitting an inch perfect 50 yard pass to play Routledge in on goal was prem class.

Wish I cd say the same for Ramage. I know when people like me were criticising him lots of fans whose opinions I respect said "oh, he's improved, look at his workrate and attitude and how he always claps us" etc but I'm sorry, today he was pants. The way some v average Derby left winger roasted him for pace at one point was embarrassing. V relieved Legs is back.

For all this talk of needing a striker I think its actually the defence that, if anything, is the area we need to worry about.

I agree. He is a quality player. What a vision for a fullback, even he really isent just that kind of player. Ido also agree on the defence bit, but I am not sure it is that easy to find players enough to cover for our attacking minded midfield and of course do count Routledge and company in there. Today, on a few occassions we were taken quite nicely on the counterattack. Even Mahon did on an occation or two fail to drop low enough.

Again, another top performance, much better at right back, solid player A+

[stan_bowles]

Ramage is a centre back playing in a right back position.And it shows he is not really suitable for that position.Need to get a genuine right back in during the Jan window.

Why...? Legs is awesome there so keep him there and have Ramage as backup.

Rather have him as midfielder first and right back as back up.Not convinced he is best used at right back.

Would agree normally, but assuming Watson stays, can't see past him / mahon and Faurlin in the middle now. SO if it;s the case of legs being a sub midfielder or playing RB, it would be RB for me.

[stan_bowles]

But that is playing Legs for the sake of it.I would rather buy a genuine right back and if Legs wont play as back up to midfield or RB then i would sell him.

[sirlesferdinand]

I always thought Legs would be better playing right back, ever since I saw that brilliant defensive display against Reading at there place last year when Sousa put him there. Im happy to see Magiliton putting him in that posistion, its paying off. He's 100 times better than Ramage!! Much more composed with the ball. We got enough quality in midfield with Faurlin and Buzsaky, then Mahon to add to that and also Rowlands next season hopefully. I think Magilton is putting out the perfect 11 that we can use, all in there right posistions. 4 goals in every game in the past 3 games, it shows he has got it right. Hopefully we can bang in another 4 against Leicester on Friday. Im interested to see the odds for it

Not really. Holloway moving Gallen from striker to right mid, to centre mid, to left mid ion one game and subbing everyone but him, was playing someone for the sake of playing them.

This is totally different becasue he is a top class RB. If he didn't cut it of course you;d be right, but he used to play there and has proved to be superb there, hence my point. Plus, given how free flowing our team game is now and how much the full backs have licence to get forwad, i think he'd probably quite like playing there, and ironically may actually get forward more than playing the disciplined defensive midfield role, which requires someone to sit given all the other flair players in the team.

[stan_bowles]

That's a pretty decent argument there Del mate.

V good post, particularly the last point.

[m_cooper]

leggs is a very competent rb,also he is our most versatile player,who can play rb,midfield or ch;and i would say he has the best engine;up and down all day,probably the fittest player at qpr for a long time

[issay]

He certainly looks very comfortable on the ball,confident to track back and win the ball again. also always looking for the pass instead of a punt..Class player you can see he is the number 1 choice..

This has to be the first time I have seen these words and Legiertwoods name mentioned in the same breath.
