Adel Taarabt - Worth a punt?

[Gray]

Very impressed with this player - better than Charlie Adams.

Also is prepared to stay out wide on the left, just what we need & his pass to Wayne Routledge was pure class very Benarbia like in its execution.

he's in the spurs team then?

oh wait no he wasn't good enough for a top club.

Bit unfair mate as he is only 22 years old in May this year, he probably needed time to mature - some players do.

He's only 21 now....

I think it was more his character and personality,rather than his ability,that Twitcher couldn't deal with.

A more than capable squad player imo.

Might be worth a go as back up for Silva but i doubt whether Arry would sell to us.

Do you seriously think we should go for an umproven 21 year old when we're on the verge of a champions league place with unlimited funds.

If he was any good he'd already be in Arsenals academy!!

Too much of an explosive character, definitely not the type of player Mancini likes. If Mancini can't handle Bellamy, Tevez, Adebayor then Taarabt is a no no.

Anyways he is captain at QPR and is indulged by Warnock, something 'Arry wouldn't do. If QPR come up I think he will stay there. He loves it at QPR and last year quit the Morocco International team for 1 year in order to concentrate all efforts on QPR promotion bid.

Although he recently said in an interview he wished he had joined Arsenal and not Tottenham and Chamakh is a very close friend of his, so if he was to leave QPR Arsenal looks more likely.

Just sayin'. ;)

No where near good enough. He blows hot and cold for QPR and is very one footed.

Why is everyone possible "back up for Silva"
