Todd Cantwell hopes his promotion experience can have a positive affect in the Blackburn Rovers dressing room.

The talented midfielder has played three seasons at Championship level, with Norwich City, and on each occasion, ended up in the Premier League.

Cantwell's pedigree has already been shown in flashes at Rovers. He started three games in a row last week which feels like a major step forward as he looks to find full fitness.

Whilst talks of the top-flight is certainly premature at this stage, Cantwell hopes that his experiences can help his team-mates.

"I've played three seasons in the Championship and got out of it every time. I have been on the end of success in this division," he said.

"The manager knows that. I'm not particularly vocal or the one that you can hear on the pitch but I'll say what needs to be said when it needs to be said.

"Behind closed doors, I think I can get the best out of people. Hopefully, my experience drips off me rather than having to shout about it.

"The season is right at the start, there is a lot to do and plenty to play. It only takes a good or bad month to change the entire perspective. We will be patient."

Cantwell has played largely off the left for Rovers but has been given license by Eustace to drift in-field. He also rotates in the number 10 position with Tyrhys Dolan to find pockets of space.

But working hard off the ball has been equally important. It's something Cantwell feels has been harshly tagged against him but is pleased to be showing both sides to his game.

"When I signed and spoke to the manager, we had complete clarity on the two positions I felt I could bring the best version of myself in," he revealed.

"They are the positions I've played in since I came here, number 10 and left-winger. The way he wants the left-winger is similar to how I played under Daniel (Farke) at Norwich who was a false winger, I had license to come inside and become a difficult player to pick up.

"You don't see that as much when you don't have the ball but you have to be disciplined off the ball and work hard for the team. That's something I've always done, not something I've always been labelled with because I like a trick, but I've always done that.

"It's nice to get a bit of recognition for that."

He added: "In terms of managers I've had so far, I think he's the most relatable and I say that because when I hear him speak, it makes sense all the time.

"Sometimes you listen, you're on board, you like the way you play but you question things. Everyone here can always match what he asks for, which is 100 per cent and that's the minimum you have to give to play for Blackburn whilst he's the manager.

"We all realise that doing that equals results. He's way more detailed in tactics but as a baseline, you work hard or you don't play."
