Well said. Let's cherish his genius while he is with us. And let's hope Hughes starts to pick him and stick with him.
Totally agree Ciarrari. That is a great post mate. Taarabt is a genius with the ball and we have missed his vision greatly this season
Yeh, That pass to Cise was perfection, and though Cisse's finish was not strong enough it gives a good illustration of why when Hughes does get it right and plays Adel and Hoillet, I think we will do better with Cisse than Zamora if there is not room for them both of them. Zamora would never have got close to Adel's pass, he is not quick or fluid enough when we play that kind of attacking football, which is the kind of game we will get most points from. If it doesn't work, or we need to hold and pump up balls, then BZ is better.
Absolutely spot - on. He's the only one who can do it for QPR and his performances can lift the whole team.
No doubt he can change a game - just want to see more of it. After his explosive first 10 mins on the pitch me and my Dad both looked at him at the same time and saw he was absolutely knackered, mainly from running around and chasing the WHU players and trying too hard to make an impression. I've noticed this often with him - he tires ridiculously quickly and then is too knackered to exert the influence he undoubtedly can over the game. Wish he would get fit. Either that or we need to give him a ''free role'' (if we can afford too) so he can save his energy for the attacking moves.
I'm glad people are finally beginning to realise this. I remember being laughed at last season when I suggested Taarabt should start most, if not all, games for us.
Good point Bob ... I personal concede that Adel is maybe not at the fitness levels MH wants and that maybe the problem
Makes my season ticket money worth it on his own. Anyone doubting his ability after that 30mins against West Ham obviously doesn't recognise ability at all.
Spot on. He is QPR to the core. I had problems with him this time last year, when his form and behavior were at their lowest ebb, but soon realized that its players like him that I watch football for, for the moments of magic.
Absolutely. Imo you have to put up with some of the other stuff that comes with him.............all worth it for moments like that goal on Monday for me.
Dt ( and others) if you look at my post outsiders view, you'll see that i praised TARBS to the hilt. He was magnificent in that game. Also i said, that what is more important to me, is how he follows this performance up. His touches were sublime and his vision was superb. I particularly liked the off balance header to Cisse and watched it twice because i could not believe he had done that ! I'm not giving him 5 matches. I said at the start of the season, i would not judge him until we were 10 game in because i assumed that after Mh gave him the No10 shirt, he'd be a regular fixture and we'd really see what he could do. i dont care whether he tracks back & tackles, just want him to perform consistanly for a season, (which he aint done yet)! Please dont compare playing in the Chumpionship against second rate defenders with the prem. Thats just plain silly ! I dont care what he did in a lower league, i just want him to do it on the big stage! Plenty of players can do it at lower level..Jay Booth, Chopra etc springs to mind I really hope he does, but, at the moment, for reasons best known to MH.he hasnt. I'm not gonna judge him yet this season as he hasnt had the chance to show what he's got. For the record...his goal against Wet Spam should be goal of the month.... Just seems the same people are making excuses still for a player that really has done nothing to justify thier undie-ing loyalty to him. I hope he proves you right and me wrong....I REALLY DO Come on ADEL..Put us doubters in our place AND MAKE US PUBLICLY APPOLOGISE........waiting......
