"Outstanding. Millwall are performing how a Millwall team should perform; hard work, determination, desire, strong, mature performances. Four wins in a row now and they don't look like they're going away. They don't just look like a team in form, they look like they are going to sustain it. It will be interesting to see where it takes them. I wouldn't have fancied them at the beginning of the season but I've got to say, after watching them a number of times this season, they look up for the fight to challenge for promotion this year."
"First of all, it's a huge result for Blackburn. Anyone that heard Valerien Ismael's interviews leading into this game - you could tell that he's under pressure and you can tell that he's not happy with the way his team is performing. What he needed was a performance from his team to show that they're fully behind him, that they've got that fighting spirit to be able to turn their season around and he got that. As for Southampton, every time they look like they're taking a step forward, they seem to take two or three steps backwards. Losing a game against a struggling Blackburn team, in the manner that they did - the fans clearly showe"
Millwall recorded a fourth consecutive league victory, beating Leicester City 1-0 to move to third in the Championship and reduce the gap to second-placed Middlesbrough to two points. The club's recent displays combined hard work, determination, physicality and maturity, projecting sustained form and a possible promotion challenge. Blackburn Rovers secured their first home win of the season against Southampton, providing a vital performance that addressed mounting pressure on manager Valerien Ismael and demonstrated renewed fighting spirit. Southampton have won only once since the opening day and continue to suffer inconsistency. Results across the Championship underline the league's competitive unpredictability.
