John Eustace: Blackburn Rovers boss says the club are heading in the right direction with fine form

Estimated read time 1 min read

Blackburn’s form is in stark contrast to last season, when the club struggled for form in the Championship and Eustace arrived as replacement for Jon Dahl Tomasson following a run of eight Championship games without victory.

The former Birmingham City boss then kept the club in the division having navigated them to a 19th-place finish, three points clear of the drop zone.

Some canny signings in the summer, including former Rangers midfielder Todd Cantwell and forwards Yuki Ohashi and Makhtar Gueye has transformed their fortunes this term and put them in the frame for a return to the top flight for the first time since their relegation in 2012.

“I know this group is committed and will run through a brick wall for each other. That was proven last season,” Eustace added.

“The way we did that and the way we’ve added to the group now, we’ve added more characters and good honest people.

“The group are believing in ourselves more from the football. We’re a really good footballing team. The goals have proven that since the start of the season.”
