Right, Blackburn need to sell Benni in Jan. He is causing unrest at the camp, he is lazy. Blackburn where going through last night until he came on the pitch. Sell Benni and Jason Roberts in Jan, we should get 9-10 million for both. Buy in a right back, no offence to Emerton but it isnt his natural position and buy a central midfielder. We have Cruz and Derbyshire for us up front, Bentley can be used upfront also with Emerton on the wing. I know theres not many Rovers fans on here, if any, but i need somewhere to rant about that t1t (McCarthy)

His heart does'nt seem in it. Kinda looks like he played out of his skin last season to get a move in the summer and it did'nt happen so he is having a bit of a sulk. Santa Cruz and Derbyshire look a very good pairing.. You going to the fa cup game capone?? |

Yeah he should have moved in the Summer instead of Hughes holding on to him, McCarthy was pretty much saying to Chelsea come and get him. What's up with Roberts? Santa is firing at the minute though! |

I don't know how Hughes manages to get these top strikers for so little money. He will probably have another up his sleeve if McCarthy leaves in January. |

McCarthy is sulking because he thinks he should be at bigger club. If he carries on playing like he is then i cant see a big club coming in for him. Benni seems to forget its Blackburn that gave him the chance in the prem after so many teams decided not to. Cruz and Derbyshire looked good last night i have been told, i feel sorry for Cruz because he will be wondeing what else he has to do to be on the winning team. He is on fire right now, 5 goals in 2 games. Im not sure what is wrong with Roberts, i think its because he isnt getting much first team action so he wants to leave which is understandle. Like i say, if we sell Benni nd Jason its the defence that needs refreshing. Emerton is a good attacking winger, its a shame he isnt gettinmuch chance at the min because hes playing right back. We are scoring the goals but we are letting way too many in, i thought Hughes would of addressed this problem in training but it doesnt look like it. Anybody who watched the match, can u tell me where Steven Ried played??? |

Yeah, I don't understand it. He was great last year. Maybe you're right he wanted to get himself in the shop window. He did plead for Jose to come and get him, didn't happen, now p'd off. But seeing that attitude who'd want to risk £9/10m on him? |

Aye some players don't show clubs the respect that they deserve and the players are only out for themselves. If you sell both Roberts and McCarthy, what other strikers have you got at Blackburn? I think i'd prefer to keep Bentley out on the wing. I didn't see the match but it must feel good as a Blackburn fan to see his name on the teamsheet again. |

I know, no chance we get 9-10 mill now. If we sold when he wanted to go then we where looking at 12-16 mill i think especialy with Chelsea being linked with him. 9-10 mill for Benni and Jason i reckon, rumours are Sunderland are gonna table a 3.5 mill bid for Roberts. Hopefully 6-7 for t1t, i mean McCarthy |

We have Cruz, Derbyshire. We have Gallagher who we could recall. Bentley could be used upfront if needed. I agree, i would prefer to see him on wing but we have Emerton who could play there. Great to see Reidy back but i heard he was played in wrong position last night |

The played Reid right back last night capone, because Emerton was suspended. He did ok but was a bit lost in that position, not his fault though |

Reid at full back. Is the squad short on numbers?I think selling both strikers might leave Blackburn a bit short still. Not sure how good that Gallagher is. |

Its a shame cause I like McCarthy and always wanted him to join Newcastle. Souness was looking at him years ago for something like 3 mill but it never happened. Sorta glad we didnt get him now |
|
They seek him there, they seek him here, his name is, Joe 'f*cking' Kinnear | |

Oijer is out injured, I think we need to sell them, rebuild in Jan and use rest of season to experiment with the squad. We are not pushing for Europe this year, not with the likes of Pompy and Everton playing so well. No chance we are gonna get relegated either, so i say rebuild, new right back number one priority. Use next 4-5 months to build the squad for next season, i bet you if Benni goes the atmosphere in the camp will be so much better. |
