Before tonight’s match, all I wanted to see was the sign of progress and that would have satisfied me whatever the result. I wanted to see something visual that would tell me more about Paolo Sousa and what he wants to achieve with the team. By the end of the night, I got the answers I was looking for and came away from Loftus Road encouraged.
Just when you think watching QPR couldn’t be any worse or leaving you wondering where your passion has gone, there’s always those blooming ladies around to cheer you up!
This was a pulsating match from start to finish in trecherous conditions that made for a thoroughly engrossing encounter by two very good football teams.
Have you ever, ever seen anything like it? Gosh, miserable doesn’t even go close to summing up this abject and inept display.
It’s not often I come away feeling deflated, but that had to be one of the worst performances I’ve ever seen from QPR in all my years following and we’ve been treated to some pretty dire ones in the last decade or two!
A lot of fans around me were complaining why the player’s weren’t getting stuck in, but they probably didn’t understand that it was very difficult for our men to get close enough to the United players.
At times United passed the ball around superbly. It was slick and incisive and designed to pull us about and create space down the sides. They did this really well throughout the match, but we were equal to their final ball when we had to be for the majority of the time.
I don’t want to lecture the players for the performance because it was an important three points over a solid side at this level, but we really could have made life a lot easier for ourselves had we applied a few basics and played with a plan.
