Queens Park Rangers boss Mark Hughes has praised Bobby Zamora after the England striker completed his move to Loftus Road on tonight.

Zamora, 31, will not be eligible to face Aston Villa on Wednesday evening, but Hughes admitted that he can be the difference for his side this season.

"Bobby is a guy that makes things happen on the pitch, be it scoring goals or creating chances for others. He's a great foil for any team," Hughes told the club's official website.

"We needed a player of his ilk at the Football Club and I couldn't be more delighted. He was the difference for us at Fulham last season. He came back from injury and he made such an impact in the second half of the campaign.

"He's got great power and pace and his technical ability is top class. He's got an excellent left foot."

Zamora could make his debut against Wolves on Saturday.
