Ben Watson

[paulw]

Given our performance last night and the fact that Rowly is so injury prone, surely getting him in has to be a top priority ?

[JoeHylton]

It's a good shout Paul .... but we do have a rather large choice of midfield players on the books. Last's night's rumour ..... Marcus Bent!!!!!!!!!!

[paulw]

Agree Joe we have a large choice of midfielders, but are they good enough ?

I think we should get rid of the ones that aren't, and bring in quality

[QPR1234]

similar to our striker situation

we have at least 5 recognised strikers on the books.. however we need to sign 2 more because 5 are not good enough..

same for midfield.. we have lots on our books, but sadly legs, mahon, alberti and injury prone rowlands means we need some1 else

It's a good shout Paul .... but we do have a rather large choice of midfield players on the books. Last's night's rumour ..... Marcus Bent!!!!!!!!!!

If you ask me, I think he'd be a quality addition. Great professional who will give his all and set an example to those who don't. He has a wealth of experience at this level and beyond and at 31 still has plenty of pace and strength. He'll hold the ball up and bring players like Taarabt, Routledge and Buzz into the game whilst complimenting Jay Simpson (if we land him too).

Top pro and I sincerely hope we pull this one off.

[BennyBoyRs]

Oh, and Ben Watson is a must after the way we've started. We may have many midfielders, but he's better than most of them, plus he's a good leader.

[WeAreQPR12]

Benny spot on and agree.
He is a must signing.

[BennyBoyRs]

Benny spot on and agree.
He is a must signing.

Both, or one in particular?

[WeAreQPR12]

Well I was going to say the 2nd not the 1st but what the hell and come here and give me some :red_heart:

[BennyBoyRs]

Jackanackanory...

Seriously though, Bent would be a great addition to our strike force.

[HammersmithR]

Marcus Bent has never been prolific and has played for about a million clubs.........it does make you think, why?

[WeAreQPR12]

No he wouldn't Benny.
Not good enough.
Bring in Simpson as he has pace and looks a decent prospect but I don't see bent as a positive move more signs of desperation which is becoming reality.

[BennyBoyRs]

I think he'll prove you wrong.
Great hold up play and easilly an improvement on our current lot.

[sirpiechucker]

Agree completely with Benny. It doesn't matter how many players we have if none of them are particularly great. Watson would be an improvement on them all even Buzsaky. He scores goals, he can lead the side and he creates goals.

Bent would be a decent signing and if we do land Simpson then I agree the two could work well together.
