Man Of The Match Poll - QPR v Arsenal A very hard Man Of The Match this week as everyone contributed to an amazing victory over Arsenal, I'm glad to say we stopped Arsenal from getting their 8 consecutive win with an outstanding performance from all, personally my vote goes to Taiwo for his solid defending. Post your choice and reasons below, voting closes in 1 day.
Very difficult choice, no one was bad, Taarabt looked like his old self good goal, some great passing, Diakite, Taiwo took big steps up in performance, showed some real quality, but Zamora was outstanding, led by example, physical, rarely lost control of the ball, set the tone for the whole performance.
Zamora for me , without him it would have been one way traffic, and no out ball for the defence, paved the way for us to score, ran their defence ragged
Everyone was superb and I especially loved the fact that they were all talking to each other. Zamora just about gets it from 10 other very fine performances.
I went for Taarabt, but could easily have singled out Zamora, Mackie, Taiwo, Derry and Diakite, all of whom were superb today. Also, special mention for Barton - best I've seen him in an Rs shirt, I think. Really up for it today.
Diakite for making 60 mins without committing a foul, aswell as being so relaxed and scoring a great goal
Lets have a bit of praise for Joey. He was dropped and has come back stronger. We criticize him when he deserves it, now lets give him the credit he deserves for today. IMHO he was excellent.
Hard to pick out one individual, they were all outstanding, so I'll go with Mark Hughes, a) for his game plan and b) really getting the players up for it. This is the first time in a while that we actually started strongly rather than starting poorly and reacting after going behind. I'm just glad that Stoke isn't our next game, or a team we're 'expected' to beat. Bring on Man U!!!!
Samba Diakite for me. The guy's a real engine room. Excites as much going forward as assures in defence. Sure there's still that slight level of naivety but boy, is he learning fast. What a cracking goal. Starting to look every inch the Viera we'd been hoping he'd turn out to be. Very impressed with Taiwo's performance also.
Diakite, Taiwo and Taarabt combined very well and Zamora did the hold-up business very well for a change. Diakite for me.
Everyone was superb today....well done Joey too!! I could have gone for Zamora, Taiwo, Diakite or a one or two others...but, rather predictably I suppose....it has to be Adel.....he was superb (still not sure he'll cut it at this level Swords?!!).
No one was bad today. Even Barton was really good. I've voted for Hill. He threw himself into some hefty situation on the field today. Was really impressed with Taiwo, too.
Really difficult but I would go Zamora (outstanding job) closely followed by Taarabt (brilliant best), Diakite (class act), Derry (never knows when to give up), Kenny(match winning saves) & Mackie (he never gave up and showed what a handful he is on the 2nd goal)
No one else gone for him but Antonio Ferdiband for me. Kept RVP quiet. Nuff said really. He has taken way too much stick recently. Taiwo was also excellent today.
Well done also to Mark Hughes. Brought Barton back at exactly the right time and his tactics today were absolutely spot on. There were eleven amazing performances today. Special mention to Kenny for denying v Persie when a goal against would have have been a real sucker punch. Diakite looks a star now he has calmed down and Taarabt was at somewhere near his mercurial best. For my money though Adel was still a little too wasteful of possession but I am delighted he has his Premier goal, six more please before the end of the season. The defence was the best we have seen it but a few clean sheets are required on the run in. My vote however went to Zamora who really roughed up their centre halves. He led the line on his own and made himself the first line of defence. Huge effort and not surprising Hughes brought him off before the end. His best performance yet in a hoops shirt and one of the guys who really can be the difference in us staying up or going down. Massive win today, well done Sparky. Come on you RRRRRRRssssssss
Hard to give it to any one and agree with all that has been said. I've gone with JB just because if the extra pressure he was playing with and the scrutiny he knew he would be under. Top performance from all!
Difficult one, but for me Zamora. Was crucial to the win and allowing us to get some attacking moves going. Also won us countless free kicks to get us higher up the field. Superb.
