Gyokeres hasn’t scored since what early October and doesn’t look close to scoring again. At a guess since the Fulham game I’d say the team put out today has about 8 goals between them and most of them from defenders

The thing is even when he was scoring he had this weird style where he never really looked in control of the ball

he’s very unorthodox. Strong as an ox and has the mental capacity to have good movement but not got the technical ability to control it

This is why they have won, despite our 21 shots to their 8.

Gifted the goals without having to do much really. Godden available today and we win imo

So you’d rather play attractive football and lose - weird. Personally I’d always prefer the team to win no matter what.

Couldn’t tell for sure, I was watching on my phone, but it looked blatantly like Sheaf was getting held for their first goal. Anyone confirm that?

Go back 2 seasons and we would have been incapable of producing a performance like this. We are improving incrementally. Frustrating after a loss, but we battered them, and a few were expecting them to batter us, They didn't. Important summer ahead.

Fairly typical QPR quote:

We rode our luck, certainly, but that was a great win. The fact that theirs was a stunner shows that we held out well. Like the game at the KPF, we were clinical, they weren't. Great finish by Gray to start things off, which is good because that was about all that he and Dykes did between them today, but it is THE most vital part of the game, so we'll take that!

Nothing Marshall could do about their goal.

Thought that they looked a pretty good outfit to be fair. The high energy press certainly disrupted us and we went long ball too much, which really exposed the lack of hold up play of the front two. But that said, there weren't that many clear cut chances that fell their way.

I’m with Grendel I think they deserved it. Can point to stats all you want but they went ahead after 5 mins and didn’t need to force the game. Once we equalised they stepped up and had the quality when it mattered. I felt they did to us what we have done to hull and blackpool

Don’t think they did at all, daylight robbery pure and simple

To state the obvious the difference was at the sharp of the pitch. You wouldn't back Allen or O'Hare to score a goal a piece between now and the end of the season.

Imo if we were in midtable fighting for nothing , good football would be the priority but if we were in a relegation scrap or promotion battle , results come first

Fair enough you can say they deserved it, they took their chances well.

To suggest they "stepped up" though?!

They did however have the quality to finish their chances. I'd like us to continue doing what we do, but also have that please!

Pisses me off the most is top 6 is really there for the taking with just a bit more quality. It hurts seeing it chucked away like this regardless of initial expectations.
