BTW, what's the issue with Koki? Really like the guy and want him to succeed. Still not fully fit perhaps? But couldn't trap a bag of cement today (albeit a lot of the passes into him were not great). And just seemed low energy. Have been critical of Vale but he actually did quite a bit better first half before fading completely after the break. This tricky winger/ number 10 position was meant to be where we had our embarrassment of riches but not a single one is in form. Only positive is that Chair is back and maybe he will shove Smyth out wide next time because - as someone said in the match thread - the experiment of him up top has more than run its course, he has been blunted the last two games playing there. |

Good defensively. Decent carrying the ball out of defence. But would like to have seen him run to the by-line or delver a cross. Seemed to get high up the pitch then develop a bit of a nose-bleed. Like a slightly smoother RND. But he has a good track record, very early days. And in fairness he probably did more going forwards than Adamson. |

Wish I shared your positivity. We had a lot of the ball in the first half because Burnley didn't really want it. We could get three quarters of the way up the pitch unchallenged. But once we got there we were pretty clueless. it's not coincidental or a one off that we can't break down a team when we dominate possession. All those midget wingers and supposedly clever full backs. Did one QPR player get to the byline and get a cross in once in 94 minutes? If so I don't remember it. |

Smash and grab to some extent but we haven’t been that dominant. Nobody willing to put a cross in, always a safe ball back. Smyth and Saito both been v poor and Kone had no service. |

We would need to win with way more than 50% possession… This game shows why we can’t do that. When a team sits deep against us we are v static and don’t have anyone with the skill to unlock a defence. |
