MARTI Cifuentes wants even more goals after last week’s vital 2-0 victories at Preston.
QPR made it two wins in the space of three days following an earlier 4-2 success over Stoke to give a major boost to their bid to beat the Championship drop.
They will be trying to make it three wins on the spin tomorrow when Hull City visit Loftus Road and Cifuentes believes the six-goal haul from the previous two games has shown what his side are capable of as an attacking force.
“It is an indication that we have quality in the team to make sure that we can create chances and to score goals,” the manager told QPR TV.
“I’m very glad about the work that the whole team has been doing, but as well especially the guys at the top.
“Something I am very happy for was the second goal against Preston because we talk a lot about connections, white triangles and so on.
“But for me it is very important as well that the two wingers connect to each other, even if it seems they are very far away from each other on the pitch.
“We like the wingers to keep the width for many moments of the game.
“When it comes to the last third, I love when one winger is assisting the other one and it happened in some ways.
“I think the team is taking to the ideas and now it is about them showing that we have the quality.
“Definitely we have different tools, different kind of wingers, different kind of strikers and that’s good for a coach.”
Cifuentes has spoken regularly since his appointment about the need for his new charges to stay humble and again pointed out nobody is getting carried away ahead of the Tigers clash.
He explained: “I think the players do understand.
“When you are involved in the game as they have been doing, as I have been doing, you learn that it doesn’t matter today what you achieved yesterday in your career, It is not going to help you so much actually.
“So I’m very happy for them and the supporters that we’ve managed to turn a bit a difficult situation, but it has only been two wins in a row so it is not that now we can expect the next game will be easy or we can expect now we are already safe or whatever it is.”
Those two wins have certainly helped but the fact remains QPR are currently four points from safety, so Cifuentes feels there is still much more needed, starting tomorrow against a team currently sitting in the play-offs.
The Hoops boss explained: “The reality is we are in a situation where we need to collect a lot of points and Hull will not be worse just because we won against Preston. That’s not how football works.
“What we need to learn is that we need to perform probably at a much better level than we did against Preston if we want to get the three points against Hull, basically because the table is showing that Hull is a very good team.
“They have a lot of quality individually and collectively they are performing at a very good level.”
Cifuentes added: “Everybody understands that we want to build that feeling at home where we are very strong, where we play football that is very difficult for the opponent to cope with because we attack a lot, because we have a high intensity in the sense that we attack them again, that we are relentless and don’t give them a lot of time on the ball.
“But knowing that it is not going to be easy to try to just win game after game after game because it is not happening in any league in the world.”
Sinclair Armstrong has trained all week and should be available for selection to face the Tigers.
Albert Adomah and Morgan Fox remain a few weeks from full fitness but both have been training this week.
