Doesn’t seem to start many games for Blackburn though. I’d have thought that if he was good enough for a PL squad, then he’d be a first-name-on-the-teamsheet type player in a mid-table Championship team.
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊

Quality of player is a bit different though. If he is nursed in like Hinshelwood and others you never know. Fair point though.
I think he’s got a chance.

Felt like he had been starting a fair few but has been a perennial sub since Tomasson got sacked.

Yes, this is precisely how things have materialised. Moran was a regular starter, until the new manager came in.
As doomed as Gyokeres then

And if you ever follow what blackburn fans say on twitter, moran and Ayari are their scape goats. They really want both nowhere near the first team so not sure how can be a prem first teamer. Doubt both will ever make it.

I wouldn't listen too much to the chicken pluckers, Moran has the makings of a poor mans Lallana. Ayari seems like a poor mans Sarmiento...but he's still very young

Blackburn fans' forum don't reckon he'd good enough for a meh Championship team like Blackburn, let alone for us.
Not my opinion - just the messenger!

Blackburn's problem is they have the second worst defence in the division. It's been piss poor all season. Tomasson got sacked and - invariably - the new man chooses experience over youth. However, Blackburn have dropped Moran and done worse.
I've watched him 4 or 5 times this season and he has always been positive, incisive with his passing and gets forward. I remain optimistic that - for his age - he's doing OK.
Sarmiento was a benchwarmer for West Brom but has been a terrific loan signing for the vastly superior Ipswich. I think the Championship is a marathon and many managers will choose physicality, power and raw speed over youthful guile. If Ipswich don't get promoted I hope Moran goes there on loan when Sarmiento comes back to us as he surely will.

Tbh I never really trust fans opinions that much, especially (as someone mentioned on another comment) on loan players as they often end up being scapegoats when they play badly. Fans decide they don’t care enough or they don’t want to develop other clubs players for them etc etc.
Fans also generally know f*** all about anything anyway

I wouldn't write Moran off from Blackburn fans opinions - as others say the loan players often get scapegoated.
However it's unlikely for him to come into the first team off the back of a disappointing loan.
