QPR's starting eleven last night had more PL experience (2,203 games) than 18 of the 20 Premier League sides this weekend. And still we're woeful.

Experience usually works better when complemented with a mixture of precocious youth. Something that quick fix 'Arry never understood.
Sick of hearing this crup. If a player is playing in the Championship then he's Championship quality, particularly if he's been transferred on a permanent basis.
Yeah but it indicates the pedigree of our team. And the fact they're not up to the rigours of the Championship
No, we just have a bunch of over the hill players not up to the fight. There's a few exceptions like hill. There isn't a 30something I'd want back after this summer, theres a mixture of decent players that time has caught up with (hill, Dunne), some that are just **** (AJ, zamora,O'Neill, henry) and some that just don't give a ****. (Benayoun, BAE, kranjcar)
All of out good players are young (Austin, Philips, Onuoha) with the exception of Barton but he's not worth 60k a week either.
But you say despite our experience we're still woeful which implies you expect more from them.
What our starting line-up demonstrated was that we've got too many players in the first-team with nothing left to achieve.
I read from many people that we are in the fight for automatic promotion despite us not having played well this season.
I look at our players & have reached the conclusion that this is wrong. We have played as well as our management & playing staff are capable of.
Hansen was wrong when he said you won't win anything with youngsters. He should have said that you won't win anything with a side full of older players that are all past their best.
