Neil Warnock: 'Anton Ferdinand was magnificent'

QPR boss Neil Warnock believes that Anton Ferdinand could play for England after his performance against Spurs.

Queens Park Rangers manager Neil Warnock has said that Anton Ferdinand could play for England after his performance against Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane.

The defender has recently been at the centre of a race row involving Chelsea captain John Terry, but Warnock said that it did not affect him during the 3-1 loss.

"I thought he (Ferdinand) was head and shoulders above everyone else - the man of the match," he said.

"I don't think he made a mistake. He hasn't put a foot wrong since he came here. He definitely has the potential to play at the top level and England.

"Did I think that [the race row] affected Ferdinand today? Not at all. He was absolutely magnificent. It doesn't affect us at all."

The result has left QPR in 12th place in the Premier League table.
