    I had to turn off cookies otherwise I just got a login popup. I'm not at home so can't send any links.

    Try looking at old game threads to find something.

    I thought our organisation and pressing was good, but need to cut out the turnovers. Barnes makes a big difference.

    Yeah how bad is this match? Hernandez finally replaced. How does he warrant a starting place these days? Four years with no Carra goal.

    Does this team want to play with any desire? Sloppy, mistake ridden match in which QPR dominated possession. Can’t see us getting anything at Watford.
    How long do we give him?

    I saw loads of desire and fight out there and Barnes made a big difference. Yes, it was a scrappy game for both sides but the battling spirit was also there for both sides. Hwang's goal and Sara's assist and excellent all round play were the difference between the sides, but the defence and our defending in general was much improved with a clean sheet at last. The mistakes were frustrating but QPR had their share as well. To not play well and still win is a credit to the players' concentration and commitment. The win takes us up to 12th place, four points below the top 6 and 11 points clear of relegation. Watford away will be tough, but their goalkeeper was sent off at their 2-0 loss at Leicester today.

    In contrast to Rick, I saw nothing to be positive about; we scraped a win against the second to bottom team in the league, who out-performed us on the majority of metrics and who could and should have scored in injury time to deservedly draw the game. Awful.

    Yes, 5 shots, none on target. Is their surge slowing? They've taken 5 points in their last 4 games. We've taken 6 from our last 4.

    True, but it would be lower had Rowe, Núñez and Idah started and Sainz brought it down further when he came on. There is a mix of ages but given that 26-28 is usually considered a player's prime there's a balance to be had. Barnes did well to play the whole match after being out so long and his all action style inspired others.
