    Primarily the stream :D

    Honestly, I don't believe they can get away with not refunding you if it literally didn't work.

    Hemed seems to offer nothing and should not be above Smith in the pecking order. But I actually like the look of Wells. He seems to be willing to do all sorts but the team (and supply of the ball) don't seem to have caught up to him yet.

    Wells is a good player, Hemed not so much.

    He'd fit with our club's management criteria. And he's worked with Harry, there's a plus! He's not for me, I'm afraid, but agree the choices are limited.

    The choices are only as limited as the management allows them to be. We could go young and/or foreign.

    It wouldn’t surprise me at all if Wells and Hemed are obliged to play contractually, which hamstrings whoever the manager is when the best players don’t suit a 442.

    I wonder the same.
    Wells could play on the right of a three behind Hemed, unless they both HAVE to play up front. If that's the case it's a very bad deal.

    It would be impossible to contractually force that I’d think but if he’s on the right while Wzolek, Samuel and Smyth gather dust it’s almost worse. Basically the best thing that could happen is Hemed to injure himself if that’s the case which is a ludicrous situation.

    Agreed. Wells up top with Freeman, Eze and BOS or Pavel in a 3 behind him.

    Very good point. Think it’s been written into a ‘loanees’ agreement many times.
    So maybe it isn’t just McClaren being stubborn and his hands are tied.

    They’re his signings though. You don’t just bring players in with no idea of how the team will play.

    I actually think SM is less popular. Rightly or wrongly he’s thought to have a more talented group to work with.

    Hard to recall who was here and when but I'm not sure that is true.. Someone might be bothered to look it up!

    How close did we get to any player ?
    Very bad that it looked like a training match when you are not allowed to tackle
    It doesn’t matter what formations posters dream up on here something is rotten at the core

    If I saw 35 passes like this I would be shouting at my team after the tenth pass
    After the fifteenth I would go into the pitch and punch a few of my players

    Not acceptable
    Still angry from the weekend
    And to top it all the **** thinks it wasn’t a 3-0 scoreline ... not acceptable

    Worse than Redknapp for me now

    We're in a really bad situation mate, that was unacceptable. Oh, and get rid of that bloody pink kit.

    It's called passive defending, better known as ball watching. They'd clearly given up by then although you might not have noticed any difference...

    I honestly can’t bring myself to watch it.

    There is a strong chance that I will see more live football abroad this season than I will QPR.

    That is utterly appalling...... Bad enough if it was at 0-0 but at 2-0 down.... No pressure, no urgency to regain the ball.. ..

    Horrific shyte
