RYAN Nelsen insists ‘it’s only a matter of time’ before QPR collect their first Premier League win of the campaign.
Rangers have produced a number of impressive performances this term but have been unable to turn such positive displays into wins.
The New Zealand international skipper, however, told www.qpr.co.uk that it’s not for the want of trying.
“Both the management and players are giving everything – we just need that first league win to get that monkey off our backs,” Nelsen said.
“Nothing comes easy at this level. You’ve just got to keep going and keep doing the right things – as we’re doing.
“You’re going to have your ups and downs in seasons. But I know with the characters we’ve got in the dressing room and the management team we’ve got, it’s only going to be a matter of time before we get that first league win.
“The manager has a way that he wants to play that’s been proven successful for many years. It just takes time.
“Everybody can see that the performances are there. Hopefully when one win happens, it’ll be a monsoon after that.”
The Hoops welcome West Ham United to Loftus Road for a live Sky Sports showdown on Monday evening, and Nelsen added: “It’s another London derby and we’re all really looking forward to it.
“Monday night can’t come quick enough.”
