Jermaine Jenas: 'Queens Park Rangers need to change approach'

By , Reporter
Queens Park Rangers should copy Southampton's model after relegation, says Jermaine Jenas.

Former Queens Park Rangers midfielder Jermaine Jenas has advised his former club to change their structure.

The Hoops were relegated from the Premier League yesterday thanks to a heavy 6-0 loss at Manchester City, and Jenas believes that they need to change their way of operating if they want to bounce back.

He told BBC Sport: "Whoever is in charge, QPR have to rethink their whole approach. Southampton are the standout club for how to get it right and their model is the one that Rangers should adopt.

"They dropped as far down as League One but went back to their roots and concentrated on developing young players. Saints had to be patient but they are reaping the rewards now."

Jenas played 38 times for the West London side.
