Nedum Onuoha has lifted the lid on his seemingly nutty decision to swap title-chasers Manchester City for relegation-ravaged Queens Park Rangers.
Onuoha could have been going through the motions at City with no hassle.
Onuoha insisted: “I don’t regret coming here at all.
“Yes, City were top of the league but I wasn’t really a part of it.
“I was only training with the side every so often and though pleased to see them doing well, I didn’t feel like it was my team.
“So I knew I had to get away and start my season as soon as I could.
“QPR has got under my skin already. I’m enjoying it.
“I never thought I’d ever move to London – because of the North-South divide thing – but I’m really enjoying it.
“I hope City win the league but it wasn’t that difficult a decision to leave because I wasn’t really part of it.
“I will not get a medal if they win it as I didn’t play enough and to be honest I don’t think I’d want one anyway.
“I’d get much more satisfaction from helping to keep QPR up.
“And I’d be really happy if QPR were safe before the final game because that’s away at City!
“It would be great for me if we were safe and they were being presented with the title as well.”
It may be a big shock for Nedum to go from being part of a championship chasing team to a relegation dog fight with QPR, but he is optimistic of Rangers’ survival, if they can only start winning games.
He added: “The bottom five is a mini league now and the priority for the five teams down there is to start winning games.
“We will do our best to win as many games as we can because whoever gets the most wins now will be champions of the mini league and stay up.”
