But midfielder recognises that team-mates are doing a 'decent job'

Blackburn's weekend hero, Brett Emerton, has been growing frustrated at his lack of first-team football. The midfielder scored his side's last-gasp winner as they fought back for a dramatic, late win at Blackpool on Saturday. It was a welcome relief for Emerton, who has not been in Sam Allardyce's starting XI all season, as the 31-year-old confesses that he has been growing annoyed. He said in the Daily Star: "It has been frustrating for me. "As a player you always want to be playing but the boys have been doing a decent job and I recognise that. "I'm not the sort to go knocking on the manager's door. I try to let my feet do the talking on the pitch, on the training ground and when I get my opportunity."
