Club manager reveals what he told ‘confident’ player who joined on loan from Leeds

Tony Mowbray has spoken highly of Leeds United winger Ian Poveda who joined Ewood Park on loan this summer. The Blackburn Rovers boss has suggested that the 21-year-old attacking midfielder has got the ability to “light up” Ewood Park. Poveda, who joined Leeds from Manchester City in January 2020, was given enough exposure by Marcelo Bielsa last season. He made 16 appearances in all competitions for the senior side, including 14 in the Premier League. Bielsa feels that he needs to play regularly and enjoy a solid campaign that will boost his confidence. The youngster was handed his debut by Mowbray last weekend in a 1-1 draw against Middlesbrough at the Riverside. Poveda impressed heavily, providing an assist for Sam Gallagher’s opener in the draw against Boro. Mowbray was full of praise f...

Derby in trouble, Blackburn & Bristol City could struggle

Where there are winners, there must be losers. And, in the Championship, there are three big losers – the three who get relegated. The three coming up from League One are often predicted to struggle, given that they have to adjust to a higher standard of football. Of course, this isn’t always the case, but two of the three relegated sides from last season were newly promoted. Hull City won the League One title last term, so in theory should be the best placed to survive. One thing Hull have in abundance is goalscorers – last season, Josh Magennis, Mallik Wilks, and Keane Lewis-Potter scored 50 league goals between them. If they can translate this form into the second tier, they will give themselves a massive boost in their bid for safety. Can Magennis step up to the Championship? But that ...

Fulham and West Brom stars tipped to shine in the Championship

While the ultimate goal of the Championship season is promotion to the Premier League, the Golden Boot race is always an interesting sub-plot. Expect this season to be no different, with a number of proven goalscorers looking to make their mark once again. The current leading candidate appears to be Fulham’s Aleksandar Mitrovic, and it’s not particularly difficult to see why. He is the only player in the second tier who already has a Championship Golden Boot to his name, having hit 26 back in the 2019/20 season. Mitrovic has a fantastic record in the Championship Last season wasn’t an easy one for the Serbian, scoring just three league goals in 27 outings. However, his record in the Championship with Fulham is nothing short of excellent, bagging 36 in 57 for the Whites. The most likely to ...
