One season wonder though sadly
Kebabs became a staple diet but has got extremely lucrative contracts based on the one and only season he played football.
Fortunately we were the ones that benefitted |  |

A bit like one hit wonder, Rick astley, we`re never going to give him up. |  |

Probably earned most of his money playing reserve team football.
Great for us but now at 31 it seems a sad waste of a career. |  | | |

Sigh Did you have a nap during the Premier League season where his goals and performances in the last few home matches helped keep us up or in the following season when he was the only player putting in consistently good performances untl the manager dropped him |  | | |

yep. Too many expected him to score 20 and assist 20 again in a higher league.
Overall, he was pretty good for us in the Prem, and sometimes very good. |  |

His performance at false 9 vs Chelsea away was a real highlight in a dog shit season |  | | |

Ridiculous comment and a total lack of respect for "Together Forever". |  |

Yes it was superb but unfortunately, the following game he was anonymous. | | | |

Starts week in week out for Benfica.
Ended up having a decent career |  |

Not quite:
2019/20 all first team games Benfica played 53 Adel started 28, subbed off in 8, injured 7 suspended 1, international duty 1. Also 11 yellow cards and one red.
Goals scored ONE, Assists 3. (although he may play a deeper role these days)
So available for 44 started 28.
This season he has started two games and has missed the last three with injury.
He has rescued a career after years of messing about, being unfit and overweight and missing a lot of football. | | | |

Here's the thing, Adel achieved with us, the one thing we'd love to, take QPR to a title winning situation, in 1 season.
However for someone at that level that should have been the start not in reality the end of his true achievements.
Hes got about, earned a fortune no doubt but really relative to what he ought to have achieved he's let himself down more than anything.
However he did have THAT season... |  | | |

Always thought he was one of our better players in the premier league. Thought Hughes actually got him playing well (at home mainly). He was on the left i think of a front three with mackie and helguson | | | |

Just one of the many reasons I have so much contempt for the charlatan called Redknapp. Managed well, as Warnock demonstrated admirably, you had a brilliant, but temperamental asset on your hands who could almost win games single handed if you put the right framework around him.
If you had no man management skills and were just an utter chancer who didn't give a toss other than skimming as much off the top for yourself, then inevitably you had problems. |  |

One season wonder? One of the most talented players in the history of the human race more like it. Never realised it was possible for one player to have such immense ability, a bonafide footballing genius... |  | | |

He was our entry ticket to the Premier league and Warnock, Derry , Hill, Orr etc knew it.
They indulged him in exchange for where he could take them . Ale Faurlin was the perfect foil for him , feeding him the ball time and again . after about 10 mins of a game you could tell if the opposition looked likely to target him , if not it was just a matter of time .
However I tired of him spouting off in every interview about how we were just a stop off point for him on his way to Madrid or Munich , never about what he could achieve with us but (probably prompted by an agent ) what he could do for himself.
The 2 goals away at Cardiff a highlight for me, the Fulham bus stop a low .
A Rangers maverick though for sure . |  | | |
