New Peterborough boss Jim Gannon hailed striker Aaron Mclean after he capped his recall to the starting XI with a goal in a 1-0 victory over nine-man QPR.The transfer-listed striker scored his first goal of 2010 with a smart finish at the end of a swift counter-attack, while Rangers had captain Mikele Leigertwood and defender Peter Ramage dismissed in the second half.Gannon, who replaced Mark Cooper to become Peterborough's third manager of the season on Monday, said: "Aaron justified his inclusion, not just with the goal but his overall enthusiasm."I came into the club this week and gave everyone a clean slate and he took his chance well."It was an easy decision for me to bring him back into the team. He has quality, he is a goalscorer and he has won us the game."
