Taarabt says he can save QPR from drop

Adel Taarabt says he can rescue QPR from the drop.

QPR are two points adrift at the bottom of the table after drawing 0-0 at home to Tottenham on Saturday and fellow strugglers Reading came from two goals down to beat West Brom.

"I can play a big part," Taarabt told the London Evening Standard. "I know people think I have a big head, I am not like this but I think I am an important player for this team and if I have a good four months I think we can stay in the Premier League.

"I just play my natural game, the way I've done since I was young. I am the player who can score a goal and win the game for my team. Every time I'm on the pitch, I know I can make things happen.

"All the teams I play against now, know how I play so I try to mix up my game. I play simple and when they think I'm going to play simple, I ­surprise them and dribble and have a shot."
