Norwich City boss Paul Lambert was delighted with Daniel Ayala's performance in victory at QPR.
The return to fitness of Ayala, signed from Liverpool, after a knee injury has come as a timely boost.
"Daniel was outstanding again. For someone of just 21 years of age he was terrific on the ball and hopefully he keeps progressing at this club and has a great future," said the Norwich manager.
"We have [defender] Elliott Ward and [striker] James Vaughan to come back as well and that should make us even that bit stronger."
