    Isn't it great to give some of the 2nd choice players a bit of confidence for a change....not that we really have 2nd choice players if you know what I mean

    No more Welsh clubs to play. Back to normal next week.

    Isn't Brentford sort of nearly Wales?

    Absolutely glorious after a shaky first 20 minutes or so.

    Such a joy to watch those attacking midfielders when they click. They got nowhere near Chair all day. The defence didn’t **** about and kept it simple. Kelly made one solid save at 0-0. Hugill’s first, against the run of play, was a cracking finish. All just great.

    Swansea looked every bit a second choice team though. Physically weak and lacking much in the way of leadership to try and steady the ship at 2-0. ****ing Bidwell at centre-half and Little Sideways Tom in the middle.

    MW needs to tell them that we are going to Wales!

    Wowzers! Been out all afternoon and only just seen the result! Eleven goals in two games. Can’t be bad. Warbles out :)

    Despite the opposition, it was the most complete performance from a QPR player I’ve seen since Taarabt.

    Actually, Col, I forgot to mention a thought I had just after the game: Chair was given license to roam, which he would never have if Eze were playing. He was outstounding throughout the whole game.

    I personally think BOS was better in the last league game. But it's great that we can argue over this!!

    So, you don't think Bidwell will make the QPR team of the decade then?

    Stop laughing at the back :emoticon-0140-rofl::emoticon-0140-rofl:

    The older, well-spoken gent I was sat next to today thought he was decent for us.

    Pugh made a great shout for the first team today. Worked his socks off. By the end you could see he needed a bit more game time generally for fitness and stamina.

    The only weak link today, in my opinion, was Kane. He looked better than he was because the rest of the team were on fire. But he didn't really cross that well considering how freed he was by some of the passes. His defensive play was a way in for the Swans. I do think we need a RB there.

    Wallace is really coming into form. I love his runs forward. A bit slow and a bit weak with crosses like Kane. But he was at the heart of so many good moves.

    Scowen needs a mention, too. Regardless of him being a bit wild at times, he's a good leader and has a lot of gaul. I totally believe that was a shot and not a cross. And he did it with certainty.

    It was lovely stuff. I'm trying to find stuff to complain about but there really isn't much.

    I still think he's better than Kane as a full back. His crosses were sometimes beautiful. Launched his body in the way to block shots and crosses. But, like Kane, he's lacking a bit elsewhere as well.

    He assisted with two goals, if he did that every week maybe we could forgive his misgivings!

    Hopefully, if Eze does leave, that will continue.
    Eze certainly blossomed when Freeman left.
    I also think Eze, BOS and Chair link up well together.

    Sorry for being a bit dim, but I don’t get why Scowen didn’t celebrate his goal?

    Hopefully just because the game was done. He played well.
