Derry impressed by QPR new boy Cisse

QPR veteran Shaun Derry admits he has been impressed by Djibril Cisse since his arrival.

The French striker signed for the R's on Tuesday before scoring the opening goal in Wednesday night's 2-2 draw at Aston Villa and his immediate impact has not been lost on midfielder Derry who is also looking forward to seeing ex-Fulham man Bobby Zamora in action.

"Djibril will bring a number of things to the Club you can't help but be impressed by him," he told the club's official website.

"His goalscoring record is there for all to see, and he's off and running already for us, so that's a huge positive.

"He's a danger, with and without the ball, just because of his presence.

"Secondly, he comes with a huge amount of experience.

"It's a major coup for the Football Club, as it was getting Bobby Zamora in as well.

"When guys like these come to the Club, it lifts everybody, just like it did in the last window."
