One win in last 7 too so I’ve heard
They are like a wounded animal
Bamford will relish this tie and they pass and move the ball real good too,if it wasn’t on sky we’d win but we won’t as it’s on sky

3 changes and they all should have played last week...

Kelly in for Lumley
Wallace in for Manning
Masterson in for Ball (Cameron in to midfield)

Warburton showing he got it wrong last week but hopefully it is right today!

Hugill not on the bench. Clarke is.

Lumley not in the squad either, Barnes preferred on the bench.

Leistner makes the bench which shows nice faith in Masterson.

What can you say, other than that the club should be renamed 'Queens Park Rollercoasters' as this was the exact opposite performance! A lot may have to do with a better starting XI and Kelly's superb penalty save, but this was a hard-fought game where the two teams went 'toe-to-toe' (look at the number of fouls and cards). The substitutions made sense too. Well done all Mr Warburton and the squad!

Temporarily probably but we move up to 13th on 38 points. Much better weekend looms - especially if Brentford lose!

P.S. We kept a rare clean sheet and it was against a side expected to fill an automatic promotion slot!!

And so it proves! Brentford was a poor team selection but to get 3 points from the 2 games is very good.

Masterson is a future star. He will only get better.

Kelly is a lot more confident than Lumley.

A really enjoyable match and I felt we deserved the win.

It was one of the few times this season where I thought Warburton had picked a balanced team and we certainly looked more composed. In fact despite Leeds dominating possession I didn't think they were ever really threatening apart from set pieces.

Even the penalty looked a soft decision with Kelly making minimum contact on Bamford.

The challenge (assault) by the Leeds player who got sent off was awful and Cameron was lucky he didn't end up with a very serious injury. It came at a time when Leeds were getting more and more frustrated.

Lots of players did very well today but Masterson was outstanding at the back. Yes he lost Bamford who turned him a bit easily when he chipped over the bar in the first half but he will learn from that. You would think he would be the first name on the team sheet for Friday's FA Cup game but Warburton might want to save him for the Blackburn game.

Well Blackburn put FIVE past a dazed Sheffield Wednesday (who had Mass Luongo get a straight red card for a foul on Travis in the 23rd minute), so the topsy turvey Championship continues. This makes our game against Blackburn that more unpredictable, as both sides can score freely and it seems Blackburn can defend as well....

Blackburn's win was very impressive especially as they were without Bradley Dack and playing a really decent team in Sheffield Wednesday.

Post Leeds Stats:

The win against Leeds moves us up 1 place to 14th

It is the same position we were in after 28 games last season although last season we were one point better off (39 to 38)

The 1-0 win gave us just out 3rd clear sheet of the season and was the first clean sheet for Liam Kelly in goal who was making his first league appearance after missing the last 12 league games

We are 14 points clear of the bottom 3 but frustratingly still 6 away from Forest in 6th. That gap is likely to be at least 7 points (to Swansea) once Forest play their 2 games in hand

We have won the last 3 games at Loftus Road against Leeds

Nahki Wells has scored 5 goals in his last 3 games

Conor Masterson made his first league start for QPR. We have not conceded in the league since he came on as a half time sub against Brentford last week.

Jack Clarke made his QPR debut coming on as a sub

Jordan Hugill and Ryan Manning both failed to appear for just the 2nd time this season

We had conceded 6 so far this season.

Sheffield Wednesday hit one over the bar on the last day of last season so that was missed but not 'saved'.

Not sure when we last actually saved one. Probably Smithies!

Smithies was my candidate too, and that was a long, long time ago!
