Premier League 30th December

[avonspurs]

Well that was a first half of quality from QPR. You can see why they're challenging at the top of the league.

I wouldn't fancy being in the same room as Joe Jordan after that.

 

[avonspurs]

The really annoying thing is that I was hoping for a QPR win. Not that I love QPR because I dont, I actually hate them. It's just I hate Liverpool more and their pathetic fans constant grasping to the past and belief that they are a 'big' club.

 

[Mr Pink]

what puzzles me is how lacking in fight they are, but ultimately they havn't got the quality and Harry's selection seems strange...

 

[mpickard2087]

QPR are clearly lacking a player like Bentley.

There are clear Jenas and Huddlestone shaped holes in the centre of midfield too

 

[Col_M]

it's Harry's job to get them fighting for survival, when they won a game he was a genius but when they lose it's the players fault #MrTeflon

 

[ShelfSide18]

Oh I remember this, watching a Harry Redknapp side go into a game looking totally unprepared for it. Liverpool are great at exploiting full backs, with Suarez drifting wide, advanced full backs etc and QPR time and time again are left with 2 on 1s in this area.

Look at this player influence map from the first half, think I've spotted your problem Harry...

Does make you wonder why they brought in so many players over the summer and most of them are shite. Would have been better off getting a handful in who were semi decent.

 

[nedley]

why Harry hasn't got someone man marking Suarez I will never know. Also how he turned him down when managing us I will never know

Wasn't as good as Pav.

That was Mark Hughes at his transfer best. i think only Roque Santa Cruz is his one good signing in a career of shopping like Paris Hilton

On paper some were good signings to be fair
Fabio and Park from United and Granero from Madrid all looked to be decent players but none of them have produced. Also signed Hoillett from Blackburn who many on this forum were hoping we d sign.

At the start of the season I thought they would finish top half - how wrong i was!

 

[aRTy]

Was they booing Granero because Tarrabt couldn't take the freekick?

That might require looking through one of those multi-page tactical dossiers though... and they're useless if you listen to some people!

Didn't Mark Hughes bring Dembele to the premiership?

possibly, i forgot he jilted Fulham at the altar

Nelsen and Samba when at Blackburn too. There were some good signings when he was in charge there to be fair.

 

[King of Otters]

And N'Zonzi, I think.

And Pedersen, who, iirc, was the answer to all our left wing prayers at one point.

 

[Marty]

Alright, so we've established that Mark Hughes did make a couple of good signings at Blackburn (you all forgot Bentley, too).

This QPR team is still absolutely rubbish, and I don't think Harry's team selection helped them today, it was a very weird and I thought unbalanced side. This second half has been terrible to watch.

 

[Col_M]

ok ok when you play Supermarket Sweep you might get a few Beef Joints with the frozen Chicken Dippers

Are people forgetting who we are? We are tottenham, you just know it is written in the stars that harry will come back and batter us! It is the Tottenham Way!
