http://www.whoscored.com/Players/2703/Show/Shaun-Wright-Phillips Go down the page and see his characteristics. I think he's the only player that has more weaknesses than strengths. As a matter a fact he has no strengths not even work rate and defensive contribution everybody's talking about . How can everybody on the planet see it but not Hughes?
He has had more than enough chances already. Mackie is a much better option, although I would like to see a midfield three of Adel / Jnr / Granero
I would like those 3 myself. I feel that Granero should be able to go into attack without worrying about covering defense. We've seen his great pass to Adel, his goal, and against Everton he made some nice runs down the channels. Yes he missed good chance but next time he'll score. I just think with 4-4-2 we're holding down his attacking potential, and Hoilett could do much more on the wing than as a striker. Hughes just doesn't chose formation to suit player's strengths.
Other than his inability to hold on to the ball and his crossing, passing and finishing being weak I can't see what the problem is........anyone got MH's email address???
About 4 years ago your team would have been amazing..... I think Hughes hasn't moved on since then really.
Hughes persitance with SWP is for me one of the main reasons he deserves to be sacked. Was clear to me and everone around me in the ground that SWP visibly lost his head and all his confidence during a 15 minute spell when he kept giving the ball away. The guy has no ability and added to that zero confidence. I never want to see him in a Rangers shirt again. Hughes is like a manager in a Sunday league team who keeps picking his son even though he's clearly got no ability and is hindering the team. Can't understand how Hughes can keep picking a right mid who you know definitely will not score or produce an assist
SWP does a job ... at Arsenal I thought our worse player was Hoilett on the day but guess what the next game wipes all that clear
I will bite because your consistently missing the point. SWP must actually be some sort of genius. He has managed to convince a sizeable chunk of QPR fans that for the 50-60 grand a week he earns as QPR's right midfielder he does not have to worry about the traditional things a right mid needs to do like make a difference in the final third of the pitch. Perhaps because he's small and plays football like a drunk toddler he garners sympathy and therefore people like yourself think its okay that he does nothing but track the left backs runs
Exactly!! @Secret ranger Please do explain your question, you know the formation that everybody on this forum wants to be fielded.
