How highly do you rate adel taarabt?

Probably deserves a bigger club. Just too quick

I love watching him dribble as he's just sublime at it, a bit of a ball hog/ego issues though which I think is his biggest barrier in going to a bigger club.

Although if I remember correctly he was headed towards PSG before the season starts but I'm not sure why it didn't go through.

Probably ruined his career with his arrogance. Would of been a decent player if he didn't think he was bigger than the club (QPR).

he is only blazing on youtube.

@Iszanto, Leonardo killed the move when he arrived. taarabt is a player the Qatari owners wanted, to create the arab connection to PSG. but Leonardo smelled bust

Been absolutely shite all season and after one decent performance gets a thread?

Its hard to say, this season is still incomplete and its a jump from the Championship to the EPL. His stats were ascending which is a good thing. If he doesn't sign a new contract and someone swoops in the summer for >5m it could be worth a gamble.

The records sets it straight.

Don't even rate him, true he has got more lollipops than Gary Glitter but isn't proven in the big leagues plus his attitude stinks. Maybe he will come good but currently over-rated.

Reminds me of that Geovani guy who was at Hull city a couple of seasons ago.

who remembers a Mexican named Nery Castillo or an Egyptian named Mohammed Zidan?

Thats where this guy is heading unless he turns his attitude around.

His evolution from dribbling winger to ball recovering DM is one of the more interesting positional switches in recent memory.

Yea hard to believe it. Arsene transitioned Cazorla the same way too. It feels like players who are naturally great at dribbling can actually work as DMs

He lost 90% of his speed and explosiveness. He really had no choice but to adjust to a new role, and he seems to have done it very well.

I’m glad he woke up and got his career back on track.

that's crazy to even imagine just also based on the type of player he was... freestyling, arrogant - usually that's the antithesis of a DM
