Team Analysis – Assessing Ramsey’s QPR

After taking time out to assess Tim Sherwood’s impact at Villa Park, we analyse the performances of QPR under Chris Ramsey as both clubs prepare for a double Gameweek 31. In terms of results, the new man in charge has been unable to arrest his side’s decline – aside from a win at fellow strugglers Sunderland, the R’s have lost six of seven fixtures since the departure of Harry Redknapp.

Although they’ve failed to score in just one of those encounters, the Loftus Road outfit have notched more than a single goal in only one match since Ramsey was installed – that victory over the Black Cats. In terms of defensive prospects, QPR have one clean sheet (yet again courtesy of the Sunderland match) and have conceded at least twice in each of the last five matches of Ramsey’s tenure.

With trips to West Brom and Villa on the horizon, then, we delve into the data to see whether the underlying numbers can afford a little more optimism.

    What's a better move?

    A) Sanchez > silva
    B) caz > mata
    C) Sanchez > mata
    D) none of the above

    Have 2FT. Have to use at least 1. Also still have my WC

    Fabianski. Hamer
    Terry. Clyne. Bertrand. PvA. Hutton
    Sanchez. Haz. Cazorla. Eriksen. Boyd
    Aguero Kane. Austin.

    0.4 in bank

      A

    3. Jafalad

      A. Silva should have been in your team months ago tbh. 😕

    4. Beavis

    9 years, 22 days ago

    Next week am planning to do
    Sanchez > Siggy & Austin > Costa (if fit)
    Is it worth doing Sanchez> Siggy THIS GW ?

    1. super zlatan
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      I'm reluctant to sell Sanchez this wee. he could spank the pool.

      Maybe hold fire until next week?

      1. _Gunner
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Yes am leaning towards keeping for this week 😀

    2. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      I agree with getting rid of Sanchez but why Siggy? You can have Silva, Haz, Caz, Mame et al long before Sig.

      😕

      1. _Gunner
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        I have Silva and Hazard, Can't afford Cazorla if am willing to do Austin> Costa next week
        Mane is a good shout also, but am leaning towards Sig because of the easy fixtures ahead

  3. English

    Ospina - Panti
    PVA - Terry - Clyne - Dawson - Vertonghen
    Hazard - Silva- Sanchez- Moses- Boyd
    Aguero - Giroud - Kane

    Got 2 FT.

    I want Austin/Benteke in for this week swapping back out for Costa after. But Giroud/Kane are undroppable at the moment, so Aguero to Austin or Benteke?

    Or is there another transfer that is better (carrying some dead wood.. Moses, PVA, Vertonghen.. need a keeper for the blank..) onky 0.3 ITB

    1. super zlatan
      • 13 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Moses > sinclair

      Save the other trade.

      1. English
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Scott Sinclair hasn't done much yet though has he? Obviously he has the double, but one is away at Old Trafford..?

    2. Jafalad
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      I'm thinking of booting Gru but the natives on here gave plenty of heat last night for even sugegsting such a thing.

      😕

      1. RiflaFC
        • 10 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        You should do what you think is best, and not base everything on what people on this site thinks 😉

        1. Jafalad
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          I don't.

          That is the problem.

      2. English
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        I'd rather drop Aguero to be honest, Giroud has been banging them in!

        1. Jafalad
          • 14 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          Kak fixtures and blank though. 🙁

          1. English
            • 9 Years
            9 years, 22 days ago

            Liverpool at home then Burnley is good for the short term though

        most in form striker in the league, i'd definitely transfer him out 🙂

  4. davies
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    If you were to make a worlds greatest XI, would these be in it?

    A) Messi
    B) Ronaldo

    1. davies
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Of all time.

    2. Beavis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Both of them yes.

      1. davies
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Of all time?

        1. Beavis
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 12 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          Yes imo. I've not been alive long enough to give a definitive answer but the fact that they're scoring 60 goals per season in a much more competitive/difficult era should be enough imo.

          1. Doolittle
            • 11 Years
            9 years, 22 days ago

            Difficult to say whether it's more difficult; Maradona was kicked from pillar to post, and Pele was playing with rougher defenders as well (and without the technology and advancement in equipment).

            On pure goalscoring, you'd probably put Gerd Muller in (or, as an Evertonian, Dixie Dean!)

            1. Beavis
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 12 Years
              9 years, 22 days ago

              I think the understanding of football especially on a tactics level as well as sports as a science means it has become much more difficult. I could be wrong of course and it's not something we will ever truly know but that's just my interpretation of it.

              1. Doolittle
                • 11 Years
                9 years, 22 days ago

                I'd tend to agree, hard to say when you aren't 100 years old! What I do know is that I feel privileged to be alive with Messi at his peak, and I'm not sure I'll ever see a player that good again.

                1. Beavis
                  • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                  • 12 Years
                  9 years, 22 days ago

                  Totally agree.

    3. Doolittle
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      It's hard to say, as I've only been alive since 1991, so while I can presume Maradona and Pele would be in there, I don't have the first hand evidence for it. Messi would surely be in there, best player in my life by a huge distance, but from what I know surely Pele, Maradona and Messi would be front 3.

      Also know that Garrincha, Cruyff, Jairzinho, Zico, Platini, Best et al would be up there. And personally, while Ronaldo has done it more consistently and probably more effectively, I have always much much preferred Ronaldinho.

      1. Doolittle
        • 11 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        And my Grandad swears that the greatest player he ever saw was Eusebio.

        1. Dr Dream
          • 11 Years
          9 years, 22 days ago

          Eusebio was unfortunate to play at the same time as Pele...He is definitely the most under rated player of all time by modern day commentators..

    4. Syd.
      • 14 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Messi yes

      Ronaldo possibly

    5. JoeJitzu +42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Yes to A, No to B

      Pele Messi Maradona for me, all three brilliant individual players, all very much team players.
      Ronaldo plays for himself making it very difficult to call him great!

  5. JPlicious
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Good to go with this starting 11?
    Or should I bring Mane/vAa in?

    Panti (Mannone)
    Hutton - Clyne - Bertie - Terry (vAanholt)
    Hazard - Silva - Cazorla (Mane - Boyd)
    Kane - Aguero - Austin

    1. JPlicious
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Hutton -> Mane maybe?

  6. Flynny
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    H. all..any advice on this lot please.....shall I do Sanchez to Eriksson, meaning I can do Austin to Costa next week?
    Myhill. Panty.
    Terry. Bertrand. Naughton. Bellerin. Bruce.
    hazard. Silva. Mane. Sanchez. Boyd.
    Kane kun Austin (c)

  7. davies
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Messi GOAT, imo.

  8. C-Dawgg
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    If Sturridge is out is Sterling going back up top?

    1. La Roja
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      I would've though so.

      I don't see BR risking with mental Balo. Maybe Borini, but I expect Sterling up top since he is not happy to play wing back which could impact his contract with Liverpool.

    2. Flynny
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Guess so.....although sterling seems to be in a mood with pool so small chance Rogers will go with balo....

    3. Beavis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Yes imo

    4. C-Dawgg
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Good stuff, doubt I'll bring him anyway but might be worth keeping an eye on.

    Got some BBC R1 Big Weekend tickets!
    Only for the Saturday though 🙁

  10. Who Ate All Depays?
    • 10 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Panti
    Clyne / Ivan / Pva
    Haz / Sanchez / Eriksen / Silva
    Kane / Kun / Austin
    (Krul / Walters / Bruce / Wasi)

    2 FT & 0.2m itb...what do you think of the following moves?
    This week (gw 31): Wasi/Pva & Walters -> Naughton & Cork
    Next week (gw 32): Sanchez & Austin -> Mane & Costa (-4)

    1. JoeJitzu +42
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      I'm planning kind of similar moves but thinking of bringing in west brom defender (3 great fixtures) and Philips (DGW) and then leave him rot on bench till end!

      Then doing the Sanchez/Austin moves to Mane/Siggy and Costa

  11. how now brown cow
    • 9 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Panti (krul)
    Clyne Terry Naughton (bruce dawson)
    Haz Sanchez Silva Eriksen (boyd)
    Aguero Kane giroud

    2ft 0.3 in bank

    will wait for pressers, but really unsure where to focus this week. maybe myhill for 1keeper?

    Anything more pressing?

    Not sure villa or qpr are worth it.

  12. La Roja
    • 12 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    So who is everyone captaining here?

    I am on Kun strangely

    1. Efan Ekoku Pops
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      With his form it's a bit of a punt. I'm going to go with Austin because it would be a boring DGW otherwise... Cue a massive 4 points 😎

      1. how now brown cow
        • 9 Years
        9 years, 22 days ago

        Will keep it interesting. Nothing more boring than all players finished while games still on

    2. how now brown cow
      • 9 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Hazard, probably

    3. Doolittle
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Austin.

    4. TuttiFrutti
      • 11 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Austin atm

    5. Beavis
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      Austin but considering Kane.

    6. money face bandwagon
      • 10 Years
      9 years, 22 days ago

      benteke

  13. Kings of Lyon ★
    • 13 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Play Krul (sun) or take a hit to do Foster to Myhill?

  14. Bollemuza
    • 11 Years
    9 years, 22 days ago

    Should I just leave the whole thing and save? Not moving up or down the ranks with this team,
    so a differential or two would be fun. 1FT, 1,3 ITB

    K. Davies - Krul
    Terry-Bert-Kompany-Hutton-C.Dawson
    Boyd-Haz-Mane-Eriksen-Sanchez
    Kane-Giroud-Kun

  15. New post
  16. shirtless

    Guys would you use a transfer for Eriksen>Fellaini this week, given their fixtures, or save for 2 FT's next week? I don't think double Spurs is needed with Kane in the team, but would like some Utd cover going forward...

    Trouble is the GW33 blank when Sterling may or may not be playing, of which we find out the solution next week which kind of makes me think I should hold, but fancy Fellaini to do damage against Villa and it frees up £2.3m for the bank!

    DDG
    Bertrand Kos Naughton (PvA Was)
    Sanchez Sterling Eriksen Mane (Boyd)
    Aguero Costa Kane

    GW31 Erik>Afro??
    GW32 Was>Schlupp (gains a GW33 starter and a DGW player)
    GW33 Sanchez>Haz (gets 11 out plus double Chelsea ready for DGW34 - bench Sterling Kos PvA)

    Plan?!
