Appleton wants four more signings at Blackburn Rovers
10:00am Saturday 9th February 2013 in Sport
By Andy Cryer, Blackburn Rovers reporter
MICHAEL Appleton has asked owners Venky’s to deliver him four more signings next week – after yesterday securing deals for DJ Campbell and Lee Williamson.
Striker Campbell signed a three-month loan deal from QPR, with the view of making the move permanent in the summer, while free agent midfielder Williamson joined until the summer of 2014.
Campbell goes straight into this afternoon’s squad for the visit of Ipswich, but Williamson misses out through illness, and boss Appleton insists his transfer business is still far from done.
His move for West Brom winger Jerome Thomas looks dead in the water, after Baggies boss Steve Clarke said no players would be leaving, but the Rovers chief has given his bosses the names offour players he wants. He has admitted former Rovers midfielder David Bentley is a player he would be interested in, although it is unknown whether he is one of the names given to Venky’s.
With Gael Givet still potentially leaving the club on loan, Appleton could be targeting two more defenders as well as strengthening in the wide area, and admits there could then be more loan departures.
He said: “I have given the owners four names I am desperate to bring to the football club on top of DJ and Lee and I will wait for either the green light or the red light.
“I walked in here and the balance of the squad was all over the place, in my opinion. We had a lot of number 10s, too many number 10s.
“I am trying to address the balance of the squad as quickly as I possibly can. Obviously quite a few players left on loan on deadline day and all we are doing with the numbers is re-addressing that.
“If we do get to re-address that by bringing players in then there will probably be some who won’t get any football between now and the end of the season and they might have to go out and get loan moves.
“We certainly need a defender, depending what happens with Gael and whether he is happy with the limited amount of football he has had this year, we might need two to make sure we can address the situation if we have injuries.
“Hopefully we will be very, very competitive very soon. David Dunn is a week away, Leon Best is back in training, Dickson (Etuhu) has trained, and Adam Henley is a week away.”
Campbell’s addition strengthens the competition for places in Rovers attack, with Jordan Rhodes, Colin-Kazim Richards and Best.
“It is important you get your front players right DJ brings something different. He is obviously a goal scorer like Jordan but sometimes you need an extra one, as in playing up top with three, or coming off the bench to ignite you in a game and that is what we have now.
“You take Jordan out of it and maybe there have been questions about who is going to step up to the plate and score you goals, that is why it is important we got DJ in, he is a proven goalscorer.
“We have to make sure we get the balance right and that I make sure I pick the right team for the right games, bearing in mind there are that many games coming up. It will enable me to freshen things up.
“It is definitely with a view to permanent signing. We haven’t just brought him in to be loan we have brought him in to be here for the next two or three years.”

After being stiffed by so mamy people on poor signings lets hope the Rao's can still believe in him and back him with more signings. After such appalling behaviour they experienced last visit lets just hope they still have the resolve to carry on spending and the ambition to correct their previous errors and naivety.
How Kean and Singh could create such imbalance is worthy of serious investigation. I wonder now if Singh had totally lost the confidence of Desai but how Shaw and Agnew have managed to win their backing is also impressive and cannot have been easy.

I hope that he continues to bring in quality and not just players to make up the numbers.
Early signs are good.
DJ Campbell has plenty of experience at this level,
Jerome Thomas / David Bentley are also the sort of players we need on the right.

I fear it is too late and too much to expect to make the play off's but we have to go for it.
We should not consider Appy a failure if we don't make it but the players that he has inherited should now be breaking their b*lls to get us into the play offs but some teams will need to drop off and have a poor run to help us make it.

It's crazy to think how much stick this lad had when he was brought to the club. Bowyer did a fantastic job and, after just four games, was going to be a hard act to follow. I think Appleton has shown that he was the right choice. For someone so young, in terms of Managers, he certainly seems to know what he's doing.

Gerrard , Walcott,Vidic and Pique in at Rovers = fantasy .
But Hendry out , what wrong with that ?
Why is Hendry who is Keans drinking pal still here ?
He was hired by Kean and Singh at a reputed 8,000 pounds a week and given the title "defensive coach" but in reality all he was ,was Keans Chauffeur when Kean lost his driving licence , Hendry has gone from 1st team coach to the 2nd. assistant coach to the reserve team in a few months ,clearly he is incompetent.
So don`t you think that 8,000 quid a week would be better spent in giving it to Appleton ,to be used as he see`s fit, a man that is genuinely here at Rovers to build a good team for us ,and also enhance his own reputation ,Hendry is simply here to get a fat pay packet every week, so he has cash to go back down to his local bookies .

The fans will be in no doubt where the blame lies if Appy does not get the support he is looking for.
Appy is building a bank of goodwill with the faithful right now, lets hope he can deliver the goods.

Looking forward to the game, I don't expect Ipswich to be the pushovers that most expect but with a bit of luck 3 points will go down nicely.

sometimes rovers players make a problem of the own making when they make clearances without looking where the ball is going, needlessly giving the opponents a second chance on goal, with a bit more concentration they can avoid those crosses or shots from just outside the box , the further out you can get their attackers from our box its harder it is for them to score especially against the better teams.

However, as Shebby seems to have gone very quiet recently maybe an Assistant Global Knob Head is required. I think Modan should take the opportunity to audition by tediously churning out some more irrelevant indian supremacist claptrap.

I think we should stick with Rhodes and Kazim up front (Kazim gets lots of free kicks for us) and play DJ Campbell in just behind them as he has good movement.
Also bring David Dunn back in as he is fit (I know this) and we need a playmaker. I know his legs have gone but he is the only player to create anything. Maybe leave Murphy on the bench as Jason Lowe has the legs to hold for us in the midfield. Few more signings need though.
