Ramsey laments 'schoolboy' defending as QPR quality is questioned

Chris Ramsey was bitterly disappointed with his QPR side following their final day hammering at the hands of Leicester City.

The already-relegated R's, who ended the season at the foot of the Premier League table, were beaten 5-1 by the Foxes at King Power Stadium leaving newly-appointed permanent boss Ramsey to ask some questions of his players.

"It was very disappointing as some of our defending was schoolboy and we weren't able to capitalise on the few chances we had at crucial points of the game," Ramsey said.

"That has probably been the story of our season, we didn't take our chances at 2-0 and then the game goes away from you.

"I thought there was a pride in the performance, in the effort but not the quality.

"That's the reason we're in this position, we do good things but then undo it with lack of concentration.

"The players who turned out gave what they had and they've been doing that all season, but in the end quality tells."
