I know I'll get stick for this as we all enjoy the result but I'm getting more than a little tired of his antics. once again he storms off after getting subbed( justifiably so imo) some of his passes were poor. yes he did create openings and was kicked to bits but derry didn't strop when he came off so why should he? ok rant over.
Inky, I'm still of the mindset that this lad just needs one goal to get his mojo going again. He did some good stuff today. Yes, the strop he pulls is doing him no good - who would buy the lad if he keeps that stuff up? All he needs is one of his trademark curlers from outside the box to get things going again. By the way, having said all of that in favour of AT, I still would not like to have seen him take the penno!!
I think actually I would have liked to have seen HH go off for Betty who would have held on to the ball more and made better use of the space.
Taarabt should never have come off. The space that was opening up for him after the sendings off was a godsend. He was looking more influential and the last half an hour could have kickstarted his season. Was a real negative substitution by NW looking to defend what we had rather than kill the game with a second. Tarbs has acted a bit of a pillock this season but i really felt for him today
QPR boss blasts Taarabt after Chelsea win - QPR FC - Sport - Fulham Chronicle NEIL Warnock slammed Adel Taarabt after the QPR forward reacted angrily to being substituted in this afternoon's victory over Chelsea. The Moroccan stormed off down the tunnel after he was replaced by Tommy Smith on the hour mark. And boss Warnock says he's disappointed with Taarabt's behaviour. He said: “I had a chat with him afterwards because it's not about Adel, it's about the team. “He was disappointed to come off, but like I said to him beforehand it would've been easy for me to play Jamie Mackie today and leave him on the bench. It's a team game. “He's a little kid and takes his toys home.” Follow us on Facebookand Twitterfor the latest QPR news.
He was bad today in the first half,nothing really came off for him,except the pass which ended up with Bosingwa getting sent off.However he started the 2nd half much better and was just starting to look threatening when Neil took him off.He badly needs a big confidence boost,but his sulking and disssent is getting ridiculous now,and as much as i love him i really think Neil is going to get rid of him come January.
Why was there such an argument over who took the pen? Surely these things are decided beforehand? And to be honest, I would have preferred Adel to have taken it. HH nearly missed it!!
They shared the pens between them last season with neither of them missing one.You would of thought they would have a designated pen taker before the game,but with the free kick debacle against Villa who knows.I was just glad Barton didn't take it!
he was still giving out to nw when he came back on after the final whistle! yes he can be unplayable at times he def got us promoted last season and for that I'll be forever grateful but ffs less of the antics please!! what'll happen is he'll get benched and won't feature at all then everybody loses.
Agreed , when i see him storm off down the tunnel my thoughts were keep on walking and don't come back. It was the right sub to make at the time. The Chelsea full backs were getting the ball too easy and mackie was bought on to try and stop that. I did see that adel was on the bench near then end so he did come back out. Too much petulance for me but he has got the capacity to unlock the defence with one pass. The ball through to SWP was first class where bosingwa got sent off, big turning point and potentially the moment where we won the 3 points. We need his flair but not his attitude, its a toughie for Neil.
Im surprised Adel was actually able to walk off the pitch with he number of late challenges and fouls on him. NW did him and us a favour by taking him off and getting him more wound up for the Spurs game
Sorry, I know I pay homage to the guy with my username, but the boy is a right pr*t IMO.. He has no sense of how much bigger and important the occasion was than him. That result meant more to the club and the fans then pretty much any other game in the last decade and a half, and all he can do is throw his toys out of the pram because he's not the centre of attention. The truth is that so far he's failed to live up to his billing in this league, and rather than thinking "oh, I better start working harder to become a better player", instead he just throws a petulant strop. The guy needs to keep his mouth shut, knuckle down and put in some decent performances.
Ninj is right. NW was protecting him from the challenges to make sure he stays fit for the Spurs game for which he will be well up as SWP was yesterday. I do think Taraabt's through ball to SWP needs another mention as it was a superb ball worthy of any permiership game and which led to the first red. Very classy move. Roll on Sunday. Colin v 'Arry! Beginning to get excited already.
