QPR boss Harry Redknapp was left to lament a couple of additional injuries to his squad after Saturday's 2-2 draw with Stoke City.
The R's came from behind on two occasions to force the draw at Loftus Road but it came as a cost as midfielders Joey Barton and Jordon Mutch both came off with hamstring injuries.
The west Londoners are already without summer signing Sandro, who has a knee problem, and the two fresh injuries were really felt by Redknapp after his side showed plenty of character to land a point at home.
"It was a difficult day for us with the injuries we picked up. It's been a tough week really," said Redknapp.
"We had a lot of players with knocks in the week and then Joey and Jordon both picked up fresh hamstring injuries today.
"It was difficult. We lost Sandro on Thursday with a knee injury as well. We were short in certain areas, but credit to the lads, they kept going."
QPR, who levelled twice through Steven Caulker and Niko Kranjcar, now sit 16th on the Premier League table on four points while the Potters are 13th after their second draw of the campaign.
