FT: QUEENS PARK RANGERS 0 - 0 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread

[Hilts]

Need the Jacks to do us a big favour today.

I'd rather Derby win and we win.

We have to win. Id rather be 1 behind Derby and 2 behind Swansea.

[goats]

We will be 18th and 2 points behind both swansea and qpr by 5pm today. And we will overtake both mid week.

Have good vibes.......

That drunk by lunchtime ffs….

Yeah the run derby on they should escape comfortably.

I've got a bad feeling they will lose today and pick up their run again though. The worst of all worlds.

[the other bob wilson]

Only eight subs.

[Sparticus_Mills]

I can't fault the team he's picked, just hope we score more than one goal.

[City123]

Well, we're going for it

[City123]

Guessing someone went down in the warmup? Possibly Chambers?

[Undercoverinwurzelland]

Well, we're going for it

Yes, definitely looks an attacking lineup

[City123]

Luton 1 - 0 Leeds

Some heavy challenges going in, Leeds getting the better of them at the minute

Solomon has to score

[jon1959]

Well, we're going for it

Is that 4 - 1 - 4 - 1 ?

A lot of work for Mannsverk, and a lot of pressure on Rino and Bagan.

Certainly brave.

[Father Dougal]

That's very attacking.

[Dave Blue]

Yes, definitely looks an attacking lineup

That team looks a bit kamekazi. It’s either a master stroke or a 0-5 defeat.

[City123]

Is that 4 - 1 - 4 - 1 ?

A lot of work for Mannsverk, and a lot of pressure on Rino and Bagan.

Certainly brave.

I reckon Colwill in midfield, as he was at Villa

Pure guesswork, but I doubt this was the original plan

Yes, that’s what I was thinking.

Certainly brave.

Colwill will play deeper like he did at villa?

[Hilts]

Colwill instead of Chambers has to be a huge positive.

[Wash DC Blue]

Midfield looks weak to me.
I would have started Turnbull or Tobertson over Colwill,

High risk but hopefully high reward.

[Rjk]

Midfield looks weak to me.
I would have started Turnbull or Tobertson over Colwill,

Tolwill and Tannswerk might be a good combination

[Bobby Dandruff]

Midfield looks weak to me.
I would have started Turnbull or Tobertson over Colwill,

Is Robertson injured as he’d be in my starting XI every time?

(I can’t say that about Turnbull though)

[Hilts]

Midfield looks weak to me.
I would have started Turnbull or Tobertson over Colwill,

Physically our defence and midfield is weak and I dont think there's much we can do about that.

Turnbull or Robertson wouldn't change that.

[Former Labour leader]

Come on you bluebirds!

[A Quiet Monkfish]

High risk but hopefully high reward.

Apart from the obvious, my only thought going into this game was I'd rather see us shut up shop, crowd midfield for the 1st 45 and then take it from there. We honestly don't have the resilience or discipline to hold on to an early/1st half lead..

[Hilts]

We have to take chances I dont think we are capable of clean sheets.

I'm not convinced any game approach based on defence is sensible.

Riza seems to have hardened his distrust of Goutas and Daland - leaving only one starting defender in his natural position.

Attack, attack, attack.... and hope for the best!
