What kind of player have QPR signed in Conor Washington?





He's a livewire striker who causes problems for defenders for 90 minutes. He's an intelligent runner, a terrific finisher and capable of the spectacular.









He can play in a variety of positions – on his own; in a two; off the shoulder – but where is he at his best?





In my view he is better in a two off the shoulder. It'll be interesting to see what JFH does with him though.









What has been the over-riding reaction from Peterborough fans to this transfer?





Disappointment, because he's our top scorer, in stunning form and he's a good lad too. But with Euro 2016 just round the corner and the Northern Ireland manager watching him, most can understand why he's moved up a division.









Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink believes he ‘has great potential and will score goals at this level’ – from what you’ve seen, would you agree?





Yes I do, but it's worth remembering that Graham Westley is Conor's third manager at Posh, and the only one to get such sparkling form out of him. He's a very talented player, and responds really well to the right coaching and management.









What do you feel Conor can achieve at QPR, working for a manager who himself scored plenty of goals throughout his playing career?





Conor should go on to play international football and play in the Premier League. The kind of goals he's been scoring for us are the kind he can score at any level, he hasn't been reliant on sub-standard opponents. Jimmy Floyd was a terrific striker, so Conor should learn loads from his new manager.
