Jack Colback hailed Moussa Sissoko after Newcastle United's win over QPR.
It was Sissoko, "head and shoulders above everyone else" according to manager Alan Pardew, who condemned Rangers to yet another away day defeat by spinning Steven Caulker and crashing a right foot shot past the previously unbeatable Robert Green.
"Moussa can do everything as a midfielder," said Colback. "He's a pleasure to play with.
"If he is struggling in the defensive half, he just wriggles out and gets you up to the edge of the box with his power and pace."
