    Spot on. Think Ramsey of Arsenal - looked out of his depth and horrendous injury a couple of years ago, but has turned himself into a very powerful player. Tom can do the same.

    Good to see I am not alone. Lets see what sort of player he is in a couple of year. Hopefully a good one and with us.

    A player can become strong all of a sudden. Remember how Traore used to be a skinny little thing?

    Another player who is underrated currently is Henry. He's made a couple of mistakes off the ball but has anyone noted that his positioning and off-the-ball play has been excellent in midfield?

    There was a few players that day who got one out of ten not all QPR ... Respect to the Foxes and they may well win it however on the day QPR are the best footballing side in a very poor division ... we just haven't shown it enough. Nice team Leicester and have the points in the bag so well done you have won matches where we have drawn. I don't agree that our strength is Austin like most on here ... he will be a big loss maybe but he doesn't control football matches ... its our midfield which is clearly the strongest in the league and Carroll was beginning to grow in there. a good midfield don't win you matches of course but expect a reaction now as we should have goals in other players now Austin is off the pitch ... we certainly will make plenty of chances.

    You took the points at LR fair play but your goal came from a punt and a brilliant finish.

    Things are working well for the foxes with our plight but I fully expected us to reel you in ... things will be interesting now as Rangers like a challenge

    Seems madness to let Diakite go to Watford if Carrol may get recalled.

    Is that a role that O'Neill could fulfill as he seems rather lost playing out wide....

    Agree. A fit Diakite would be fantastic in the Championship. Just hope he can't play against us when we face Watford in April

    Has Diakite been confirmed to Watford yet?

    O'Neill's real position is CDM.

    "When he is in the team we pass the ball much quicker as he doesn't need 6 touches to bring it under control, he is always available to receive the ball whether from the defence or the other midfielders"
    AGREE
    and he looks for a forward pass.
    NO WAY

    The lack of movement ahead of him is the issue.
    WHY MOVE - HE WON'T PASS IT FORWARDS & GIVE IT TO YOU

    plus he scares me when receives it at the back as he has 2 errors per game that leave the other team one on one.

    Anonymous once again tonight. He's totally unsuited to this league. Its just too tough for him. He can't tackle, rarely passes and just goes missing all the time. Not what you want from a midfield player. Barton was far better than him tonight and would have excelled if he had a sitting player beside, or just behind him, doing some of the cleaning up etc.

    Carroll's been a big disappointment this season IMO.

    It was the most preposterous mom given this season. He was, at best, not too ****.
