Millwall’s Neil Harris is a fan of Queens Park Rangers striker Nakhi Wells.
Millwall manager Neil Harris says the quality of Queens Park Rangers striker Nakhi Wells is proof of how difficult the Championship is as he calls on the need for perspective, South London Press report.
“If you start with seven points from three or four games then people get carried away thinking we are going to win the league. But look at the quality in this division,” Harris explained.
“Nakhi Wells’ finish [for his first goal] – we get in that position five, six or seven times and we don’t score. It is why Nakhi Wells has played in the Premier League for half of his career. We need perspective.”
Millwall started the campaign in excellent form, but just two points from the previous five games has seen them slip down the Championship table.
At the weekend, Neil Harris’s side lost 2-1 at home to Queens Park Rangers and Wells grabbed both goals as he continued his excellent start to the campaign.
The 29-year-old re-joined the Hoops on a season-long loan deal from Burnley on deadline day. He scored nine times last year, and this time around he looks set to smash that record before Christmas.
Wells has five goals in six Championship games for QPR. His confidence is high, and under manager Mark Warburton, the Hoops are playing decent football and creating good goal scoring chances.
The West London side have racked up four straight league wins to position themselves in the playoffs. There is a long way to go, but the signs are looking good and in Wells they have a 20-goal striker in their ranks.
