Ledesma is set to flourish - Hall

Hall scored his first ever goal for QPR against Barnsley

QPR centre-back Fitz Hall has tipped summer signing Emmanuel Ledesma to flourish in the Championship.

Hall, who scored twice in the 2-1 opening-day win against Barnsley, says Ledesma will not be overawed by the physical nature of the division.

"We were worried he might get a few kicks in the Championship but he dealt with that," Hall told BBC London.

"From day one when he came into training there were little cheeky nutmegs and stuff like that."

The 20-year-old Argentinian, who is on loan from Italian side Genoa, produced the free-kick that led to Hall's first goal against Barnsley, a game in which Real Madrid loanee Daniel Parejo was also handed his debut.

Ledesma was praised for his performance and ability at set-pieces but Hall said the club are prepared for their foreign imports to struggle at times this season.

"If you come to a new club it's going to be a change. I'm sure they'll need time to settle in but the players are here to help them do that," said Hall.
