QPR agreed a 12-month loan deal with Chelsea for defender Michael Mancienne in the summer of 2007.
Described by John Gregory as one of 'England and Chelsea's brightest young talents,' the teenage defender - who was an unused substitute for Chelsea in the 2006 Community Shield match versus Liverpool - initially joined the R's in mid-October 2007 on a one month loan deal.
Mancienne was solid as a rock in his first few appearances in the Championship and soon put pen to paper on a deal until the end of the season.
Despite missing the final six fixtures of the season, owing to a facial injury sustained against Preston North End, the popular defender was runner-up in the Supporters' Young Player of the Year category.
Mancienne made 30 appearances in all competitions for the R's last season.
