Gary Bowyer backs Jordan Rhodes to end goal drought

Blackburn Rovers manager Gary Bowyer believes that Jordan Rhodes will soon end his drought with a "glut of goals".

The striker has failed to score in his last eight games, but Bowyer is adamant that he will find his goalscoring touch.

"I spoke with him and the positive, the massive positive, is that there is a glut of goals coming from Jordan Rhodes," Bowyer told the Lancashire Telegraph.

"It depends on how you interpret it or look at it. I look at it as a massive positive for us that we can look forward to and welcome him scoring goals again soon."

Rhodes has scored 16 times in the Championship this season.
