Rangers boss faces decision on Dunne

By

QPR boss Harry Redknapp will make a late decision on whether to select out-of-form defender Richard Dunne for today’s derby against Millwall.

Dunne, 34, has struggled in recent matches and Redknapp plans to rest him for at least one of Rangers’ two remaining games before the play-offs.

He explained: “We’ve been discussing it. Dunny certainly needs a rest, whether it’s against Millwall or next week. I will look to rest him at some stage.

“When he came in at the start of the year he hadn’t played all last year. We thought ‘if we get 20 or 25 games out of him it’s going to be great for us’ and he’s played almost every game.

“He has been fantastic. But I’ll look at it and decide whether I’ll play him [against Millwall] and rest him next Saturday or whatever.”

Benoit Assou-Ekotto is available after serving a one-match ban, but Jermaine Jenas remains sidelined with a calf problem.
