Think the consensus is, not ready for this level and inclined to agree.
Horrible stats; 7 games, 2 wins, 5 defeats, goals for 10, goals against 20!
That said, I’d question how the manager is using him, he’s been flung into many games where, if anywhere in this league, there was a fair chance we could get a proper spanking.
We’ve got RND who looks the part, why play the young lad at Coventry, Boro, WBA, Ipswich?
He should be out on loan, hard to see what he’s gaining from this other than an inferiority complex. |  | | |  |

I'll repeat what I said on the match thread. If you are playing 4-4-2 its about partnerships, Left back and left wing have to operate as one. especially when playing a high press. Saito had an absolute stinker, along with Varane. You also had a left centre back who has not played there for a season playing a partnership he has not played with before in front of a keeper who has not played there before. Each of them has to have an understanding of where the other will be on the pitch at any given time. Without that understanding they have to take a second to think which slows them down and also leads to mistakes when you are being pressed.
This kid is nothing like Hämäläinen a far better player with much much more talent. Manager has thrown him to the wolves in the last two games. But I tell you what, if he is going to develop he will have learnt more in those two games than in the last couple of years of coaching
Have we learnt nothing from the Madsen redemption arc. Give the lad some space to develop |
That's a really good point about partnerships in a 4-4-2. |  | | |

Interesting you say he's a far better player with much more talent than Hämäläinen. What are you basing that on? (Genuinely interested). We have a very small sample size for Esquerdinha.
Hämäläinen came on first in a game away at Fulham, looked decent in that game, which we won. Then started away at someone I forget now and looked very much like Esquerdinha against Ipswich. Never really kicked on.
Without wishing to be cruel, like almost all of QPR's DS/U23 players over the years, they look like future Baller League players to me.
Then again, I'm not a football coach, not a scout, not in recruitment, so what do I know other than the only full-back we've produced in 20, 30 years is Darnell Furlong...and he looked like he was going to make it at the level from the off, unlike those two.
Re: Madsen. The redemption arc was always more feasible as he was signed as a 24 year-old with 150+ pro games at a decent level under his belt. Didn't see it coming though. Glad to be proven wrong by him, hope to be by Esquerdinha. |  | | |

As a club we can't bang on about the development club and then when we have a promising kid never pick him.
No issue at all with him playing last night and he did fine, neither brilliant or awful. I hope he ends up getting another 5-10 games before the end of the season
I'd much rather we made those changes last night than in the FA Cup |
He was bloody awful Mate! | |

Watched a fair amount of football over the years, so I can only say its pretty instinctive, went to the dev PL cup final both he and Morgan were the best players on the pitch against Brentfords multi million pound set up. He's an attacking full back with a wicked cross but he can defend too and is stronger than you think. Just needs a bit of time, some players come in and look ready from the off then tail off (i.e Morgan) he needs games, not against a loan. He's going to have good games and stinkers but he is 19 with a good 3 or 4 years worth of development to do so I think his ceiling is quite high. Only way to learn is on the pitch. Not to say it will happen, Hämäläinen just never saw anything there or anything that looked like it would develop |  | | |

Interesting that you mentioned Darnell Furlong, TK.
If I remember correctly, he was thrown into the First Team before he was 'ready', for a match against Crystal Palace and was pitched against one of the trickiest wingers, in the form of Bolasie. The experience was said to have wrecked Darnell's confidence. Fortunately, he recovered and went from strength to strength. | | | |
