QPR fullback Adama Traore admits former manager Mark Hughes changed too much too soon during his time in charge.
Hughes, now in charge of Stoke City, will face his old club today.
"I think it's a much happier club now," Traore told the Fulham Chronicle. "Everyone is getting stuck in together. It's much better in the changing room. We go out with the team and get team dinners. We do things together. Before, it was just train and go home."
Hughes oversaw a mass overhaul of the Rangers playing squad during his time in charge, a move Traore believes ultimately cost him his job.
"I believe he got a lot of players in the transfer window and players that have done great things," he said. "It was too many players too soon. Too many big games too quickly. We had changing room problems. It wasn't working well."
