Combining club and country duties is nothing new for Massimo Luongo, but the talented Socceroo is now upping the difficulty level.The Queens Park Rangers midfielder is enjoying a strong start to his club season but in a new role.The 23-year-old is being used by coach Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink as a defensive midfielder as opposed to the more attacking position hes become used to with the Socceroos.But hes done it so well, Hasselbaink has given him a nickname.He calls me a little dog, Luongo said.He spoke to me before the first game of the season and said what he likes about me, what got me in the team last year when he came in was my hard work off the ball.He used the word my dogging, my dogging of the ball.Luongo, who won player of the tournament in Australias Asian Cup success last year, is OK with the chummy canine talk.Thats fine as long as he makes it clear to me what he wants from me in a game.Ill do it. And I think Ive been doing it pretty well.Luongo has played every minute in QPRs Championship campaign to date, for three wins in five matches.Its a healthy return and considering the London club is one of the better-resourced sides in the English second-tier, Luongo is satisfied with his efforts.The next stage is bringing attacking flair within his defensive role, or a defensive element when deployed further up the pitch.I want to do both. I want to do everything, he said.What I have learned under Hasselbaink is Ive got to find the right times. I cant force it.Were playing in a tight league, a tough league where points matter rather than performances sometimes.Ive got to find the balance between doing what Im known for and doing what he wants.Then I think it will work best for both worlds.
