Big Sam on Russian Mission – Pavel Pogrebenyak?

As Blackburn kicked off against Leeds in their friendly game today, it became apparent that manager Sam Allardyce was not at the game.

This is good news for Rovers fans as it means Big Sam is taking a serious look at a player or players before putting in a bid in.

We know that his self confessed priority is a striker and I hear that he is actually in Russia to watch a game today. There are four games being played there today:

PFK Samara Kryliya Sovetov v Saturn Moscow
Lokomotiv Moscow v Dinamo Moscow
Zenit St Petersburg v FK Rubin Kazan
FK Rostov-Na-Donu v FK Tom’ Tomsk

If I was to pick one out that I thought Sam was at, I would go with the Zenit game against FK Rubin Kazan and in particular I think he is watching Pavel Pogrebenyak.

Rovers target Pavel Pogrebenyak

A good one to be looking at in my opinion, I will post again once I can confirm that, he is indeed Sam’s target, if not then I will let you know who he really was looking at.
