Currently our only player on loan to a championship club, Hendrie is at Blackburn. The former Premier League side are currently struggling in the Championship, and this week drew two all with club on the up Burton Albion.

The Scottish left back received a rating of 7.1 from WhoScored.com which is a decent mark. He played the full 90 minutes, completing 76% of his passes and making two tackles. The player had hoped to become Cresswell’s understudy, but has failed to impress Bilic and the coaching staff after being brought down from Hamilton Academical.

He will be looking to improve on his defensive work and begin forcing his way into the squad next year.
