In fairness though that would just be Blackburn falling to their natural level.
Their natural level is surely the premier league? for the past ten years they have rightly been mid table positions and fighting for the european spots and doing well in the cups. It wasnt until the Venkys came in that they started to struggle. I admit that if they had kept the same team and then get relegated then they deserve to be, but they have been made to sell their best players and more will leave, and there are also players that are forced to be left out just incase they get injured or whatever and become worthless. A couple of years ago they had a decent team imo and with managers like mark hughes or big sam they were on the up, now they are being sold on and bringing in players on lease just to scrape some results and if and when they get relegated the only reason for it would be the owners and not that it's their right place to be, imo anyway.
Blackburn have spent the majority of their history outside the top flight. Their crowds are poor for a premier league team. If it wasnt for Jack Walker they would still be bumming around Division 1/2 like they did for the 70s&80s.

Won't be the best player in the world though as he's gone to a good team, so we can't judge properly

Cant be bothered argueing You're right on that logic though and i agree ish. I do think that before the Venkys took over they deserved to be where they were and imo are a decent team. It's a shame the owners didnt keep to their word, rebuilding half the stadium and carrying on with their good youth system would of been nice to see along with bringing in some new names. Oh well, let's just see what next season brings for them

Neymar will be another Robinho. Full of sand dancing, good few goals and assists, but never the best.

Torres has actually looked really good. Those goals have brought back the hunger it seems.
