What a stupid statement! Unlike most of the Harry bashers, my view is more balanced and based on fact. Another fact is no matter who is in charge, whoever is playing for us, I always want us to win, that is all that matters'[/QUOTE] Good. Your posts have been reading to me like your No 1 team is your take on what is " fact", and run Arry's Forum PR machine.
I agree totally, and that's why I'd favour a 4-3-3 over a 3-5-2 formation. This allows the full backs to bomb forward, with the midfielders on the left and right sides covering. It's more effective than our 4-5-1 from last year. It also restricts the space offered in midfield - thus avoiding being overrun as has happened in previous seasons where we've played a more traditional 4-4-2. The key to its success, as ever, rests with the players, their relative aptitude and coaching to reinforce the tactical shifts in play. I fully expect it to break down at time; that happens to the best of clubs - just look at Manchester United's adoption of 3-5-2. We've just got to stick with it and bed it in. Hull City proved the value of such an approach. So there's a little bit of patience from me if this unravels occasionally over the coming weeks.
That's how I saw it. Fer could be a good No 10. He was good yesterday anyway but have heard he is a bit up and down so I would like to see more. I think also he would do well a bit further back behind a 10. But as all positions we need 2 No 10' s. Adel and Fer should be very good but we need another if Adel is going back to Milan or anywhere.
5 wins in 28 premier league games for Harry as QPR Manager now. Lets hope yesterdays performance can be looked back on as a turning point. Still need a striker, a left back and a centre mid by tomorrow. But with the money spent we clearly are on the cusp of being a solid premier league team. Fortunate to be the first QPR manager ever to get to spend proper money on transfers; Fer, Mutch Caulker very big money by our standards but showed their worth yesterday We've thrown enough money at it and there were signs yesterday that eventually quality will start to show through (especially if we stick to a back 4) Looking forward to Old Trafford now
