Blackburn manager Valerien Ismael expects Moussa Baradji to make his debut after the next international break in November.

 

Note that he doesn't state just how much "after" the November break, so that statement covers any date until the end of the season 😉 

Until the end of time, in fact. And I'm still dubious!

Wow!..Maybe, it's just me, but didn't he only come alive for 15/20 min?

Looks like it's done on stats, can only assume he had better stats than any other forward.

Hope he gets in again on Saturday.

Who scored thought he was brilliant...

Looking at the stats breakdown it seems to be because of his goals, key passes and "Aeriels Won". Which is weird as I wasn't that impressed with him in the air. Stats eh..

[roversfan99]

Miller 2nd and Wharton 6th above Toth down in 8th.

Yeah, pointless.

Aye, I suppose that's the thing with stats.You can take them or leave them, but there are no preconceptions or favouritism involved, just the same criteria across every team.

Weird how these stats and ratings have come about.

Toth made 2 excellent, match winning saves and yet he only got 6.8/10?

Tough game, but Leicester are faltering at the moment, so there's always a chance.

Not sure I'd change the starting XI, although if Cantwell is fit then I suspect Ismael brings him back into the team simply due to him being captain.

The optimist in me says 1-1 or 0-1 to Rovers. The pessimist says 3-0 to Leicester.

Ticket sales looking non existent for this unlike the last couple of times.

It's no wonder we get stick, if we were in 8th position there'd be a thousand plus there despite the time/price.

We used to be good at supporting the team when we were shit but Gestede and co seem to have managed to ruin that now.

[roversfan99]

Fans are as disengaged as ever after having the piss out of us by the owners and board, struggling, dinner time kick off on sky.

Our fanbase doesnt deserve stick for a potentially lower than usual turn out away at Leicesrer.

[chaddyrovers]

How many have we sold?

my team 

                    Toth

      Miller Wharton McLoughlin

Alebiosu Montgomery TGH De Neve 

                   Morishita  

           Ohashi  Gudjohnsen 

Big shout dropping Tronstad. But it’s hard to argue with it on current form. I’d still start with him and bring Montgomery on if it doesn’t start well.

Thought Mori was quite poor against Southampton and missed a very presentable chance.

If Cantwell is fit to play, he starts.
