When can we start to panic?

You can start to panic when Tony Pulis is being linked to the Everton managers job

Honestly can't see how anyone can be confident of beating qpr let alone giving them a hiding. A draw might be the likeliest outcome.

Flip the argument around: who would have honestly believed that we'd have beaten Wolfsburg away 2-0? A team second in Bundesliga?

You could take that as saying QPR can beat us even with their form, or it shows that recent form doesn't always equal the final result.

I'm not saying people should be overly confident, as I am not myself, however I do feel we've still got the quality to beat them.

Especially, if Martinez rests a few of the core squad players for the Europa League. Refresh, train and get some moral up. I hope we'll be fine.

Let's not get carried away, but we do need some optimism otherwise we should just give up now.

QPR are going to come here,play two banks of four and try to counter attack

The same type of system that has stumped us all season

Not confident of beating them but we simply must as the fixtures afterwards look very daunting in our current form

Soton away Newcastle away after that - 2 more defeats on paper.

 

[TomDixie]

Rest everyone for Krasnodar.

For QPR I hope to see something like:

Howard
Coleman Jagielka Distin Baines
McCarthy Osman
Mirallas Barkley Pienaar
Lukaku

Robles, Hibbert, Oviedo, Besic, McGeady, Eto'o, Naismith
​

If we don't win this match, then I'm panicking.

Bookies will have them both favourites which is what I meant by on paper

I'm in such a panic-ridden state, I'm seriously considering jibbing Everton off and switching allegiance to Blackpool . Coz they won yesterday ...Sea Sea Seasiders

There's zero chance of a relegation fight, so if that's what people are prepared to panic over, they're being silly.

There's an outside chance of a barely top 10 finish at worst.

I'll match @Pienaar's gloves in saying that if we're in anything like a relegation dogfight, I'll donate £20 to charity. But similarly, if we finish in the top five, I'll do the same, as I believe both are off the table at this point.

That's when I'll be really panicking.
