Take a Bow Adel Taraabt

[stanley75]

Had a great game. Got a wonderful reception as well. Not so impressive was the strop he threw at not getting to take the first penalty which was embarrassing to watch (and went on for 2/3 minutes with a couple clearly telling him to calm down). I assume (though I hope not) that led to him getting the 2nd one. Marred what was otherwise a great day for and from him.

Why did he go off after 75 mins?

I think its case of Neil knowing he is our best player and wanting to conserve his energy as it's a long season ahead and he is likely to figure in most games.

Well done Adel. Keep it up.

He ran the show and was unplayable. Got some rough treatment from their defenders.

NW had some interesting hings to say about Adel after the game - can hear the interviw on BBC website.

I love flair players, I know some at LR prefer a grafter.
