Blackburn Rovers legend Tim Sherwood has recommended players for the club to try and sign on loan. The Rovers title winner still holds a strong affinity with the club and has spoken openly about his desire to see the team return to former glories.

What happened?

Sherwood revealed that he has even spoken to Head of Football Operations, Rudy Gestede, about exciting prospects he has spotted, who may be able to help the club short-term. The team is currently 9th in Championship, with 1 point from 1 game, and 2 points behind leaders QPR.

Why it matters for Blackburn Rovers

Sherwood has championed the return of Tony Mowbray after the instability of recent seasons, believing the head coach's experience of working under Venky's will be invaluable to bring stability and push the club forward. The team has scored 2 goals and conceded 2 goals this season, with a goal difference of 0.

What comes next?

Sherwood thinks the team has a good chance of reaching the play-off positions, but needs some help with the playing squad, and has recommended a few players to Rudy Gestede, who he believes can make a difference. The team's recent form is D, with 0 wins, 1 draw, and 0 losses from 1 game. Blackburn Rovers will look to build on their morale-boosting draw with Wolves, and with the right signings, they may be able to compete for a play-off spot.
