Sebastian Polter faces disciplinary action from QPR for a message he posted on Twitter after being left out of the squad against Sheffield Wednesday.
Polter’s tweet, which included an expletive and was later deleted, was posted after he had been told by Chris Ramsey that he would not even be among the substitutes for Tuesday’s game at Loftus Road.
His omission meant Rangers did not have a striker on the bench. Head coach Ramsey was barracked by fans when lone forward Jay Emmanuel-Thomas was replaced by Leroy Fer in the second half.
“I’m disappointed that he’s tweeted and, having spoken to the players, we’re all in it together and I think they probably share that disappointment,” Ramsey said.
“It’s an internal thing. We have a social-media policy at the club and it will be dealt with internally.”
German Polter, 24, has failed to impress since being signed from Mainz during the summer and has not started a league game this season.
He has started two League Cup matches and scored in the first-round win at Yeovil in August.

"Failed to impress"
He's played less than 45 minutes in Championship so far this season!
