FAO The Morrocan

[Shania]

At times his steppovers are also a bit predictable.

I hope The Morrocan does stick another Taarabt video on here - I like watching them, rare bit of guile and skill not often seen in our team.

[Olly]

JB and BZ both have one thing in common, they're not goal-getters and rarely near scoring chance crosses, which is something else we don't do very well either, apart from AT who's brilliant at getting them in.

[QPRICO]

any video is good enough for me

Please keep posting them Moroccan, I enjoy anything qpr

[qprbrisbanedivision]

OP was a bit harsh?!

It seems the posts are always about tarbs and not QPR. i would be intrested to know if there are any more marrocan players in our leagues and if "the Morrocan" post on thier sites? Or are you a rangers fan Morrocan?

Genuine question?

[QPRICO]

Please don't bore us with another one of your Taarabt videos this week.

It doesn't matter how silky his skills are if there's zero end product.

Thanks

Not what i expect from a mod tbf

[Dale]

Yeah, keep them coming

[The Moroccan]

Enjoy it
Remind me of an away game where Adel was shining !! this is something you need to know.
plus when you dont have a great striker the rest will look so bad because you will receive goals and you couldn't do anything back. If Zamora had translated all these passes he got from Adel and others we would never fight to avoid relegation.
I am fan of "Ben" not Adel

If Zamora had translated all these passes he got from Adel and others we would never fight to avoid relegation.

And if Adel had passed and MOVED a bit more Zamora wouldn't have been so isolated (having to contend alone with 3 defenders) - still a big flaw in his game.

ANYWAY, apologies for the original post. It was said in the heat of the moment after yet another frustrating Adel performance in which he shows so much promise and natural ability yet was still found wanting.

No problem.

There are games when we play so offensively but there is'nt a good striker there, Adel has to be back to defend and help Taiwo and that is something Adel didnt do last season even though he's not good in that role. you want Adel upfront helping Zamora so you have to push Taiwo up.

If you play 4-5-1 it's vital that the wide midfielders support the striker when we have possession, otherwise that formation won't work.

There were at least two glaring moments in the game when Adel made a great pass forward and then just stood there admiring it without running up in support. Zamora then had no one to lay it off to and was surrounded by 3 defenders, so inevitably we conceded possession again. Taiwo would have supported Adel if he had run because that is one of the full-back's duties.

Taarabt has many good qualities to his game, but this is one of his weaknesses. The other is not releasing the ball early enough when a team-mate is in a better position.

If he could iron out these weaknesses, he COULD go on to be a truly world class player.

It's up to him.

[The Moroccan]

I am not saying Adel is a perfect player, we all know his weakness but let me tell you that he is the only one there being able to hold the ball while many other just try to get rid of it as soon as possible which is the cause behind wrong passes.. Adel will not do everything , you need a talented number "10" and great midfielders so zamora could have an impact .. Adel is only a winger and he delivered such great passes in recent games but as I said we need a great number 9 there.
by the way Adel is being criticized a lot by Moroccans though, he is skillful yeah and that is why you will easily find his videos rather than Derry or Barton ones.
and yes it s up to him.

Zamora is one of the best players in the country at holding the ball up with his back to goal, but he's fighting a losing battle in a 4-5-1 if his offensive midfielders don't support him, not just Adel, the other 3 also. You're right, Adel is our only player who can consistently beat his man from a standing start. For that reason he is indispensable to us. Cisse, Diakite, and Traore can also do it but only when they're running with the ball using their strength and momentum (Mackie too, but not consistently enough). That's the reason why Adel is so good at holding the ball, but crucially, he still has to learn when to keep it and when to pass it.
