Mowbray said: "I genuinely believe that if we can get out of this division I don't think we'd struggle in the Premier League, I think we will compete and more than hold our own. The way we play the game is more suited to the Premier League than the Championship and, if someone wanted to aim a criticism at us, it might be that we're playing the right way to try and get out of this league, which is why I think we've had a few inconsistencies recently. If we go into the Premier League, retaining the ball as well as we do and being as patient as we are, then I would suggest we wouldn't necessarily struggle in the Premier League."
