Harry Redknapp has told his QPR players to keep the faith following today’s defeat at high-flying Southampton.
The R’s boss, who was subject to verbal abuse from the Saints fans throughout the 2-1 defeat, is still looking for his first three points on the road this season.
Redknapp said: “We came back strongly after their goal and I felt we had every opportunity at that stage of the game but their centre-forward produced a world-class goal.
“Niko Kranjcar hit a fantastic free-kick but it hit the woodwork and we couldn't get the break.
"We didn't give up today and it was a much better performance. Charlie [Austin] took his goal well today and that's encouraging. He's proven that he can score goals in the Premier League.
"Southampton are a good side but I felt we stuck at it and we got a bit more belief in ourselves today and we've got to continue to believe."
Rangers will be looking for a response when they travel to West Ham next Sunday.
