We can't do that every week because sadly we don't play QPR every week. I like QPR, I like Tony Fernandes but Hughes and Joorabchian have destroyed the club with their signings. Too many average players on fat wages who don't give a fuck. The only ones who do are the more limited players like Hill, Derry and Mackie who earn a pittance compared to some of the Hughes (and indeed Warnock, in the case of SWP) signings.
Redknapp has understood this to an extent, although SWP getting picked over Hoilett is baffling. But let's be honest, they were inept and so all we needed to do was kill them off quickly and then coast. In that respect job done. We have a big game on Wednesday, and conserved energy in the second half - I don't really understand what we gained however by leaving Suarez and Gerrard on for 90 minutes, Gerrard in particular. Perfect opportunity to give him a rest for 45 minutes. As for Suarez, well QPR played the second half with no striker after Cisse was hooked, perhaps we should have followed suit and had none on the pitch
Suarez first was just sheer class. Clint Hill is the identikit perfect defender for him, it was a foregone conclusion as soon as he got one on one with him, but still, what skill. Poor defending to allow Danny the time and space to pick his spot - it reminded me hugely of a goal that end last season when we allowed Djib to do the same.
Difficult to say how good we were but I was delighted with Henderson in particular, Johnson and of course Suarez. The rest were good bar Raheem who had a poor game back at Loftus Road. Not concerned though, he's a kid, probably tried too hard and Onuoha was one of QPR's better players on the day, shackling him well. Downing...was fine but I was disappointed, if there was ever a game he could have taken by the scruff of the neck (like he did against Fulham) it was this one. He appeared content to stay in the shadows however, bar one superb strike which was blocked.
