Ainsworth repeatedly said the bar for him was about working hard and if players didn’t hit that, they wouldn’t be picked. Much like Stephan. It was not directly at Willock, but it was indirect, as he wasn’t getting selected.
The point is that Kolli is in a similar position. We have a similar “work hard at all costs” manager in Stephan. Flair players must do their running. Whether you agree with the fact every single player, regardless of their role in the team, should be held to the same work hard bar is a matter of opinion.
For me personally, I’d be happy to select players on their strengths not weaknesses, like Marti did with Willock. And even Warnock did with Adel in the extreme. In my opinion, there is an in between, and not all players have to be held to a black and white work your nuts off philosophy or you don’t play. But again, it’s all about personal preference and one’s own decision making. |
I’m not sure JS definition of work hard in training must mean doing lots of running. Some players will never survive training like that, JCS springs to mind
Work hard can mean
- be punctual
- focused and being positive
- receptive to being coached and willingness to learn
- work on fitness and stamina
- work on team strategies and teamwork
- do extra training if one is miles off
- etc etc
Every player, regardless of position and role in team should be taken on the same standard reflected above - train well and train hard? Yes, absolutely
JS said Scarlett deserved to be selected. And I can’t see that means he did lots of non stop running
And when you think about Kolli, his fitness, work rate and team play during matches, one will be intrigued.
Did he train well? Well I don’t mean just running… [Post edited 19 Sep 10:16]

Crikey … that Kolli bloke is a hot topic.
For me, everything is in the hands of the player - the manager has made it clear his door is open and he’s ready to work with a fully committed footballer; the club provided alternative opportunities that Kolli and his ‘adviser’ dismissed. All he has to do is walk into JS’s office and say he’s ready to commit and get back in the matchday squad - no dramas, no outside influences, just be a QPR footballer bought into the way the club is being run now.
There’s been a few references using ‘Kolli’ and ‘flair player’ in the same sentence - sorry, can’t be having that, he is not a flair player. He’s an unproven striker with very few 90 minute first team games under his belt. He’s been here long enough, under a plethora of managers, and not managed to push-on. We have had seasons of attitude stories around him, his dad, his advisers - not from the club, but from ITK posters. I’ve seen some good moments from him and some poor performances - but not a lot of minutes to determine if there really is a Championship player in there. I’d like there to be, for all our sakes.
As I started, it’s firmly in HIS hands to prove everyone wrong. That includes most posters, bar a handful on here, and the current management set-up at HQ. I’d be more than happy to see him get in the squad, score 10 goals in a season, start 36 games in a season (like Kone) and push on from there to great heights for us and for himself.
This ‘incident’ talk - have we heard from the person(s) who supposedly said this and their side of the conversation? Just saying (in fairness). There’s always two sides. Just saying.
On the FF - it was a lot of good discussion. I thought all three answered questions well and there were a number of difficult questions brought out we would have wanted to hear about (injuries, Kolli, stadium problems, new stadium etc.).
We have all complained about the terrible toxic culture of the past and there seemed no way out of it over the last several years. It really does feel like this current group are turning that around finally. There’s no quick fix to changing culture but these guys are slowly doing it from all areas of the club. For me, that’s massive and long may we continue to push through it. We will come out so much better as a club and as a football team in the end. |  | | |
