SAM Allardyce will assess the emotional and physical effects of World Cup heartache on Keith Andrews before deciding on his side to face former club Bolton on Sunday.
Andrews was in the Republic of Ireland team which controversially lost the play-off to France in extra-time on Wednesday, remaining on the field for the full 120 minutes.
Having also played the entire first leg in Dublin last weekend, Blackburn boss Allardyce might feel it is too much for Andrews to slot back into midfield for the Barclays Premier League contest. With Vince Grella (hamstring) now back to fitness, Rovers have a full squad to select from.
Team (from): Robinson, Chimbonda, Salgado, Samba, Givet, Nelsen, Diouf, Andrews, Pedersen, Dunn, Grella, Jacobsen, Nzonzi, Emerton, Hoilett, Kalinic, McCarthy, Roberts, Di Santo, Brown.
