QPR midfielder Adel Taarabt blames the team's poor disciplinary record for their relegation troubles this season.

Queens Park Rangers midfielder Adel Taarabt has claimed that the team's poor disciplinary record is the reason why they are in a relegation battle.

The R's, who are currently 18th in the Premier League table, have picked up six red cards on their return to the top flight.

Despite a positive start to the campaign, Taarabt believes that the dismissals have cost the side important matches.

"I think we have performed at home but we've lost so many points because of red cards," he said. "We've lost so many games, like Norwich and Wolves. We should have won these games, but with 10 men it is difficult."

Rangers host London neighbours Arsenal in the league on Saturday.
