After experiencing mixed fortunes at Bournemouth and Swansea City last season, Ethan Laird left Manchester United on loan for a fourth time in August, joining QPR.
The right-back, who is a product of United's academy system, swapped Swansea for Bournemouth midway through last season and experienced a torrid time on the injury front, being restricted to just six appearances on the South Coast.
Just two months after arriving at Loftus Road, however, that experience is nothing more than a distant memory for the youngster.
Laird has already made ten appearances for the Championship promotion hopefuls, scored the first senior goal of his career and become a firm fans' favourite.
