Morocco's Adel Taarabt makes Premier League dribblers list

Adel Taarabt is involved in a relegation battle with English Premier League side QPR A British football blog which is renowned for its statistical analysis has listed Queens Park Rangers' Moroccan midfielder, Adel Taarabt as the fourth most successful dribbler in the English Premier League. The 23-year old has a success percentage of 55.8 percent, making him a move efficient dribbler than Arsenal's Theo Walcott (52.7 percent), Liverpool's Luis Suárez (37.7 percent) and Chelsea's rising star Eden Hazard who scored a 45.2 success rate.
The blog, 'thepowerof11' also points to the fact that Taarabt has been named Man of the Match on eight occasions during the current season and currently sits fourth on the list of players who have won the award most frequently over the same period.
Moroccan international Taarabt was born in the northern city of Taza in 1989, and began his career at French club Lens in 2006. A year later, he moved to Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League before being loaned to the then English Championship club QPR.
He guided the west London club back to the Premier League with a series of spectacular performances, winning QPR's Player of the Season award in the process.
The versatile midfielder has made 16 appearance for Morocco since 2009, and scored four times.
However, the playmaker's attitude has come into question several times, prompting him to announce his retirement from international football twice.
Taarabt walked out of the national team's training camp in Marakech back in 2011, after being told that he would start on the bench against Algeria.
He recently made his comeback under manager Eric Gerets and scored the winning goal against Tanzania to seal Morocco's qualification for the 2013 African Cup of Nations.
However, weeks before the tournament got underway, Taarabt refused to rejoin his teammates in South Africa, saying that he had decided to remain in England and help Premier League strugglers QPR. He urged Morocco manager Rachid Taoussi to use Turkish club Galatasaray's Nordin Amrabat and Liverpool's Oussama Assaidi in his absence.
The temperamental winger has attracted interest from some of football's biggest clubs, including Manchester United, Arsenal, Paris Saint-Germain, Marseille, Real Madrid and Barcelona.
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger's £7 million bid for the youngster in the recent January winter transfer window was rejected.
