Good balanced viewpoints.

AVB has been an easy target for both the press and opposition fans, but it's about time people acknowledged that he is doing a very good job, tactically, squad wise, man management wise, Europa cup wise and results wise. Our 6 best players over last season were: King, Modric, VDV, Bale, Parker & Kaboul. 5 of them have not been here this season yet he has rolled with it and is challenging better than most expected for a CL spot. I'm relishing the last few months of the season, I think we can do good things under AVB - this year and in the coming seasons, he is the future.

Glad to hear something positive about AVB. He's had a lesser squad to work with than redknapp did yet he's been given all sorts of stick whenever we've lost a game, all because he's not mr rent-a-quote from his car window. The press are too busy focusing on lampard, mourinho and redknapp to look at the positives mentioned in the piece. Wish they'd open their eyes up and look at redknapp getting ready to bankrupt a second club in 5 years
Not sure I agree with the attitude that to compliment AVB you have to slate Harry. Contrary to popular belief Harry doesn't control what the press write about him or anyone else, nor does he write the cheques at qpr or pompey. He did a good job for us with our best consecutive finishes in decades, CL quarters and some of the best football I've seen at the Lane, I wish people would stop knocking him.
im with ace on the points about HR....
and ive said in recent weeks.....while i cant warm too avb.....he is however impressing me more and more with the job he is doing.
'White Hard Lane' i like dat

You don't have to agree to it, each to their own
Speaking of Harry, looks like he's about to sign Remy and M'Vila for QPR. These are players that have been touted to join much bigger clubs during recent transfer windows, why in the name of all that's sacred are they going to that god forsaken hell hole Loftus Road to get a relegation on their cv. Greedy b*stards.
This is QPRs squad:
Goalkeepers
Cesar
Green
Cerny
Murphy
Defenders
Nelsen
Traore
Hill
Bosingwa
Mbia
Onuoha
Fabio
Ferdinand
Harriman
Young
Ben Haim
Midfielders
Taarabt
Wright-Phillips
Granero
Hoilett
Faurlin
Park
Diakite
Derry
Buzsaky
Andrade
Ehmer
Ephraim
Forwards
Cisse
Mackie
Zamora
Johnson
Bothroyd
Campbell
32 players with 2 or 3 more on their way!!!
And when you think that Hary said Bosingwa was on more at QPR than any player was on at Spurs you can only imaging what their wage bill is.
Some of those, like Campbell, Bothroyd etc are good honest pros who will want to be playing rather than taking money for doing nothing.
Problem QPR will have is getting rid of those on high wages because the likes of Bosingwa will take there £80-90k a week and sit in the reserves rather than take a pay cut and move on!
Their own better have deep pockets otherwise they might be scewed in the long term espewcially if they go down.
Whether they had the foresight at the time of signing 13 new players in the summer to actually have a clause in contracts relating to wages and relegation, who knows. They probably did not expect to be rock bottom so maybe not......another Pomepy in the making, although no fault of Harry, of course
I would love for AVB to be a sucess at spurs and go on to manage us long term as fergie has. He has age on his side so could manage us for a long time.
