Rovers boss Paul Ince believes that Paul Robinson deserves a crack in the England shirt again.

Having had a good start to the season and showing his ability, Robinson has really stepped it up with a great showing in between the sticks against Chelsea.

Robinson looks like a man rejuvenated and his nightmare period in net for Spurs is now a long gone memory.

Robbo’s confidence is clearly back and he looks like the goalkeeper we all hoped he would be.

Ince, speaking to Sky Sports said: ‘I think he deserves a chance. It is a friendly, so why not? I know David James has the shirt but since Robbo came here, he has been outstanding.

‘It was a great bit of business bringing him in. As far as I am concerned, he is the best goalkeeper in the league – and he can get better.

‘He had a lack of confidence at Tottenham due to not playing. He wanted a fresh start and he has his head screwed on. He is really focused on his job and you can see that in his performances.’

‘It is important for a goalkeeper to get on with a goalkeeping coach and they get on really well. They are good mates,’

‘Paul loves coming into training every day and loves what he is doing. You can see that on the pitch.’

I would be really chuffed for Paul Robinson if he got a chance, I think he has earnt it. He has a long way to go to match Brad’s efforts at Ewood but he has earnt a crack at trying to get that infamous night in Croatia out of his system and to make some new, happier memories for himself.

Go on Fab…
