Is there anyone in our squad that's not unsettled? After past clear-outs, this begins to feel like Groundhog Day

Rowe and Stoke defender Sadiki both played in this match
As did El-K (so he wont feature on Thursday) as did Kakay.
But Furlong and Doughty didn't play...so straight into the team....or am I reading to match.

Queen Park Rangers midfielder Sandro is currently in Antalya as the Brazilian midfielder edges closer to a move to Antalyaspor.
The 30-year old midfielder is at the Turkish side’s training camp with his agent to discuss his move to Turkey and both sides have reached an agreement claim TSpor.
However, Antalyaspor are moving carefully as the club’s physios are examining reports of the player’s injury record. A series of injuries have hampered Sandro’s career both at Tottenham and QPR, limiting him to just over 200 club games during his career.
Antalyaspor want to avoid the same thing happening to them and therefore want detailed medical reports.

If we can't get rid this window we should just pay off the rest of his contract.
All out goings from us on sky,I was hoping we would get our business done early 
.. SLF better be working his balls off to get some quality in.

Probably need outgoing before any incomings
Still 22 days of the window left no need to panic yet is there? It's QPR! There will be signings.
We need a 22 a season striker. Tube driver perhaps?
Looks like Wigan are rolling the dice with Ravel Morrision in an attempt to stay up.
If he contributes with play and goals, as he did for us, it will have been a good gamble.
Wigan Athletic: Ravel Morrison training with Championship club
Ravel Morrison (left) played three senior games for Manchester United before joining West Ham in 2011
Wigan manager Warren Joyce hopes midfielder Ravel Morrison can rediscover the 'X factor' to help the Latics' Championship relegation fight.
Former England Under-21 international Morrison is training with the Latics.
It is the latest attempt to kick-start the troubled career of a player rated as one of the best to emerge at Manchester United since Paul Scholes.
Joyce said: "If you asked Paul Pogba to name the best he has played with, Ravel Morrison would be up there with them."
The 23-year-old has left Italian side Lazio after making just eight appearances in 18 months.
It is the latest chapter in a career that has failed to ignite in the same way as that of Pogba and Jesse Lingard, who were part of the same 2011 FA Youth Cup-winning team.
Morrison's ability has never been in question.
Lee Clark, who managed Morrison at Birmingham - one of his six clubs and where he made most appearances, 30 - described him as the best English player since Paul Gascoigne.
His attitude has been questioned though.
His boss at United, Sir Alex Ferguson, excused a number of misdemeanours before eventually losing patience and releasing him in January 2012
Sam Allardyce, who worked with the player at West Ham, suggested Morrison was not prepared to play through pain.
But the major issues have been away from the pitch.
When he was 16, Morrison was a passenger in a car that was stopped by police and found to contain drugs and guns in the boot.
In 2008, he was cautioned for common assault.
He pleaded guilty to witness intimidation in February 2011 and was fined £600 three months later for throwing his girlfriend's phone through an open window during an argument.
What happens now?
Ravel Morrison (right) was part of the same FA Youth Cup-winning side as Jesse Lingard (left) and the world's most expensive player Paul Pogba
Wigan manager Joyce was Morrison's manager for Manchester United's reserve team from 2010 until the player left for West Ham in 2012.
Latics coach Paul McGuinness was in charge of the Under-18 side including Pogba that beat Sheffield United 6-3 on aggregate to win the Youth Cup, with Morrison scoring two crucial goals in the second leg.
Between them, the pair hope to get Morrison back to the player his early promise suggested he would become.
"It is a long shot on his fitness but we have nothing to lose," said Joyce.
"He was one of the stars of a team that included Paul Pogba, Jesse Lingard and Will Keane. Talent-wise he is an X-million pound player, among the very best I have worked with.
"Some of the things he can do with a ball are phenomenal really. His balance and the way he glides around players is something a coach would be deluded if they claimed to have helped.
"Unfortunately, outside influences gave him guidance for their own ends.
"I am trying to help him get his career back on track.
"But it has to be on a timescale that is going to help us now, not in four months' time."

This could be a good move for both parties - we need striker - he needs a platform for his next permanent move. "QPR are weighing up an audacious loan bid for Everton striker Arouna Kone"
Polter going is no good however if he cannot settle in London (and bare in mind we signed the only Aussie (Ned Zelic ) that couldn't settle in London), then we should let him go. Just hope we can find another striker that is good in the air..

That'll be one capable of actually playing 22 games a season presumably........
I haven't been the least bit excited about any of the players we have been linked with so far.
