Remy: Premier League is perfect for me
QPR striker Loic Remy believes he is perfectly suited to playing in the Premier League.
The London club were relegated on Sunday after a goalless draw with Reading, but the France international has briefly impressed at Loftus Road, finding the net five times in 11 games to give them a fighting chance of survival.
Remy's performances have caught the eye, with several top-flight clubs being linked with his signature in the off-season, and the Frenchman insists he is still happy with his decision to leave a title tilt at Marseille for an ultimately unsuccessful relegation scrap.

Real Madrid Vs Borussia Dortmund - Betting Tip
Real Madrid face a daunting task as they look to overturn a 4-1 deficit to Borussia Dortmund in the second leg of their Champions League semifinal, but the Spanish champions will know that Cristiano Ronaldo’s away goal last week gives them a chance of a famous comeback.
Observers were quick to parcel the result at the Westfalenstadion together with Bayern Munich’s 4-0 mauling of Barcelona as a sign of a shifting of power in Europe from Spain to Germany, but it is often dangerous to make such sweeping conclusions.
