Not sure how many of you have seen the QPR player video of Taarabt after the reading game? He couldnt speak highly enough of MH and his team and how they prepare the players. Now I dont expect Adel or any player to speak out against the manager if they didnt like him, but the strength behind his words in support of him was undoubted. He said it is the players fault and not MH.
If Taarabt got over his FK strops, Id really consider giving him the assistant captain behind Granero next season. Now Im off to take my meds.
Dreadful lack of respect for our Manager. I'm not surprised Tarbs has said that as Hughes has treated him fairly and is now bringing the best out of him. Its a good sign that the players are rallying around him.
To be honest pretty much every player that has been interviewed recently has only had good things to say about Hughes. I don't think they'd offer an opinion on him if they thought he was crap. They certainly all seem genuine in their interview too
Lets hope its genuine respect for Hughes, and not fear that they will be warming the bench for weeks if they don't follow the party line! I feel he probably is a lot warmer and more competent football man in a small group, than he comes across in front of crowds and cameras. Hopefully too he is a lot better at getting the best out of players than he has done so far, Adel excluded from this. If we are stuck with him for the rest of the season he'll need all the luck and support he can possibly get. I'll be giving him that at Stoke and the weekend after, even though his tactics, and player selections are really p*ssing me off.
