QPR Issue

mickman

Well..

This is a very tough one , made even tougher due to being hammered at wembley.

Gallas has said during the week that morale is terribly low.

Will we bounce back ? I dont think so unfortunately

2-0 to QPR

mickman

Dont know why i called this thread "Qpr issue " by the way , its still early in the morning :-)

SuprSi

Great thread title! This game is most certainly an issue

I have a problem with the morale thing. Here we have two teams facing similar issues towards the end of the season. QPR are dangling by a thread over relegation, fighting for their lives to secure a second season in the Premiership. Spurs are dangling by a thread over 5th spot and missing out on a place in the CL qualifiers next season.

If morale is low, the managing/coaching staff and players need a kick in the arse. 4th spot is in their hands and they should be playing like every game from now on will save them from CL relegation (5th spot). Do you think QPR will just give up on staying in the PL? Of course they won't. They may not have the talent or squad to do so and they may miss out in the end because it's not fully in their hands, but they'll try as hard as they possibly can. Can we say the same about the Spurs players?

The difference is there's so much less to lose for Spurs. QPR may end up back in the Championship, with lower wages and a very difficult season on the horizon. The Spurs players know they'll still be in the PL, earning their massive wages - some will even earn higher wages with another team. Yes they'd all like to be playing in the CL again but do they want that as much as the QPR players want to stay in the PL? Probably not.

I think Spurs will be out-fought, out-worked and out-motivated tomorrow, purely because QPR need this result more than Spurs do.

I really hope I'm wrong, but I think QPR will come out flying, score early and the game and season will be over.

Kaboul out tomorrow

"Manager Harry Redknapp says he has "four or five" injury concerns but refused to reveal which other players are doubts."

This sounds weird, its like harry is going to drop some players after last weekend and is telling the press its injuries

Gallas has to be dropped - nelson is old but at least he will give 100%

Does gallas not give 100%? If there was an award for negativity on this forum you would win it!
2-1 spurs.

Obviously you missed the FA cup semi final and all the comments on this forum and on ITV about his performance last week

I'd start Defoe, he has pace to trouble there back four and shoot on sight policy.

Having been at Wembley last Sunday I just don't know what to expect tomorrow evening. Maybe dropping a couple of the bigger names will be a good thing and give them a kick up the backside which they need. Anyone think that a 4-3-3 of sorts could work?

Brad
Walker Nelsen King/Gallas BAE
Sandro Parker VdV
Lennon Ade/Defoe Bale

I know it would be controversial dropping/resting Modric but I am only throwing it out there.

Sugarlumps

I’d definitely give Nelson a run, he’d give it his all and outmatches King/Gallas for pace.

i'd agree with that team only i'd stick in livermore for vdv,we need to be strong in midfield cos with the form we're in it's likely that QPR will fancy their chances and come at us from the start,hopefully we can use the pace of lennon and bale to pick them off in the counter attack.
i'm hopefull of a win but i expect us to draw 1-1

Sugarlumps

Defoe starts by default. Nelson ankle injury!

KingdomYid

I am so bloody nervous about this game, most nervous I have been in a long time.

keane=cock

Tottenham: Friedel, Walker, Gallas, King, Assou-Ekotto, Sandro, Modric, Parker, Bale, Van der Vaart, Defoe

keane=cock

personally disappointed that gallas is playing. honestly dont think he deserves the jersey

BERBA

lennon should be playing, we need to go for it not be conservative.

keane=cock

Saha missed last week with a groin strain anyways, according to FB and Twitter Ade is also injured, can't find how he's injured though.

tippspur

The Arsenal/Chelsea result should give insentive to the players to win it.

we are falling apart at the back WTF friedel nearly cost us again:mad:

80% possession and we still cant defend:o

galwayjohn89

Is it just me or is Friedel having a shocker? Putting king under pressure, poor keeping for the goal and twice put our defense on pressure trying to use the ball too quickly.
