QPR Vs Luton - 29 December

I am unable to watch this match live as I have bowed to the overwhelming pressure to drive 15 miles to pay through the nose to enjoy a muddy tree plantation festooned with lights! Bah humbug!!

My guess is there will be changes made, and I really hope Johansen is amongst them in midfield (although media reports suggest he and Balogun are still recovering). I also want subs made up front early if it is obvious we are not firing on all cylinders. I very much doubt Roberts will start, but I hope Sinclair is fit and does come on.

This is not a 'must win' but it would be fair to say the Rs need to be clinical at the back to not concede against a side that beat Norwich in their last outing! 

Here is my guess at the StartingXI:

Dieng
Laird Dickie JCS Paal
Tim Field Dozzell
Chair Dykes Willock

It’ll be a tough game tonight, but we’ve shown in the last 2 away games that we’ve tightened things up at the back. Hopefully the crowd can get behind NC and the boys tonight, and we can another positive result!

Anybody else going tonight?

Just can't understand how Shodipo gets a starting place! Chris Willock may be out of form but Shodipo isn't good enough at this level. 

Hopefully Shodipo can prove us all wrong, but how on earth did Critchley see his cameos against Preston and especially Cardiff and think 'he deserves a start'? All he does is run down the wing and try to cross. He's not even as fast as we like to think. He first started a game for us 6 years ago and he's never nailed down a place for an obvious reason.

Critchley has given fans a stick to beat him with now if we play poorly and Shoidpo is subbed at half time.


Presumably Willock can't manage the 3 games in a week yet. Good option off the bench.

Oh dear, 10 minutes gone and its 0-1. 

0-2 and more poor defending from a set piece.
