Wish the club the best of luck in getting what we paid for him back. It’s a definite £ loss.

Acres of space and he can’t even get his shot on target. Criminal.

Wright is a decent championship striker/forward but not good enough for a side seeking auto promotion. we shouldn’t expect him to be better than he is.

You would expect a decent championship striker to do better.

Better than today you’re right but overall performances this season I think he’s been at his level.

Don't agree with the booing but you blame booing at the end of a game for the total failure to turn all that possesion into more than a couple of meaningful chances?

Simms started last week - how did that go

My point is that he was in form and he was replaced. Having the odd game here and there is different to having a run of games.

Agree about Simms.

Kone has averaged roughly 1 in 5 for QPR; two of them against us.

But he occupies defences, which Wright does not.

It’s amazing how we can see things differently. I don’t think he’s been anywhere near Championship level this season. I don’t think he would get into any of our rivals first eleven.

You like your stats don't you? Minutes per goal: Wright 180 minutes; Simms 107. Wright 1 assist; Simms 2.

Missed a very easy chance and stood offside for the rest of it.

It frustrates me Haji standing off side at set pieces. Most of his decent chances today were actually flagged off side and therefore not chances to score

It is obviously a tactic so down to Lampard and the coaches as much as Haji Wright,surely?

It's not a tactic to be offside every second ball

Wright was Oxfords best defender today. Cleared one off the line and everything

Charlton forward did it at our place and they scored from it. Still annoys me now.

It is. Lots of teams place players in blatant off side positions at set pieces. It’s where you go from there.

Ah so you agree on the it is a tactic for him being deliberately off side on the first ball.

I'm not on about those. Every time the keeper made a save, game stops because he's offside from the rebound

But it is because he is off side to begin with. It’s a team tactic to place him where we do at the original dead ball. Because Simms does it too and don’t get me started on EMC positioning and running ahead of the ball.

I know, I was at both, and we should have won both. Today, though, Oxford offered nothing and we completely dominated them, without doing the most important thing (sorry for stating the bleeding obvious)!

When Esse hit that bullet volley it wasn't from a set piece.

The reason he's gets so much shit is because it's not a one off. Probably 80% of his performances have been the same. My hope in him to put in any sort of performance is at an all time low.
