i hate newspapers - Taarabt sparks £10m chase

[BuzsakyIsGod]

No he is not, Adel is not bigger than this club, as Charlie Adams wasn't bigger than Blackpool!!

But he is also right about our squad not being good enough.

He is telling it how it is.

Don't know why some posters are having a go at the newspapers. Tabs must be aware by now that when he comes up with this stuff to journalists it is going to be reported, all the more now he is premier league. I know journalists are an easy target but in this case I think they were just doing their job.

i agree stainrod if this is what he actually said or meant, the problem is a big distrust of what we read, no one knows if its ever the truth or absolute bulls@@@

Sure Ricky -
I'm not sure I had much mental strength or discipline at 21 and I certainly didn't have much commitment. Best of luck to anyone who did, but I like many of that age were too busy living each day with spectacular disregard for anything long term. Of course, again like most I settled down after a few years. Good thing too, I couldn't of kept it up and everyone learns lessons in life. Adel will too in his own time.
Problem is when you getting paid 20k (guessing) at that age, you might be forgiven to think your a bit special.

Fair point about the lack of respect, but there's also plenty of times when he's shown utmost respect.
I genuinely think his Agent and the Press take advantage of his talent, youth and limited understanding/use of the english language.

To be fair I don't much like our press
Journo "Adel, have you signed a new contract with QPR yet ?"
Adel "No, not yet"
Journo "Adel, would you say without your goals and assists, QPR might struggle to stay in the Premiership if they don't invest heavily in top quality players ?"
Adel - "Yes, I think maybe"
Journo - "Contract talks between the inspirational midfielder and the club have broken down and the 22-year-old now wants to leave. Worse still, he is tipping Championship winners Rangers for instant relegation."
Throw in a few Shaun Custis like quotes and we have a story.

MAYBE, those well respected coaches don't have the wit or wisdom to handle him or get the best out of him. Warnock did last season and I'll back him to do so again this season, but my argument falls down when Warnock is quoted as saying (somethingl ike) "I hope he scores 10 or 15 goals for us and leaves in January" - I guess he wants to cash in on him when his value is highest.

Please tell what basis you have to support your theory that he will?
I'm no expert, but I can't see anyone else being capable of doing what he's done for us over the last 30 months. He's a different and much improved player from when we first loaned him, I hope that progression continues.

My fact comment was with regard to not many other clubs being interested, which I can assure you is correct. In fact this latest outburst is probably an attempt to drum up that interest by him or his agent.
Agreed, Agent = Leech = Parasite. It happens every Summer and January, so it should be taken with a handful of salt.
Only Lazio, Newcastle & Liverpool have reportedly expressed an interest, unless NW is right and we've received NO offers for any of our players yet (although Legiertwood's gone and that was a week or so ago)


You are right on one thing, good debate
More than one thing mate - good luck

Strange comment.........when the facts showed after 46 games playing against all types of strikers they had the best record out of the 92 professional teams. That is some record. They can't become that bad overnight. They just do their job. They are solid which is what we will need next season.

They gave a few chances per game and they can't afford that in the premiership. Also, when they came up against a premiership standard player like Bellamy, he tore them to streads. I don't think I'm the only one who worries about the back 4 in the prem.

[rangerforevereastcote]

think they deserve a chance
