Chris Ramsey pleased with "healthy competition" at Queens Park Rangers

Chris Ramsey hopes that the "healthy competition" for places in his Queens Park Rangers starting lineup will help bring the best out of each player.

Queens Park Rangers boss Chris Ramsey has admitted that he is delighted with his current group of players.

The Hoops kept hold of an array of star names in the summer, most notably Charlie Austin and Rob Green, while also bringing in some further depth.

Ramsey, who saw his side take 10 points from a possible 15 prior to the two-week international break, is now looking to prolong a three-match winning run over the next week.

"We've got some healthy competition here now," he told the club's official website. "All the lads here are pushing each other - pushing each other for starting berths - in training and on matchdays.

"The break probably came at the wrong time with us registering three wins in a row, but the lads have shown a great attitude in the last fortnight.

"They've had a couple of days off over the last two weeks, but that's it. The focus has been very much on preparing for a tough week ahead, with three fixtures in eight days, starting tomorrow against Forest."

QPR find themselves in fourth place in the Championship table, three points adrift of early leaders Brighton & Hove Albion.
