QPR striker Bobby Zamora believes it would be "crazy" if Harry Redknapp lost his job as the club’s manager.
With Rangers bottom of the Premier League with just four points from seven matches as they prepare to host Liverpool on Sunday, Redknapp's position at Loftus Road is reportedly under threat.
But Zamora, whose last-gasp playoff final winner secured a top-flight return for QPR last season, does not see the sense in replacing Redknapp - who he says has built a team with the spirit to survive.
QPR owner Tony Fernandes has publicly backed his manager but that could change in the coming weeks if results do not show signs of improving.
"It is crazy," said Zamora about the growing speculation over his manager's future.
"Harry has a wealth of experience and has seen it all; relegations, promotions, finals - he's seen it all. It really is crazy with so many games to go. You can win two games and you're right back up there.
"We are all behind him. He brought most of us in. Harry has supported us and wanted us here. Everyone is behind him and now we have just got to do our part on a matchday.
"The press are perhaps making more of this and we are all asked the same question. It hasn't come to the point where it's panic stations - far from it. It really is so early."
Zamora, 33, has yet to start a league game for the Hoops this season after signing a new contract with the club over the summer.
We are all behind him. He brought most of us in. Harry has supported us and wanted us here.
He was a member of the squad that was relegated two seasons ago when Redknapp took over from Mark Hughes after a bad start to the campaign, but he believes they are now in a better situation.
He said: "We are in a better position all around, the players, the club, everything. There are 31 games to go, there is plenty of time to get out of this.
"Everything from two and half years ago to now, the club has come on from. The management, the squad, the facilities are different.
"There are only four or five players left from that time; there has been a big turnaround. There's a good togetherness, the lads all get on now. Rio Ferdinand has come in and he has been impressed with how the lads are together.
"He was at Man United for a long time and he can't believe the togetherness of the lads and the spirit that's here."
