On-loan Ryan Tunnicliffe: 'Playoffs the minimum Blackburn Rovers requirement'

On-loan midfielder Ryan Tunnicliffe believes that the minimum target for Blackburn Rovers this season is a Championship playoff place.

Blackburn Rovers midfielder Ryan Tunnicliffe has revealed that the club's minimum requirement this season in the Championship is a top-six place.

The 21-year-old, who is on a season-long loan from fellow second-tier club Fulham, believes that the Lancashire side's recent seven-game unbeaten run showcases their playoff credentials.

"It's always good to play in a good side and I'm enjoying it a lot," the former Manchester United youngster told Rovers' website.

"I think the minimum aim has got to be to get into the playoffs.

"I think we're good enough, we've played all the decent teams in the league now and come to a lot of away grounds and we're not far off."

Their recent form has seen Blackburn move to within one place of the top six.

Tunnicliffe has made 10 appearances for the club this season, scoring a late equaliser against Watford in September for his only goal.
