Former England midfielder Ince signed a three-year deal at Ewood Park, leaving MK Dons to replace former manager Mark Hughes.

And now Warnock, who won his first England cap in the recent friendly against Trinidad and Tobago, has pledged his future to the club under Ince.

"I am more than happy at Blackburn - I love the club. It is fantastic," he said.

"Hopefully we will continue to have a lot of success under the new manager.

"I was desperate to find out who it was going to be as you want to know who you are working with.

"It was disappointing to lose Mark Hughes but this is an exciting time for the club.

"I think people will be itching to play for him [Ince] not because of who he is but because of his achievements as a manager.

"He gets the most out of his players and the chairman has probably chosen the best man for the job."
