QPR defender Gabbidon: Ferdinand form affected by Terry controversy

QPR defender Danny Gabbidon feels teammate Anton Ferdinand is now over his controversy with Chelsea captain John Terry.

Gabbidon believes the Terry furore originally had a negative impact on his performances.

"When it first happened, the first few games after that he wasn't himself but he realises now he's come back and he will want to put in a good performance," he said.

"We didn't talk about it too much [after it happened].

"You try to get on with things as quickly as possible and you don't want to keep bringing it up too much to him.

"We were all upset for him but we tried to move on quickly."
