Hasselbaink plays down play-off prospects

Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink has played down the prospect of QPR competing for a play-off place following their win against Bristol City.

Tuesday’s 1-0 victory left Rangers ninth in the Championship table, just one point away from the top six.

Hasselbaink’s side, who travel to Sheffield Wednesday this weekend, are unbeaten in five matches.

Asked if the play-offs is a realistic aim, manager Hasselbaink said: “We want to be there. But at this moment in time the most important thing is to accumulate as many points as we can.

“Saturday is another big game. Can we bring that same kind of determination to that game?

“We need to try to get as many points as possible and then see at the beginning of next year where we are.”

Rangers will assess Jordan Cousins and Joel Lynch ahead of Saturday’s game after both players limped off against City.
