So the blades are our next visitors during the week.
They will be hoping to show us some Sheffield steel.
By plunging a knife in our recent revival.
OLLIE needs the team to step up yet again.
Another 3 points would be great.

I have no doubt we will be up for this and going in with confidence. Could be a great game under the lights at Loftus Road.

Who replaces Lynch? A shame we can't name the same 11.

Will Caulker come in or Furlong?

Will Smith start ahead of Sylla?

I imagine Cousins will also drop to the bench.

A good question re how they will line up in defence. Caulker is not match-fit, having only played in a U23s game recently. I guess a lot depends upon how Ollie wants to set up against Sheffield Utd - Back 3 or back 4? Could well be Furlong/Baptiste/Robinson/Bidwell or even Baptiste/Cousins/Robinson/Bidwell for a Back 4; and Baptiste/Robinson/Bidwell for a Back 3 with Furlong as RWB and Kakay as LWB, or Baptiste/Robinson/Hamalainen for the Back 3 and Furlong (RWB) & Bidwell (LWB)?
With regard to the attack, I favour bringing on Smith as a super-sub (stats prove his worth there) and starting with Sylla & Washington again. For what it is worth I would also not include Pavel Wzsolek, as he seems to have lost his mojo, and consider instead of Furlong at RWB either Shodipo or Wheeler. Either would stretch the Blades across the pitch in terms of marking and add another dimension to counter the knowledge they must have gained form watching us on Saturday.

He stated when he join again with words to the effect. I made his dad I will make him.

Agree kingfisher that Smith is still better coming off the bench but I have a feeling he may start. It could work as I read a preview elsewhere that suggests the one weakness in the Sheffield United team is that their defence can be bullied.

Also agree I would give Wszolek a further rest. He needs to add a bit more creativity and goals to his game to become a regular pick for me.

Surely Wheeler is worth another look? He scored on his 1 start to date and has been a bit unlucky in my eyes to only have fleeting appearances since.

OK, here is my guess at the squad (what's yours?)!

........Smithies
..Baptiste Robinson Bidwell
Wheeler... Scowen ....Manning
....Freeman ...Luongo
...Sylla.....Washington

Well it is now 10 mins to kick-off and my team selection was nearly right! Only incorrect selection was Cousins for Manning, so perhaps better at predicting the players than the results!!

COYRs let's make sure Sheffield United have a hard time and perhaps see red!!!

4m and mess up at back as defender pushes Sylla away from goal but collides with the goalie, allowing a bemused Sylla to discover the ball at his feet with the easiest put-in he will EVER have! [1-0] Sadly the goalie Blackman is down after landing badly and getting prolonged treatment, but a great start for the Rs!!

Sylla almost didn't realise there was a ball to tap in. A real bizarre goal. Glad to see Wheeler given another chance as we hoped.

To reduce their opportunities. But at least we are winning.

No it cannot end 1-0. We just need to make sure we score next because they are a quick side coming forward! They have had twice the amount of possession we have had but QPR have had better shots on target. Not a classic like Saturday's but just as intense.
