The Spanish midfielder believes that his side have the talent to match Chelsea, when the crucial game takes place after the International fixtures.

After choosing Queens Park http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Rangers-c40314 as his next destination, the play-maker was drafted in for the game against Manchester City last week, in which the Hoops fought valiantly to secure a point away from home.
The first London derby proved to be a feisty occasion but the city is still yet to witness a mammoth clash between http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 and QPR at Loftus Road.
Although Mark Hughes’ man were pushovers last term, they have strengthened considerably this summer and look set to challenge for a European finish with the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Fabio-c13152, Jose Bosingwa and Ji-Sung Park amongst their array of talent.
Granero looks likely to form a strong partnership with http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Adel-Taarabt-c3610 in the middle of the park and after getting his baptism in the English game is raring to go for the Blues’ visit.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roberto-c31294 Di Matteo’s men are in superb form this season and are blessed with a number of quality players, but the Spaniard believes that he and his teammates can rise to occasion by snatching a positive result.
“We can take this confidence into the Chelsea game now. We’re also playing at Loftus Road, so this will give us some more strength. We will have our supporters with us. We will try hard. They’re also a good team, but we have confidence in our team and we
now have two weeks to prepare for it,” he said.
Meanwhile, QPR prepare to offload some of the excessive strain on the wage bill and are likely to drop the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Robert-c31222 Green and Jay Bothroyd to the lower leagues, just like they did with controversial midfielder Joey Barton a few days ago.
Hughes barely managed to keep his team in the top flight last time out but with new recruits and a fresh start, the club have lofty ambitions that could be possibly fulfilled in May.
