Optimistic Dunn Sees Top Ten Finish For Blackburn

Providing Blackburn strengthen this summer midfielder David Dunn believes a top ten finish at the end of the campaign is a realistic target.

Rovers boss Steve Kean has already revealed his desire to bring in a striker, midfielder and central defender after losing Phil Jones to Manchester United, while Jermaine Jones returned to Schalke following the end of his loan spell.

“If we keep strengthening, get a few more players in, maybe a midfielder and a striker, there’s no reason why we can’t finish top 10,” he said.

“Who knows, if we start well and end well, there’s no reason why we can’t finish a little bit higher.

“I think Jase (Jason Roberts ) did great as did Mauro (Formica) but I think it would be great for competition to bring in a real hungry striker that can score some goals and maybe a centre midfielder with a bit of experience as well.”

He added: “I feel pretty confident about this season, not over-confident but all the lads fitness-wise are really good and training’s been going really well.

“I think if we can keep improving we’ll be okay.”
