Paulo Sousa could haunt dour Rangers

Of all the managerial carnage under the reign of Queens Park Rangers' former owner Flavio Briatore, perhaps the most senseless sacking was that of Paulo Sousa.

The folly of that act could impact on Saturday when Sousa brings Swansea to Loftus Road, playing the most attractive football in the division.

Insiders say Sousa had the QPR players' utmost respect for his coaching. Rangers punters will appreciate Swansea's style while QPR will be playing a more basic way under new boss Neil Warnock.

Rangers were unlucky to lose 1-0 at Reading during the week but will Sousa's team leave QPR fans wondering what might have been?
