Robert Green – QPR
The 33-year-old’s career hasn’t being going to plan over the past few years.
A high profile blunder at the World Cup, relegation with West Ham and now he’s the second choice ‘keeper for a club he signed for less that 12 months ago.
And he’s about to suffer relegation again.
Signing for QPR on a free transfer last summer, he thought he’d be replacing the the outbound Paddy Kenny as Mark Hughes sought to overhaul the last remnants of Neil Warnock’s regime.
His first game for the club saw them go down 5-0 to Swansea and by the next match, against Chelsea a week later, he’d been replaced by the Brazilian international Julio Cesar.
Since then he’s made just 12 appearances in all competitions, nine coming in the league. He went on record to say that had he known the former Inter custodian would have followed him so Loftus Road then he wouldn’t have joined the club.
Hindsight is a funny thing, Rob, but luckily, he’ll most likely be the number one again next season, albeit in the Championship.
