Today McLean and DW are doing the press conference...yep

Lots of positive talk from Mclean, but apparently DW has said that McLean will be played as a central defender under him in the near future (so I guess that will mean no new left footed defender and a youth player progress blocked because DW wants McLean there). McLean says he would rather not and would rather play in midfielder.

DW:

Gibson is back

Barnes is struggling as he is fatigued (I wonder why). He should be there on the weekend though.

Duffy back in training before Rotherham game.

Sargent will get a long break during the international break.

DW says that McLean is the best midfielder in the league

DW talks about how dangerous Sammy Szmodics is and we have to watch him
 
So Mclean is the best midfielder in the leaue according to DW but shifts him back to defence which McLean doesnt want - what bloody logic is that - desperation punishment or tinkering to rest the defenders?
 
Blackburn has a new manager, and my confidence around this game has dipped. Also, I can't see our defence keeping Sammy Szmodics quiet.
