Match Day Thread QPR vs West Bromwich Albion

Isn't it weird that even though Marti was having a nightmare we had a song for him,and continually sung it,but JS who I am genuinely excited about zero poetry for him

 

How about a simple, 'Allez, allez Julien' just as a chant?

 

Ref was Gavin Ward. Beyond awful.
Sad to read about Norman. RIP indeed.

 

I think I've told this story before on here, but when I was about 12 or13, I would get driven to games by a neighbour (Mr. Earp) who was a season ticket holder. He'd park up and head off to the Ellerslie Road (and only) stand, whilst I'd head off to the School End. Then there was one game when I waited by his car after the game and he didn't show up. After I'd waited a very long time, I made my way home. I was told by my parents the next morning that he'd died at the game of a heart attack.

 

That's a sad read. RIP.

 

No mate, I think he is on a different level doing the same dirty work that Madsen is meant to do as well. Think people forget they are meant to play in a defensive 2, and there is only Varane that actually does that. Check out two of Norwichs goals, both errors by Madsen because he is so weak defensively

 

The point of the two in front of a back four is not as a defensive two, but that one holds and one can get forward. Norwich is not a great example, but I think Madsen has been one of our better players this season, always looking to get the ball forward.

 

Totally agree cuz.
I'm surprised Yorkshire thinks Madsen does not offer anything defensively, because although I have always thought there was a good player in there which he has shown in abundance this season. I am more surprised by the amount of defensive work he actually puts in game after game.

For me, his ability to read the game is his most impressive attribute, and he does tackle but makes far more interceptions to stop or help break down the play; sometimes it's only a slight touch, but it's effective.

 

You can still predict todays and the midweek matches.....every point counts

 

We need to be savvy, and sell when the time is right at a high price not hold on to him in the vague hope we have a smidge of a sniff at 6th place. He's young, six months in to a contract and on fire so surely would command a hefty fee...

 

Absolutely no to sell in January ...daft for everyone

He stays the season...if he continues like this he will be worth s lot more in summer..

And you never know ...what we might do if we buy a couple of players

 

Not sure where he’d go anyway. Can’t imagine there’s a team both willing to pay a hefty fee and that he’d be that keen to go to at this point. As with any player he has a price should he carry on to be good enough throughout the season but it’s been a remarkable season really considering how recently he was playing at a proper **** level.

 

Anyway we’ll need him in the prem next season
