QPR defender Anton Ferdinand says tomorrow's game with Stoke City is the biggest of his career.

Hoops head into tomorrow's clash above the relegation zone on goal difference - and on the back of a 6-1 thrashing against Chelsea.

Centre-back Ferdinand said: "We're professionals, it's important to get that loss out of our system.

"It's vitally important we're ready for the biggest game of our lives, as that's what this is.

"It doesn't just affect players. It affects fans and it affects people that work at the club.

"There's a lot riding on us staying up, we know that. We've got to show that this shirt means everything to us."
