Only 20 minutes gone but he's certainly working hard and is doing a lot of chasing and closing down. Be interesting to see if he gets more than 45 minutes.
Yes a handful for the defenders so far and definitely looks leaner.
Nardi just made a fantastic save and looks very comfortable and good with his distribution.
Steve Cook different gravy already too. His positioning is as good as I've ever seen from a QPR defender.
Kolli hits the bar, saved onto the bar. Chair-esque effort cutting inside and bending one from outside the box.
At HT 0-1 to Spurs, after they finally managed to break through a very determined defence. All of the above team comments are spot on. Very impressed with Nandi; Andersen is lively and unpredictable; Smyth is back to his best; Cook & JCS are solid, with Cook making some great tackles; Dunne has also worked well and made a crucial tackle; Paal is getting overrun on the left, but I feel that is because Dixon-Bonner is not doing enough (it is almost as if he is going through the motions); Colback, in contrast, is doing well with his tackling and distribution; Kolli has taken advantage of the chance to start and has done well, including that shot on target from distance; and that leaves Frey, who is indeed looking fitter and having his moments. Hopefully the injury Steve Cook suffered towards the end of the half will not be serious, but I expect him to be replaced.

I agree about Paal getting over run. Brennan Johnson has been giving them a tough time down our left.
