QPR have enjoyed a solid start to the season under manager Mark Warburton, unbeaten in three starts in all competitions and currently fourth in the Championship, ahead of the weekend trip to Bristol City.

One player though was clearly not part of Warburton's plans is midfielder Sean Goss, who has now joined Shrewsbury Town on a two-year deal for an undisclosed fee, as confirmed by the club.

So have QPR made the right decision in offloading Goss?

We discuss........

Ned Holmes

“Yes, I think this is a good move for all parties involved.

“Goss clearly wasn't a part of Mark Warburton’s plans, so it makes sense for the West London club to offload the 23-year-old before the transfer window closes.

“He was underwhelming on loan at St Johnstone last season, making just seven appearances for the Scottish club, and I don’t see this being much of a loss for the R’s.

“QPR added 14 players in the summer transfer window, so it would make sense that they would need to clear some room.”

Josh Cole

“Cutting ties with Goss could prove to be the correct decision for Queens Park Rangers boss Mark Warburton to make given the 23-year-old’s lack of involvement in recent years.

“Having only made seven appearances for the Hoops since joining the club from Manchester United two years ago, the midfielder has ultimately failed to live up to expectations.

“With Goss currently behind the likes of Luke Amos, Josh Scowen and Geoff Cameron in the pecking order at the Kiyan Prince Foundation Stadium, there is little chance that he will be able to play regular first-team football for the R’s this season and thus allowing him to leave is wise.

“For Goss’ sake, a permanent exit this summer could give him the opportunity to start afresh after seeing his career stagnate somewhat whilst with the Hoops.”

"I think this is the right call as it's just not really worked out for Goss at Loftus Road, and he now needs to play senior football regularly.

"The 23-year-old has not played much senior football for someone his age, so dropping down a division could see him thrive.

"He is a defensive midfielder but is ability to pick a pass means he could be dangerous in League One.

"He has clearly failed to impress Mark Warburton since the new boss' arrival, so I think Goss should actually now feel relieved to be leaving the club as he can look to get his career back on track elsewhere."
