It’s starting to get nauseating writing this on a more or less weekly basis (although some of that might be down to this winter flu I’ve contracted).
But until something changes, I’m just going to have to keep writing it. Having gone into the Christmas schedule off the back of a couple of decent results, things have gone slightly downhill in the past few games, with the club now going four games without a victory.
Speaking to the club website after the game, Warburton pointed out that the club is essentially failing at the fundamentals when it comes to playing the game:
“We have dominated a game of football from start to finish, we have had chance after chance but then give away two very soft and needless goals. We need to be better, we are better than that but it’s about results and putting the ball in the back of the net and defending your own goal. Today we didn’t do that well enough.”
Well, at least we know that it’s something that can be easily fixed rather than something that could be rather complicated.
However, this just goes back to what I have been saying recently, that there is going to have to come a time where his words will have to be turned into actions. If it really is something that simple that can be fixed, then there really needs to be a marked improvement in the coming weeks to show that the club is taking the steps in the right direction.
It can either come from his coaching methods, something that I have questioned in the past, or it’s going to have to come from a few signings in the upcoming window.
Is Mark Warburton the right man to take QPR into the top flight?
Yes
No
Whatever method he chooses and goes down is fine by me, but if we don’t see an upturn in fortunes in the coming weeks, then you really have to start wondering if he is the right man to take the club forward.
