Harry: It's time QPR players delivered
Former Tottenham chief Redknapp signed a 2½-year deal today before travelling to this afternoon's clash at Manchester United.
He said of the bottom side's survival chances: "I'll try. If the players try as hard we've got a big chance.
"They have the potential. They had a good manager in Mark Hughes.
Theres no doubt theres a lot of ability in the squad but for one reason or another things havent gone as well as everyone expected since the start of the season.
I cant wait to get to work and get the results necessary to kick-start our season.
Winless QPR acted swiftly after axing Mark Hughes for starting with just four points from 12 games.
Redknapp told the Hoops' website: When I spoke to the shareholders and they told me about their plans I knew this was too good an opportunity to turn down."
Club chairman Tony Fernandes said Redknapp was QPR's top choice.
He added: "His man-management skills are second to none and we are confident he is the right man to lead us away from the bottom of the table."
