Well is does because it shows we can compete against good opposition, which is positive for the rest of the season

Frustrating.
We need to work start scoring from Corners or at least make the keeper work

Well they do if they give you encouragement.
We've played a good side today and had the upper hand for parts of 5he game.
That should see us right against aloof sides.

Dabo crossing is so poor, he gets in to great positions but seldom actually makes an assist. Both wing backs the same really

Yeah first half as well TBH mate. Played OK on the break but no real chances. Wingbacks have been beaten by their opposite numbers, midfield nowhere near theirs, defence poor, O’Hare anonymous. Showed we still don’t have the quality against a top ten side in this division.

Except for Gyo laying up Waghorn for a tap in but the latter couldn't adjust his position

One of Walker or Godden needs to play alongside one of Gyo or Waghorn for me

Tired of the argument against walker because he doesn't chase lost causes.

He went into a 50/50 with the Barnsley keeper and popped his shoulder out. He's going to work himself back into it. He doesn't lack guts or desire he's a different type of striker. And doesn't waste his energy for the sake of it like some. Sometimes you need a willing runner but that isn't walker and thank God we don't have 4 of the same player. Walker will be good player for us.

Completely agree we're wasting brilliant corners from Hamer, time after time

Unfortunately a game is 90 mins not 45. We will be fine against most teams, but missed chances with be the difference between a good season and a great season.

I may feel more positive in an hour.

Dabo looked superior to McCallum in my view

I mean we’re all disappointed but it does mean something, it’s better than being toothless all game and creatinf nothing. We need to be more clinical and we will. If we start putting these chances away it will take the pressure off and we will be class to watch I think

Well actually, it does.

It doesn't get us 3 points no. But it gives you an indication as to where the team is at.

Football is just a little bit more than win / lose...

I’d like to see his heat map vs McCallums. Seemed McCallum pinned him back most of the game.

Sounds like a good performance against a team we expect right to be up there end of the season. We knew it would be a challenge especially away from home. People saying it wasnt competitive because we lost 2-0 are being over the top

Subs change games, theirs worked, it was well played by Warburton. That's what managers get paid for.

Lads did well first half.

QPR's quality on the ball shone through second half when we brought off our forwards who were doing a grand job of making the ball stick further up the field.

Defo the best side we have played this season Johanssen, Willock and Dykes all good for them.

How would you rank our strikers from 1-4? Difficult to decide who would be where.

That was early second half wasn’t it? As always I missed the first few mins of the second half so can’t comment. Can’t remember our shots on target first half other than Hamer putting it straight down the keepers throat. Would be curious to see the xG, didn’t feel like we created many clear cut chances other than Fadz sitter that he missed from the corner.

Yep Dykes came on and made a huge different for them. Fair play to Warburton.

I probably would’ve taken Waghorn off for Walker and left gyokeres on. When I saw the starting lineup I thought it was our best 11 but I’d have Walker playing with gyokeres instead of Waghorn as Walker offers something a bit different.

Didn't think QPR were anything but ordinary. We failed to take any of the early chances and then looked a bit tired in the second half. 2-0 a bit flattering for QPR but we lacked something today. It seemed like the sort of game Kelly would have made a difference.
When Sheaf went back and Gyokores off, we lost any momentum we had. Would like to see Gyokores and Godden start a game.

So any game you lose means you don’t compete. I disagree. I’m clearly more positive than you judging by your post when we win games

From listening we sounded like we played well. We don’t have the quality in depth that these teams do. I think people over value how good we are gonna do this year. There’s no shame in losing 2-0 to QPR. Stoke just lost 3-0 to Fulham.
