Max Ehmer
MARK Hughes hopes QPR's crop of talented youngsters can break into the first team this season.
The likes of Michael Doughty, Max Ehmer and Michael Harriman have been training with the senior players all summer and were included on the recent trips to Asia and Germany.
Boss Hughes admits the young guns did better than expected, and hopes they can continue improving into the new campaign.
He said: âTheyâve done really well â thatâs been another bonus.
âWe took them, in fairness, just to expose them to the senior group and see how they dealt with it.
âTheyâve probably played a lot better than I expected, which is a good sign because it shows that they can step up. When theyâve got good players around them they look good players themselves.
âWe want to see young players coming through the ranks because then our fans will have a special affinity to those.
âIâd like to think we can see more of them throughout the season. Theyâre young lads and can supplement the 25, so theyâre certainly there or thereabouts.â
