    Aina doing the presser with Leonid this morning.

    “It is very difficult when you lose the best player (Abel) in your team for six months. I am very disappointed.”

    “I went to his house yesterday to speak with him. I think - and hope - he will be ready to return in February.”

    “Markus Henriksen will also be missing for four-to-six weeks with a foot injury after he got a kick against Wolves on Tuesday.”

    “Life continues though, and we must prepare for our next match with the players that are available.”

    “QPR are a really dangerous team, especially at home, but in the Championship we will never have an easy match.”

    “I think we have a good atmosphere going into the game though. We are focused and ready to play tomorrow.”

    Slutsky also confirmed at the end of his press conference that summer signing Kevin Stewart is available for selection against QPR.

    Leonid Slutsky says he doesn't know if bids are on the table for players and says "we must be more active in the transfer market" - He doesn't know? Kinnel <doh>

    Slutsky also says he doesn't know if the club have accepted an offer from Swansea City for Sam Clucas. He expects him to train today.

    Calls the uncertainty over Sam Clucas a "very difficult situation." Adds "each transfer is the owner's decision."

    “The opening few games have been ok. We’ve played fairly well in all three.”

    “Villa was a tough test and we got a good point and Burton was much better, but I felt like we could have got more from Wolves.”

    “As a team, we are doing well and training well. We’re in a positive frame of mind and we’re building on our confidence.”

    “From the three games, I feel I’ve come in strong and I’ve got the confidence from my team-mates and manager.”

    “I feel like I’m playing well but obviously there's been a few mistakes. I’m just getting used to big boy football - I’m learning!”

    “Every team is tough in this league and we take each game as it comes. We will try our hardest to get a positive result at QPR.”

    “Anything is possible if you show the right desire and will - and we have that in this group.”

    Oh well, Stewart available again has to be a positive.

    Yep now we can sell Sam. Can't stand to see players twiddling their thumbs.

    Couldn't be much clearer how hamstrung he is by the Allams.

    Remember this in mid-October when you're calling for his head people.

    So no new signings for tomorrow another week gone, No Hernandez, Hendrickson and I would imagine doubts if Clucas will play so a few changes needed. Would love us to get something but very much doubt it with all this uncertainty going on at the club. At least Stewart is back and you never know Diomande if he plays might score? Or will we go one up top and three at the back.

    Just seen the video on KCOM TV. Reading the written responses does not convey Slutsky's tone.

    Very downbeat. Not his usual 'chipper' self.

    If I was him and things don't change in next couple of weeks, I'd tell them to shove the job up their arse and walk out

    I would stay.
    he is having to cope with:
    players sold
    replacements not purchased
    young kids having to be drafted in
    more players injured than there are available

    If he does well he is a hero
    if he takes us down he has more than enough excuses

    Top 6 for me<laugh>

    I know what you mean , I just think if he accepts the conditions he is being dealt , then if he loses every game between now and Xmas he can't expect no criticism , even if unfair - if he accepts it he is saying he can work with it , I'd respect him for ****ing off and showing everybody what a twat Ehab is

    Reckon Stewart will be thrown straight in or will it be Larsson and Meyler?

    This 'big boy' football that Aina talks about?

    Somebody should wise up Ehab about big boy stuff - so he stops going down the polo club and boasting: "I'm a big man, me - just sold a player for, would you believe it, £10 million!"

    Kin idiot.

    Well, let's just hope he has a more positive mentality than most people on here - and stays.

    Aye let's hope so. But it doesn't look like it from the video. "Each process is very slow". "We need to do more". "I don't know". "I ask chief scout head of recruitment" . "I ask every day". Have you accepted the bid? "I don't know". "Owner decides transfers".

    I feel for the bloke. He seems a good guy.

    How can anyone believe in our owners?

    I bet he's counting down these last two weeks. New players or not, at least the uncertainty will be gone for him.
