Attacking line up that. My only concern is Fish And Bagan at CB but other than that I like it.

We'll miss Chambers.

Good to see an attacking side, have to win today because of only drawing last week.

Rubin as a no 8? I actually think this may suit him. Good to see El Ghazi not in the squad. Hood options on the bench.

They have a giant centre forward so we need to stop the crosses at source.

Looks like rubin playing the deeper role like he did at villa, I think this is his best position taking the ball deep off the back 4 and driving forward

I dont see Bagan as a centre back so id prefer to see Goutas alongside Fish with Bagan left back and O'Dowda dropping to the bench. May seem a bit harsh as O'Dowda has been good this season but the front 4 played well last game.

Tend to agree ref: Chambers. We are missing some dog and muscle in middle of the park but that is a youthful, attacking line up.

The best we’ve looked this season was Robertson and Turnbull as the holding two

Agreed. Mannsverk has come in and hasnt really improved us. I know both were injured at the time so may have had a forced hand; hoping to see him match his value and hype today.

Rubin, the stage is set young man

As someone who passionately believes this is Rubins position i hope I am not proved wrong. I would have sent him to Belgium in the last window to adapt though.

Its too early in Bagans career to be a centre half, he lacks the physicality but positions himself in 1-2-1's well

We'll score its whether we can stop them enough

QPR missing both their key strikers and their two key center-halves . Not even one of their four forwards today can really score . They are definitely there for the taking .



Their key defense is out and their forward line is almost non existent . Riza picked a very attacking formation . We should win …..fingers crossed.?

We sold our allocation weeks ago so why didn't we get offered both tiers? QPR worn sell out. Strange

This as got hallmarks of going defensive later in game...hope not as its disastrous for us..

I thought he grew into the game and was veery good in the second half when we changed tactics.

The manager is going to need to drop a lot of levels before he gets a first team manager's job again. We can't play 4231 very well
