Taarabt Interview with the Standard....

[BennyBoyRs]

You are probably right, its just what I would do.

Realistically he is not going to play for those clubs in the next 12-24 months . If he cannot get in Spurs team, then his chances of top teams In Spain are limited.

Hopefully his advisors are doing there job.

I dissagree mate. Granted, Real and Barca are streets ahead of them, but it's a totally different style of football. A style that much better suits the skill and trickery of Taarabt.

Again, I'm not saying he'll be a world beater, but I feel he'll be a far bigger success out in Spain than in England.

Plenty of great players have been the same.

[Tarbie]

I'd say he is young and will find Europe a daunting place, we should buy him, learn his trade and go to Europe in couple of years time.

Trouble is, we have far more teams in this division, like Bolton and Stoke.

He was very hurt by the boos he got earlier in the season when we won, and now is showing some mutual respect by clapping the fans and putting in some very good performances. More of a team player now too.

Did you even read the article Pete? Don't try and turn it on the fans cos a tiny minority gave him some gip early in the season. And as for him signing for us, there is no chance and why would we want him when he chooses to publicly state his dislike for English football?

The interview clearly sums the guy up, what an attitude and what an ego! In one interview he has succesfully mugged off his employers as well as 3 other Premiership sides. Well I hope he doesn't expect the likes of Stoke, Wolves & Bolton to come knocking when he is searching for a new club next January having failed in La Liga.

This is the problem with young players these days, they think they are legends before they've even learned to tie their own shoelaces. He's been given a big contract and had a few journalists (probably back in Morocco) liken him to Zenedine Ziddane and now he's giving it Charlie Big Potatoes.

The boy needs to shut his mouth, knuckle down and actually acheive something before he runs his mouth. I for one hope he does go to Spain cos I've had about enough of seeing Big Time Charlies like him wearing the Hoops!

[Lord Charles]

Love watching the guy play, not many I can say that about.

It will be a loss when he goes, wish we could find a way to keep him.

Oh well, lets sign a serious full back. I'll appreciate good defending but it ain't on the same level of enjoyment as watching a (ok, maybe flawed) real talent.

[Nodge70]

Barcelona, Madrid, Valencia and Sevilla require their players to have discipline, a team ethic and desire. Taarabt, IMO, desperately needs to work on all three to be a success at CCC level, let alone La Liga or even Ligue 1.

Players like Messi, Raul, Casillas, Villa and Torres were first team regulars at 17. Admittedly, they are all special players but if Taarabt hasn't got the message that's been drummed into him by some top top coaches already, I'd doubt he ever will.

Spot on!

He's gonna be another player in the mould of Amr Zaki and Mido. All the talent in the world but let down by an appalling attitude.

[80sCasual]

He may be good, but i think he is getting a bit above himself, he needs a few more years in England to harden him up before he goes to Spain where he expects the top clubs will want him. I'm not saying he should stay with us although it would be nice, but surely Spanish scouts will see his negatives as well as his positives.
Are we also to feel honoured that he is going to try his hardest to help keep us up this year, well shouldn't he be doing that anyway? Strange interview imo.

[hermitage10]

he wont join us on a perm, come from the horses mouth now and its what i hav thought for a long time.

[Chalet1882]

he shouldnt be saying these things again i swear hes got someone telling him to run to the papers as soon as he starts playing well
rember just after (pete, myu if you can find it) the preston reading games he was saying exactly the same things
then last season when he first joined us and played out of his skin simular story also!

i realy wish he would reolise where he is playing and that, yes you are a very talented player but be honest you are championship quality, you could do a job for a prem club
i think clubs like stoke bolton etc wouldnt even look at him because of what comes as a package with taarbt tempremental
i realy want warnock to sign him but someone needs to knock him off his pedastoll and bring him back down to earth

[BuzsakyIsGod]

ARGH!!! What a ****. Bring back Buzsaky in the side and let him rot on the bench.

What an arrogant ****. Makes me so mad.

[WeAreQPR12]

ARGH!!! What a ****. Bring back Buzsaky in the side and let him rot on the bench.

What an arrogant ****. Makes me so mad.

Agree you do have to question his ego.

I don't mind a little attitude in a player but when his own ego is telling him he is world class then I think the club should allow him to move on. Once we are safe I would send him back to Harry.

[W12_Ranger]

ARGH!!! What a ****. Bring back Buzsaky in the side and let him rot on the bench.

What an arrogant ****. Makes me so mad.

Why the player is class, a joy to watch and twice the player Buzsaky will ever be.

Fingers crossed we will get shot of Buzsaky this summer even if Taarabt isn't here.

[Goddard]

He only came to QPR to get away from Spurs, and Harry basically forced him to come here... or rot at THFC.
That was his choice.

This was a "shop window season" for him, and there is no way he'll spend another season in this league.
That's why, despite him being the most talented player I've seen at Loftus Road for about 15 years, I've never truly taken to him.

I saw a text he sent somebody before the first game of the season v Blackpool... he was of the same mindset, even then.

But to be totally honest, even though he's setting his sights a bit high with the likes of Barcelona(!) - I can't say I blame him.
He's not a QPR fan, why should he sign for us and play in the English second division, when he can get a deal in La Liga?

[vblockranger]

too much ego for too little substance.

[BuzsakyIsGod]

I hope we keep Buzsaky. He mostly brins a bit of magic out of nowhere. Buzsaky is a very good player who we must keep.

[W12_Ranger]

I hope we keep Buzsaky. He mostly brins a bit of magic out of nowhere. Buzsaky is a very good player who we must keep.

We don't need him, too difficult to accommodate and not good enough to build a team around.

Time to sell him IMO.
