NEIL Warnock insists Adel Taarabt still has a part to play at QPR.

The Moroccan star is expected to leave Loftus Road in January, with Serie A side Napoli monitoring his situation.

Taarabt has failed to even make Rangers' bench in recent weeks, but made an impressive cameo in Sunday's defeat against Manchester United.

And his boss says the 22-year-old could still feature over the festive period.

Warnock said: “I thought he did all right when he came on.

“Adel's got something different and you've got to use all your tools at this level to try and get results.”
