Anytime ive seen him play hes been impressive. At first Blackburn fans questioned hm, but now he must be both their favourite signing (this season) and the bargain of the season for them.

I think the Arsenal game last week was the first league game he didn't start since October.
Ya i know. All i was saying that I was a bit concerned with him being dropped 2 games on the bounce. If he was genuinely the real deal, Allardyce would have him as one of the first names on the team sheet considering the team are struggling at 17th position in the premiership

Fulham enquiry for Andrews, very interesting.
As jbyrne has said in the transfer topic........blackburn are not interested in selling him........which is good confidence boost for the lad.

Fair dues to the lad. Lot of raised eye brows when he got his move to the Premiership but the fact that a Europa League team want to sign him up proves his place is in the premiership.
+1
Good to see there are other premiership clubs and managers who value him. good on him.

Have been impressed with Andrews most times I've seen him play. We're lucky to have him.

Does well enough for us that's all that matters , I know the Blackburn fans aren't really impressed with him so it would be a good move for him
They like him now, he won them over during the course of the season. Although it was slightly hard towards the end when he being played at right back against the likes of rampaging Liverpool.
Andrews signed a new 4 year contract with Blackburn today. Hopefully that is a sign that Allardyce rates him and wants to keep him. The next step is to play him in midfield instead of at full-back like the end of last season.

Im too sick and upset to get involved in all the other threads about match last night but I just wanted to say I thought Keith Andrews produced the best midfield performance by an Irish player since Roy Keane against the Dutch.
I wasnt a fan of him before last night at all but the amount of tackles he won was incredible.Whelan too was excellent but it almost seemed that everytime an irish player won a ball back off the french that it was Andrews that did it. And it wasnt just in our own half either,he was box to box all night.
Its really not that complicated!!!
Yeah I would agree Razor absolutely outstading. Whelan was a big loss when he went off.
LESS OF THE BULL NOW!
Couldn't agree more. Andrews, Lawrence and St Ledger were excellent last night. I think the deserve special mention. I doubt any of them have played in a game of that importance and with that amount of pressure and they more than stood up and were counted.
It makes it all the more annoying that these lads may have missed out on the highlight of their careers.
I totally agree
Plkayed really well, I hope this puts an end to all the criticism regarding him being a very limited player. He's better than you think. You would not be in premership if you were bad player
This sums it up for a lot of us
To think he was a 4th division player not so long ago is simply amazing. I hope the French media took note of that. We wrote enough about yer man being a gypsy.
This sums it up for a lot of us
every player gave it everything.

During the qualifying games he was asked to do a specific job and that was to sit in midfield and break play up. It did not do him justice as a player. Last night he was asked to play and get forward when he could. It showed that he is a lot better player than most of us though he was.
