QPR manager Chris Ramsey has said that the rebuilding phase at Loftus Road has already started after suffering relegation from the Premier League on Sunday.

The R's were the second team to drop from the Premier League to the Championship this season, joining Burnley, after they suffered an embarrassing 6-0 defeat to Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium.

Of QPR's plight, Ramsey said: "Everybody is very disappointed we've lost our status in the Premier League but knew coming here today it was going to be very, very difficult and we would have obviously rather performed better than that.

"The club's in a rebuilding phase now and it would have been anyway regardless of what had happened to us today.

"There's a lot of people at the club that will be disappointed in the way we conducted ourselves today."
