QPR boss Mark Hughes insists Jay Bothroyd and DJ Campbell are still part of his plans
Hughes has seven players who are capable of leading QPR's line for the remainder of the season after submitting his 25-man squad on Thursday.
Cisse netted on his debut in the 2-2 draw against Aston Villa on Wednesday, while Zamora has yet to make his first appearance following his deadline-day move from Fulham. But with his wealth of options, Hughes is adamant the strikers who were brought to the club by former boss Neil Warnock still have a part to play this term.
"They will be involved in the 25-man squad and I will use each and every one of them," Hughes told reporters.
“I don't see [the point in] putting people in the squad, even if their opportunities aren't readily available as they would like, and offering them up for loan deals. That doesn't make sense to me.'
Hughes also revealed that the players who had not made the 25-man squad would be loaned out for the remainder of the season. Many who missed the cut were part of last season's Championship-winning side, including Hogan Ephraim, Peter Ramage, Patrick Agyemang and Bruno Perone.
"We've got a big squad and a lot of players haven't been involved at first-team level," he said.
"It's been difficult given the fact that I've only just come in in January. Ideally I would've liked to be in a position where I could assess everyone over six or seven weeks, like in pre-season
"I haven't had that luxury so I've had to make decisions.
"We'll look at loaning out the guys who are not in the 25. The 25-man squad is what will sustain us until the end of the season."
