Blackburn boss Kean admits three points a must against QPR

Blackburn Rovers boss Steve Kean admits three points are a must against QPR.

Kean admits securing three points on Saturday against Rangers is crucial, and believes his side have learned their lessons.

"You get in off the back of a [7-1] result - that's a tough one to take, with the number of goals that we conceded and a man sent off - but really it's the first time we've been turned over and turned over good and proper," he said.

"I felt it was important not to brush that under the carpet, so we pulled that game to bits.

"We've been focused on the work that had to be done so we're sure we addressed what we felt were the problems in that game and I'm absolutely delighted with the way the lads have responded because we've been in all week - there's been no day off for the lads.

"The number of sessions we've put in and the intensity they've put in, their response and their appetite to get that game out of their system has been fantastic so it's been a real positive week.

"Everyone in and around us plays each other so it's a real big weekend.

"It's going to be a tough game for QPR off the back of what we've been doing this week and we felt that we let ourselves down against Arsenal.

"We'll be setting the record straight and getting out of the blocks and making it tough for QPR."
