Our style of play

[WeAreQPR12]

I think thats harsh Fox. The reality is we have the best manager in this division and we're extremely lucky to have him. The stick that's been flying around is harsh. I understand results aren't where they need to be but I agree with every word that comes out of Marti mouth and he gets it. He will resolve our problems because he won't just panic and unlike fans on here he will use common sense and logic to turn our season around. Too many passionate fans getting carried away far too early imo.

Personally think our main issues are in defence, midfield and attack. That aside we are heading in the right direction.

Has our playing out from the back cost is many or any goals?
I didn't watch the hull game, not sure if this is more of a topic because of something happened there?

But I don't recall this style that everyone says will lead to disaster that we've been trying to play for a season actually costing us any conceded goals? I don't recall a stray back pass and boom the attackers score as a result?

Maybe it's time to stop the doom and gloom and accept it's not any more risky than any other style, even with our current players.

As for the lack of ability for us to play out from there, that's a different story

Keystone Cops is our style!

It does baffle me how so many modern pros lack the ability to trap a ball dead, pass straight and just be comfortable in possession. Blimey, being genuinely two-footed is a real rarity. I think coaches need to be mindful of their players' limitations before implementing fancy technical tactics to the game.

I've noticed when we're huffing and puffing trying to walk the ball out from the back now we've started trying to chip/dink the ball over the pressing markers. Seems risky asking a player who cant ping a ball 1oyds across the turf to accurately dink it. It also means the receiving player gets a bouncing bobbling ball and will most likely need extra touch(s) to bring ball under control. This really is a recipe for disaster in my view.

Unless all 6/7 defensive players can confidently move the ball with zip and pace it just seems suicidal to be spooning the ball about sideways back and forth amongst themselves across the box. Just one pass goes awry and there's a chain reaction with each subsequent pass/touch getting more hurried and scrambled before possession is lost or ball gets wellied upfield.

I'm not a fan of it at all and find it a very tedious hard watch - I'm already steeling myself to be watching from behind the couch tonight....

Yes coaches that all can play a certain way is right at all levels within the club but we have to buy well too, no ball carriers in the middle of park when we've bought players. Like varane and madsen who seem static is a worry, you would see more energy from Dixon bonner and benny

It's just been covered on the YouTube Fans Forum.

CR stated that we play the same style of football from U8 upwards. Also, we will only recruit coaches that have a proven success with this model. We'll have a long wait to see a more aggressive / direct style of play it would seem.

Whether they can I don't know but we don't move the ball quick enough.
we are ponderous and predictable.
Allowing oppo to get into there shape

Do you think the way we play is to do with our centre backs are slow? We don't really press we generally sit off and we seem static in positions so we r just set.Centre midfield players seem defensive
