If all fit it should be this team
Begovic
Bardsley Shawcross Wollscheid Wilson
Whelan Nzonzi
Arnautovic Walters Moses
Crouch
But he may sacrifice Arnie for Walters and bring in Ireland.

Begovic Cameron Shawcross Wollscheid Muniesa N'Zonzi Whelan Arnautovic Ireland Moses Walters Subs Butland, Wilson, Bardsley, Adam, Sidwell, Crouch, Diouf Got to say that is my ideal team with players currently available.

My worries for this game are by the law of averages they must get something away sometime,also Austin's pace worries me too but lets hope we can put the smiles back on our fans faces this weekend.

Is the suggestion for the inclusion of Diouf simply optimism or is it known that he is already back, fit and rarin' to go?
Think I'd start him on the bench.

Is Cameron playing in Chile tonight? If so I'm guessing he won't be back until Friday in which case Bardsley should play

This match could go the way of the home matches against Villa and Leicester, with us struggling to break them down without an in form Bojan and getting hit on the break by them. Ireland hasn't been successful against organized defences. The Bojan lesson for me is not to risk any suspect fit/tired players and incur more injuries, so that rules out N'Zonzi and Diouf starting. Assuming they sit back and defend that will not give Moses much chance to run at them, so I'd hold him back and bring him on when they are tiring. I think we need Adam and Arni using their skills to find an opening hitting balls to Crouchy and Walters. I'd go with our best attacking full backs. That makes us more vulnerable to their attacks but I have faith in Shawcross and Wollscheid. So:
Begovic
Cameron Shawcross Wollscheid Muniesa
Sidwell Whelan
Arnautovic Adam Walters
Crouch
Subs.: Butland, Wilson, Bardsley, Ireland, N'Zonzi, Moses, Diouf

So: Begovic Cameron Shawcross Wollscheid Muniesa Sidwell Whelan Arnautovic Adam Walters Crouch Subs.: Butland, Wilson, Bardsley, Ireland, N'Zonzi, Moses, Diouf You're absolutely correct regarding the choice between Adam and Ireland. I'd go with Adam if the opposition is more than likely to be in a park the bus mode but against more open midfield/defensive teams I'd go with Ireland. Just not sure QPR are likely to be in park the bus mode this time round as they need the points. I'd have to disagree with Moses and Nzonzi missing out though

Unfortuantly JW loses out for this reason only otherwise I'd continue playing him as he as been sound for most of this season. If Diouf is not up to it this weekend I would have no problems with JW playing up front.

You would play Wilson at left back after a bit of another average performance last night? And drop big Phil? Wow Ditto It has to be Bego Bards Ryan Big Phil Muni Arnie Nzonzi Glenn Moses Ireland Walters/Diouf

I'm staggered by anybody who would look to drop both Moses and N'Zonzi from our team on what they deem as tactical grounds.

If Diouf is not up to it this weekend I would have no problems with JW playing up front. Only Diouf and Moses are lightning. It'd be interesting to see how much quicker Arnie is than Walters, I think that'd be a close race! Given the form this season then Walters would start ahead of Arnie on the right. Diouf has been poor up front by himself this season. Having lost some of the guile to maybe play him behind a defence then I can't see that improving. Again Walters would get the nod there for me. Personally our front four must include Moses and Walters and the other two spots can be argued over. I'd probably play Diouf on the right if he's fit if not Arnie plays with Walters leading the line

I think it could go one of two ways.
1.Everyone rallies together following the news about the little man, we come out of the blocks brilliantly, get an early goal and QPR once again roll over and we win 2/3-0.
2.Everyone is feeling deflated, we start poorly, concede early (perhaps from a set piece) and spend the rest of the game trying to break them down unsuccessfully and QPR finally get an away result.
