QPR: Robins could fix a big issue

Queens Park Rangers are reportedly involved in appointing Mark Robins as Michael Beale’s successor and the Englishman might repair a obvious situation at Loftus Street.

Whereas it would show troublesome to prise Robins away from the high-flying Sky Blues, reports definitely recommend that he is among the principal candidates to take over in west London, following Beale’s transfer to Glasgow Rangers final week.

Robins has taken Coventry from League Two to the Championship throughout his time at the club and it appears as if a exceptional journey to the Premier League might nicely be on the playing cards when you think about their begin to the present marketing campaign.

Journalist Richard Keys was stuffed with reward for the job that the 52-year-old has executed at Coventry earlier this yr.

He said: “Robins is among the brightest and greatest coaches outdoors the Premier League. He’s executed a rare job cleansing up a wasted decade inflicted by SISU.”

Regardless of seeing a variety of video games referred to as off early within the season, Coventry presently sit 12th within the second tier forward of this weekend’s fixtures.

Do you suppose Robins could be a very good appointment?

Forward of the World Cup break, Robins’ aspect would impressively win every of their final 4 video games with out conceding a single purpose, together with a 2-0 overcome QPR, and their very good defensive document is among the principal causes behind their sensible current kind.

Solely Preston North Finish have stored greater than Coventry’s 10 clear sheets this season, though it’s the Sky Blues that boast the most effective clear sheet share within the league, having managed to maintain the opposition out in additional than half of their video games.

Though QPR presently sit two factors and 6 locations above them within the second tier, the Rs have managed simply five clear sheets in 21 league video games this season – with solely three groups preserving fewer – which means that defence is a key situation for the Hoops.

Subsequently, if Robins have been to reach at Loftus Street, you’ll hope that he would look to amend this situation, as QPR don’t have any probability of promotion in the event that they preserve conceding so many objectives, with Sir Alex Ferguson maybe placing it greatest when he said that “assault wins you video games, defence wins you titles.”
