They've been tracking him for a while by all accounts. https://www.lancashiretelegraph.co....future-key-blackburn-rovers-recruitment-plan/ For me, top of the list of players who's performances regressed the most last season. He wasn't a shadow of the player from the season before, and I can't work out why.
Who is Blackburn’s manager? Just checked, it’s Tony Mowbray, but thought he was out of contract or leaving…
Just a local journalist wondering if they will go for him because we've been relegated. I wouldn't worry about him going there. They don't have a manager and when they do and if the new manager wanted him, I don't think they could afford him unless they sell Diaz. If that happens all that money should go towards paying off their huge debts.
If we're trying to raise some cash he's one I'd be happy to see leave, especially if it meant someone more important to us like Morris stayed. If we could get approaching £1m for him it really would feel like Christmas.
We've got Williams who can play on the right (though Williams has played in multiple positions) once he's back from injury and we've got Helliwell signed up. I fully suspect Brittain will be someone we want to offload. Probably not endeared himself with his commentary on managers either.
I hope that based on his previous performances in that position, we play Williams in a back 3 from now on. He's played his best football for us under both Struber and Asbaghi when in a back 3.
I really like Jordan Williams, more than most on here it seems, but he appears to be quite injury prone so not sure we can fully rely on him over the course of a full season. I would love for him to have an injury free season, he’d be a big asset in my opinion.
I agree. But that would mean a new coach plays such a system. We may well be aiming for a fixed formation given our players. Or we may not. I'll be interested to see if anything is mentioned in the media rounds over the next week about our "DNA" and if we're actually going to fix towards something rather than the vague catchall Conway tried to make us all believe.
for me he didn't show anything last season, to merit any interest from a championship club. anything over 500k and I'd drive him there myself.
I didnt mind his comments on managers but he needed to take a look at his own performances stones and glass houses came to mind.
