The spirit in this side is unbelievable. Great result. What a pass from Rothwell to Bennett for the goal.Cant wait to see Rothwell and Dack in the same side.

Need a striker in asap

Hope Smallwood proves Mowbray right but another bad performance today and surely that will see Smallwood on the bench in the next game

It makes me sad when I go to ewood and Dack's not playing We need Rothwell and Palmer to step up to the mark The line up and bench show how badly additions are needed, Sharpe suggests 2 coming in and that was sticking his neck on the line.2 isn't enough

Obviously Mowbray doesn't think Graham able to start two games in a week. Nuttall has his chance it's up to him to play his way into Mowbray's plans

Lol

If Dack and Armstrong are out it will be hard to judge.Armstrong already out but if Dack plays we will find out a bit about ourselves today as they are a decent side.Their top scorer is suspended

You would imagine we might get one in on loan on top of Brereton, if Armstrong is out for any length of time and even Samuel who isn't quite good enough but still we have lost another body unless Nuttall not going on loan now Just seen Sharpe say he reckons 2 in before the deadline so maybe Brererton will be the only attacker brought in as aren't we rumoured to be signing Reed aswell? I mean I don't think Reed would be a bad signing but we're shorter in attack than midfield .Altho I do think Reed would be Mowbray's choice to start in midfield

If this is true about Brereton you would imagine the hold up is over how much of a percentage in the sell on clause. If as they say he is rated at Forest then you would imagine they are wanting a healthy slice and probably a load of other clauses based around number of goals he gets, if we get promoted, possible England call up etc. In one way that's good at least it shows he is highly thought of.But Venkys are probably only allowing this deal as they are looking at making a profit and the more expensive it gets less chance of a profit.One good season and you are talking double on 6 already one exceptional season and wouldn't be far off 20 million, fee's are only going 1 way and that's up.

Their top scorer is suspended. Been involved in 8 of their goals, scoring 5 assisting 3.Big miss for them but like you say be much more of a chance of 3 points with Dack and Palmer in the side

You seem to have forgotten Rodwell.Be England captain in a couple of years in my opinion

At least a two week break after Bristol city next Sunday, If we do make any signings at least they will have a couple of weeks to bed in

If an unnamed premier league club would have paid that they are hardly going to be accepting less from us are they.They will just wait until January and sell him to that club surely. If the post story has any truth to it then if we did have any interest surely it died a long time ago surely we wouldn't be spending 10 million on him and we shouldn't either unless a couple more are coming into can't be spending on a cherry when we haven't bought the cake

I want to see Rothwell in centre mid at home anyway.If Dack is fit tomorrow I would pair him with Evans and leave Bennett where he is if Mowbray is going with 2 dm then I would drop Smallwood and play Bennett in midfield but I think Rothwell would be excellent driving forward bringing Dack into play everytime the ball comes near Smallwood at minute it's like a hot potato in the palm of his hand

Are you starting the bring back kaba Diawara campaign or am I?

Amen brother

Doesn't matter what we think he won't be Mowbray's choice to play in centre midfield he isn't first choice there now and if we are bringing in Reed and Davenport gets fit he will be further away in Mowbray's mind plus Mowbray has said a few times he likes to Bennett wide of the three.I agree with you though he should play there more often if he will do it For what it's worth Nixon said earlier that the reed deal had hit issues so May be it was never happening in the first place or the phone is permanently engaged in India

UpWould really love to see Rothwell start in the middle of the park tomorrow. Doubt Tony will be brave enough though.Think we will see Smallwood again, I hope he puts in a better performance than the other night. If there was one player I wanted to make the step up it was Smallwood.Last season I was a bit meh when he signed but to be fair to him certainly at the start of the season he was excellent. So far he hasn't looked great though, it's still early days but the fact he stood out for Rotheram when they were in league 1 but the next season in the championship he ended up getting sent back to league one is a worry If he doesn't start Rothwell beside Evans then I hope he will play him in the middle of the 3 if Dack isnt fit.Was very impressed with Rothwell the other night he does look a player. Be interesting to have a look at Davenport too when he gets fit had a good spell at Burton last season and in fairness you don't last at a big club like city till your that age if you have nothing about you teams like city, Chelsea etc have the cream of the crop and just because you don't make the grade there doesn't mean you can't be a quality championship player If Reed happens we are going to have another midfielder so 4 defensive types so just don't see Mowbray wanting to play Rothwell back in midfield

BBC Lancashire Sport (@BBCLancsSport) Tweeted: "It's time to press the restart button on his career" #Blackburn head coach Tony Mowbray on the arrival of Jack Rodwell. #Rovers #bbclancssport #bbcfootball https://t.co/nWYB8Jtdie

After missing out on Harrison Reed and all our other top targets he is negotiating with West Bromwich to bring back wonderkid Rekeem Harper

In talks with Fleetwood. We have enough of his type anyway Dack,Palmer or Rothwell play in the position he will want to play

Even more stupid is this loan to buy thing, in essence it's a permanent transfer. The efl should have just kept their window open till August 31st or close the whole thing on the 9th

If Nixon is correct and another team has come in for Brereton it's just going to make it even more complicated and most likely make it drag on till Friday.

I think Brereton is a talent Chaddy but I'm hoping it's not going to be too expensive.5 or 6 million yeah I'd definitely take him even maybe a deal rising to 8, any more than that and surely we could have found better value. I will back Mowbray's decision though but really hope there is nothing in this Sylla link. Wish I could just fast forward to next Friday to be honest,see what squad we have and focus on the football.

No I only seen someone say it on here and on Twitter. I would take what he says with a huge pinch of salt, he said Freeman was having a medical on deadline day
