QPR manager Marti Cifuentes is not happy with his team’s performance in the current Championship season. The team is struggling, with only one win so far and sitting in the bottom three of the league table. After a disappointing 2-0 defeat against Derby County, Cifuentes believes it is crucial to use the international break to reflect on what is going wrong and make necessary improvements.
During the defeat at Derby, Cifuentes admitted that the first half was particularly poor and the team conceded two quick goals in the second half. He emphasized the importance of not pointing fingers but rather focusing on how they can react and improve moving forward. The upcoming two-week break will be a challenging period for the team as they analyze their shortcomings and work on their weaknesses.
Cifuentes acknowledged the need for the team to play the style of football they have been aiming for and to be more effective in implementing their game plan, especially in physical matches. Despite the disappointing start to the season, Cifuentes remains optimistic about turning things around, drawing on his past experiences in similar situations.
The QPR manager expressed his regret for not being able to deliver a better performance for the fans who showed up to support the team. As they prepare to face Portsmouth, another struggling team in the league, Cifuentes is determined to use this break to regroup, identify areas for improvement, and come back stronger in the upcoming matches.
It is clear that Cifuentes is committed to leading QPR out of this rough patch and is focused on working with the players to find solutions and play the style of football that they have been aiming for. The upcoming matches will be crucial for QPR to show their progress and climb up the league table, and the international break provides a valuable opportunity for the team to reset and refocus their efforts.
