Defender Isla feeling settled at QPR

Mauricio Isla is gradually starting to feel more settled at Queens Park Rangers. The Chile international full-back has moved to Loftus Road on a season-long loan from Juventus.

He told QPR's official website: "I still feel that I have to keep working.

"I took a holiday after the World Cup and you can see the difference when you compare yourself to the guys who never went to the Finals.

"Against Sunderland I felt really good. The game against Tottenham I was very tired and didn't feel as if I prepared properly physically during the summer with Juventus.

"On Saturday though I was much happier as I felt very good physically and that I'm starting to find the level required.

"Right now I have to get to know my team-mates better in terms of their movements on the pitch and how they play but right now I feel really good."
