QPR boss Redknapp orders Taarabt out of defensive walls

QPR boss Harry Redknapp says he's ordered Adel Taarabt to stay out of defensive walls.

Taarabt was at fault in the wall when Shaun Maloney's free-kick flew into the back of the net for Wigan to level last week.

Redknapp, whose team travel to Everton with Zamora missing the first game of a three-match ban, said: "I don't think Adel will be in a wall at Goodison Park!. I've got a feeling about that.

"He didn't duck though. He jumped and then turned his head away. It was a mistake but the free-kick was a bigger mistake.

"To be honest I haven't been able to watch the game again. I couldn't look at it. I usually do but I didn't want to. I've tried to blank it out of my mind."
