We made them a star

[Pal]

Following on from the 'gone on to better things' thread, and to scotch the thinking that we ruin everyone who steps through the door, can you name people whose career had stalled until they came here, either on loan or perm?

I'll start;
Andros Townsend
Danny Simpson
Kyle Walker

[Shepherds Mush]

Charlie Austin got into the England squad because of us....

[West Acton]

Adel then he faded away

[MattyRangers]

I'll go Clint Hill.

Bang average Palace player, never played above the 2nd tier - with us won the league, had a few seasons in the PL and won (our) POTY at least once (maybe twice if my memory serves me correctly) in the PL.

[Shepherds Mush]

Paul Parker

[Kevin Mcleod]

Phil Parkes
Said Les
Clive Allen

[Rangers77]

The Dundee legend that is Steven Caulker.......

[cross it Dave]

Stan and Rodney

[Hitman34]

bright, we have not made him a star yet, but he is driving around like one.

[RobertoQPR]

Wayne Routledge. Twice I reckon as well

[Kevin Mcleod]

bright, we have not made him a star yet, but he is driving around like one.

250 quid a month that whip on lease mate.

[stanistheman]

Depends on what is meant by a star, but there have been a number of players that improved after joining QPR and went on to bigger clubs and international football.

You can add the following to those already mentioned,

Terry Fenwick
David Seaman
Andy Sinton
Trevor Sinclair

[cross it Dave]

Phil Parkes, Dave Clement, Ian Gillard and Dave Thomas

Phil Parkes, Dave Clement, Ian Gillard and Dave Thomas

Don't forget Don Masson and Don Givens, plus a new lease of life to Frank McLintock, David Webb and John Hollins.

Sterling to a degree...

Chaz for sure, injuries have hampered him. Infact i think in our awful last season in the prem, he was the best striker in the league, how he scored so much in that team was astonishing.

Sinclair, Clement, Parkes, Ferdinand, Wilkins, Walker, Gallen, Routledge, Taarabt (World at his feet but he threw it away not the club), infact most of the 2011 team....long list

The other thread was based on the post Warnock TF era though. So just Chaz for me, and Simpson.
