Lee Cook on QPR's Prospects & Waddock as Coach & Manager

LEE Cook has warned that QPR will be facing a relegation scrap if they fail to pick up three points against Leicester this weekend...
."We have to start winning games because we're back in the dogfight now and that's not somewhere we want to be.
"Our home form hasn't been great - we've only picked up one point from Norwich and Derby at Loftus Road - and we need to sort it out quickly. If we don't, we could be in trouble.
"We've let in a lot of goals and you can't keep coming out needing to score three to win a game. We seem to get punished for sloppy mistakes and when other teams do it we don't punish them enough.
"We've got to be confident, think about the wins we had against Hull and Southampton and get back to playing that way."...
Cook has blossomed under Gregory and his predecessor, Gary Waddock, and the current Rangers boss admitted on Saturday that the 24-year-old winger might prove 'difficult to hang on to'.
"Everyone wants to do well and play at the highest level - and I want to do that with QPR," Cook declared.
"I think we've got the right manager to take us there - he's a Premiership manager and he brings that mentality to us.
"Over time we're going to be a very good team and one that's horrible to play against - teams are not going to want to come to Loftus Road."
Waddock, who did stay on as a coach during Gregory's first month in charge, finally left Loftus Road last week and Cook admitted his departure was probably inevitable.
"Waddo's a great coach, his training sessions were always high tempo and everyone felt they were getting something out of it. He'll move on and get another coaching job, I'm sure of that.
"It's a shame to see him go, but he'd been relegated from management and no-one really expected he'd still be at the club after a new manager came in.
"I don't think he felt right at the club after that. You could tell it was a bit difficult for him, but all the players understand that and we hope he does well
