QPR: Can they stay up?


  QPR will once again roll the dice this transfer window and gamble for their Premier League survival. Tony Fernandes has splashed the cash before but on players that were coming to the end of their careers and some say looking for their last big pay day out of the naive chairman. He will have to dip into those deep pockets again.

 With Harry Redknapp in charge a man known for his wheeling and dealing in the transfer market, QPR must gamble to secure Premier League survival. The wage bill at Loftus Road is one of the highest in England. The likes of Cesar, Bosingwa, Park, Granero, SWP, Remy and of course Barton all on big wages if Rangers do go down and miss the new big money TV deal and it will be a massive blow to the club.

 QPR must take the risk to stay in the league Harry Redknapp has improved the attitude of QPR in recent weeks. They have looked more like a team, defending much better and even picked up away wins. They are in fact unbeaten in 2013.

 They have been linked to Jake Livermore, Niko Kranjcar and Yann M’Villa. QPR are still after the West Brom pair Jonas Olsson & Peter Odemwingie too, and you would expect Harry will pull off another couple of loan deals by the end of the month. The facts are QPR are still in a mess, but if one man can get them out of it, it’s Redknapp. He must though strengthen the defence, with Ryan Nelson leaving the club at the end of the month QPR have to replace him as he has been the best defender by far.

After this weekend’s events what have we learnt in the Premier League. Firstly its Man City’s title to lose, 11 wins and 1 draw in the league at this point they look unstoppable. Man United have a problem in centre midfield. Rooney is filling a gap there and Fergie knows he has a problem. There’s a lack of creative talent in the centre of the park, missing out on Nasri & Sneijder is showing plus the loss of Scholes showed how good he really was. Young could move into the centre where he did play for Aston Villa which could be an option. Tottenham look to be firing on all cylinders now, pace down both wings and they have the creative spark with Modric and Van Der Vaart. Now with Scott Parker doing the dirty work they look in good condition for top 4. Newcastle United’s first test against City was always going to be hard after an easy start to the season, but they do look solid at the back and have been exciting to watch. Chelsea look to have forgotten how to defend, lost th...

Where has as it all gone wrong for Chelsea?

After Chelsea’s defeat in Germany to Bayer Leverkusen manager Andre Villas-Boas is a man under serious pressure no matter what he thinks. As Chelsea sank to their third defeat from their last five games I look into where has it gone wrong? Well Chelsea was on a run of six unbeaten going in to their game at Loftus Road towards the end of October. A game where Chelsea thought they would walk all over their London rivals. This didn’t happen that day in West London Chelsea lost the game and lost the plot. The repercussions of that match have still left an effect. QPR won 1-0, but the game will also be remembered for John Terry’s racist slur, Chelsea’s ill-disciplined team (7 yellows and 2 reds). Plus AVB was fined £12,000 after the game for comments made about the referee. Since that match Chelsea have only beaten Blackburn Rovers & Everton on penalties. Their defence looks weak, Terry is getting exposed and David Luiz is not the best partner. Centre of midfield is a problem, Lampard ...

Top of the table looking the same.....

As we head into the international break this season’s title race looks like it’s going to be the same old faces, with a similar outcome. Man United sit top and 5 points clear of Arsenal. United have had probably the most average season for a long time. The defence is not great and the midfield has been a lot better. But they have done what United always do, get results when not playing well. Hernandez, Berbatov & Nani have been the main men for me. The little Mexicans first season in England have seen him scored 16 goals in all competitions this season. He is a true goal poacher, he reminds me of Ole Gunnar Solskjear who worked well with any partner he was teamed, Hernandez has done the same with Berbatov and Rooney. Nani has stepped up his game a lot he had big boots to fill in the size of Ronaldo. He had been compared to his fellow countryman but never really was as good. However he has been a key player this season and has scored 10 times. He has done very well but I feel their ...
