Mowbray: It Will Be A Tough Game

Last updated : 08 August 2017 By CNS Sport

Blackburn Rovers manager Tony Mowbray's feels it is a dangerous game as his side travel to face Coventry City tonight at the Ricoh Arena in a Carabao Cup First Round tie.

Mowbray, who quit City for a number of reasons including the travelling to his family home nearly a year ago, said to the Lancashire Telegraph about the game: “It will be a tough game – they had a fantastic result at the weekend.

“They have some decent players.

“When I look at the team, they only have two, in a short period of time, that are still playing.

“Jodi Jones got a hat-trick, a player we signed for £100,000 from Dagenham and Redbridge, he’s a very, very talented young boy and progressing well. He’s a threat to any team.

“We will have to be mindful, they have some experience up top, Stuart Beavon has been around a long time and is very busy, works hard, is good with his back to goal and knows where the net is.

“It is a dangerous game for us and we will have to try and apply ourselves and enforce our game on to them and see where it takes us.”
