About his loan tenure and score, Elliott said: “The main score is the main thing here.
“I was only happy to sign up and contribute to the win. I hope this is the first of many but I’m just excited to see what really happens.

“Once we got 1-0 ahead, (we weren’t) comfortable but we were able to play our football and keep it going and then we killed them.
“The two of us had a few chances that we should have put them away but luckily we put them away in the second half.
“It just shows you what this team has. They have a lot of creative players, a lot of technical players as well and he’s been a good target.

“He helped the team and I think Blackburn deserves to be in the Premier League, it’s a great club with great players and even against Watford we have proven our quality in the team and they are a decent team as well.”
