Pic: Jack Byrne is joined on pre-season training by a former Manchester United defender

Jack Byrne appears to settling in well to life at Blackburn Rovers.

The Manchester City midfielder joined the Championship side on-loan for the season, and is currently on a pre-season tour of Austria. Byrne tweeted a photo ahead of his first game for Blackburn. The 20-year-old is alongside Republic of Ireland international Anthony Stokes, and former Manchester United defender Wes Brown. Brown was released by Sunderland at the end of last season, but is training with Blackburn with the potential of being offered a deal. https://twitter.com/Jackb_8/status/751011171549970436 When Byrne signed for Blackburn, his manager Owen Coyle said:

"He can find a pass for the Danny Graham's and the Anthony Stokes’ of this world, and the wide players that we've got."

Coyle was proved correct, as Byrne played a part in Blackburn's winner in their 1-0 friendly against SV Ried of Austria on Saturday evening. https://twitter.com/Rovers/status/751832624109326337
