I have noticed that even Harry isn't using the best available starting lineup for QPR. He is good at wheeling and dealing, but he needs to improve on selections. That is not good enough.

He is clearly not using the best team. Easy to see. The likes of Mackie, Derry, Hill and Jenas should not be in the starting lineup!

It is not only because they are 4-1 down at the moment I am saying this.

He's right - Mackie and Derry definitely aren't premier league standard. Granero should be the first name on the team sheet in my opinion while Park and SWP should probably get more game time

the guy is a genius. they will get relegated and his reputation will remain intact because the media and general fans are under his spell. he walks away unscathed.

That run of results he's having at QPR is what I was fearing could happen when he took over at Spurs. I think being passed over for the England job has taken a lot out of him. I would seriously question bringing in and starting Jenas in a relegation battle.

But to be fair, they were already relegated before he assumed control; and they've been picking up more points since the change in manager.

This tells me you havent seen much of QPR this season and the fact that saying the last two have been utter dog shit, would be in all honesty a insult to dog shit.

As for Granero, a team like QPR cant be playing both Taarbabt and him at the same time when they are struggling and in a relegation fight espicially when they dont a have great DM's

The fact is Mackie is running his heart out for the team, that is full of diva's and as well as the fact, he looks like one, likely to score the same cant be said for the rest. He is prem quality but Derry i agree is shite but you can argue the first point is valid with him

He should pick all the black players. No doubt. If they aren't black then they are worthless.

To be honest - no I haven't. I try to avoid them as I can't stand 'em :p But from what I have seen Granero has looked good. He was good against us at WHL and SWP was good against us at Loftus road. As for Park, sometimes players who haven't played well under previous managers can be a revelation under a new manager so that was my thinking (because we know from his Man Utd days that he can play). Clearly he hasn't been up to much in training though then!

I wouldn't go along with that. I thought there were enough games left for him to work his magic. They've got some decent players, Harry's not a total jackass and there was a transfer window on the horizon. They gave us two very tough games.

Half of the team just dont want to be there the fact is in their last game Jenas, Samba, Cesar and Townsend looked like the best players added with M'Bia (against us) tbh

From what I've seen of him, Mackie seems exactly the sort of player the Queers need in their team. He's not the most talented, although he can beat a player, but his workrate puts Taarabt to shame.

I agree with Spurs King (although not on Mackie - he's worth his place). Haven't been too impressed by Harry's choices of line-up so far. It's gotten to the point now where he's going to need to start playing more offensive teams because the draws aren't going to cut it anymore. Only wins will do. Granero is the main player that he needs to find room for.

He's a nightmare to play against. Just won't give you a minute's peace.
