Barton to be captain tonight......there maybe trouble ahead.

[Brockworth_R]

I appreciate the comment bud and I agree, I am carrying a bit of extra timber but, if Im brutally honest with you... i quite enjoy bouncing me boobies when im in the shower. Being slim I wouldnt be able to partake in any such chest-juggling activity and so I think Ima stay a fatty for the time being.

Cheers for your concern though mate, its touching.

[brightonr]

cheers mate for you post, so why we just cant replicate the events of last year, yes derry is a leader but if the captaincy helps Adel deliver more why not just keep thing as they were. if JB wants to shout he can have it.. we just want to get maximum efforts from the players and Adel feels more responsible when he is captain. at least we wait until second part of the season and we will see about it, if JB does something that merit him to be captain I will be the first one to congratulate him, but strip now one of your best player just for sake of it ... it will just make problems.

rockandroll,

Away to Cardiff, he showed this. Away to Hull, he didn't if you recall

I think that you have misunderstood a lot of people on here. Pretty much everybody feels he is a wonderful talent, one of the most skillful players ever to have graced Loftus Road. But they temper their enthusiasm, with the realisation that he still has a lot to learn and has many things which he could improve. Far too early in my opinion to start talking about him as one of our best ever players though, as he has not yet achieved anything at this level so cannot come close. Although having said that, he most certainly has the potential to be one of them. I'm pretty sure we all hope he does and won't be at all upset by it.

RnR, I believe the cultural difference you mention is what is making you see things incorrectly.

The east/west divide that you mention is incorrect.
In The UK, we do remember only too well our legends & failures; we are also sometimes too over passionate.

I don't believe anyone on here is forgetting the importance of Adel; prior to this weekends games, he had more attempts on goal than any other player in The Prem.

As DPR mentioned, Adel seemed very happy with Barton in a leadership roll in that recent interview.

I believe that you're passion for Adel at times does cloud your otherwise great footballing knowledge.

We all see QPR as a team & no 1 player is as important as our team regardless of what they have done or can do.

I have always supported most of your posts on here, so I am sure you know that I am not having a dig at you, but only trying to compensate for the head rush that you seem to be having at present.

Breathe my friend, breathe

not sure RnR see's QPR as a team and i think he is more a Taarabt fan than a QPR fan if im honest.

Hopefully JB will be on free kicks and someone else on corners as well.

Amazing how the wolves are out already for Adel yet only 5 games ago he practically won us promotion to the promise land....

Although I do agree he is getting a hard time considering, but the particular comment by Paul was only regarding set pieces and I have to say I agree. Barton had the most assists by setpieces in the PL last year, its a no brainer for him to be on deliveries, Id have Adel on the edge of the box ready to fire any drop downs into top bins/row Z (depending on whther youre a "glass half full or empty" kinda guy! Me? The former )

What is amazing bozo, is how selective you are at responding to people, because there were others who said stuff, but you pick me and it just shows what a pathetic person you are really.

Did you not see the following, or did you just go straight to my words of wisdom about free kicks ?
Michael229
The right decision in my opinion . We need leadership and passion on the pitch !

Ginger Ninja
Adel ain't gonna like this...tough titties.

80sCasual
He'll be in need of a big pram tonight, with plenty of toys.

Mellowhoop
He doesn't need to be captain. He needs to prove he can play in the prem! he is no longer top dog!

Paul,

No need for those words mate, but you demonstrate your point well otherwise.

As for your original point, his corners and free kicks are awful in comparison to the rest of his talents, so cannot quite see the need to be so critical of your comment, other than your name is Paul Mason and should you have an opinion on Adel, it seems that it is a requirement to make it sound like something it isn't.

Hope he scores twice from a free kick tonight though and SWP heads in from one of his corners, allowing people to aim some more abuse your way.

So do I as it would mean we had 3 more points in the bag, but he would still be lousy at taking set pieces.

[rickyranger]

deja vu my friend, got those kind of replies many times but then at the end I was always right. come back to me later mate.

culturely we are different hence we think different, for us we never forget someone who has done good to us and never we can be so disrespectful towards him/her. but in western culture they see people / players like toys or rejectable items. we are just different.

Thought respect had a big part to play and doesn't that work both ways and is earned. Sorry if I do not respect a player who rarely trains, disrespects his team mates and turned up late for possibly our most important game of the season. GReat talent but even bigger ego that gets in the way

[QPRDUBLIN]

Barton captain confirmed

Correct choice.

[cookie17]

I have a tenner on the skipper to score first at 14-1... its gonna happen!

And the player without which we'd never have got promoted.

Respect his contribution, if nothing else.

[DeepcutHoop]

Taarabt showed a far more mature side tonight. Still the occasional bad decision, but he had a 20 minute spell in the first half where he was magnificent.

The dummy he tried was outrageous, defender did well/got lucky to read it.

[rickyranger]

Thought tonight particularly in the first half he was outstanding, not just in his play but his whole attitude. If that continues he has a very bright future and we have a very influential player. Did'nt think he would change and whilst it is only one game credit where it is due. Well done Adel
