YAKUBU REVEALS PLANS TO WIN LEAGUE FOR KEAN

[Compass]

BLACKBURN Rovers striker, Yakubu Aiyegbeni, says the players are desperate to ease the pressure on manager Steve Kean.

Rovers are bottom of the Premier League table and a section of fans staged a post-match protest against Kean earlier this month.

A march is planned on Sunday before the Tottenham game at Ewood Park, followed by a sit-in protest after the match.

"We just have to stick together and do our job. In the end those fans will be with us again," Yakubu said.

"The protests do affect some players but I just concentrate on doing my job. There is always pressure when the team is not doing well.

"But the pressure isn't on the team when you're losing, it is always going to be put on the manager. "All the players are behind Steve Kean. When he talks to us in training, we are impressed. It's our job to go out there and win - and that's all we focus on.

"We got a good draw against QPR last week and we will take that to our game against Tottenham.

"If fans stick together with us, we will be fine."

Yakubu, 28, signed a three-year deal for Blackburn on transfer deadline day in August, ending a nightmare final three years at Everton. A ruptured Achilles in 2008 put him out of the game for almost a year and he was never able to work his way back into manager David Moyes plans, ending last season on loan at Leicester.
