    No one asking Yokoyama to play 90 mins every game of the season, but while Wright , Hannson are injured while not give him a run in the team. He played welll against Fulham u21s which would have had Stansfield and Harris in the team if they wasn’t loaned or signed by us. I feel the lack of a wide player taking players on with skill and pace is what is costing us as the striker in a deeper role is more I interested in scoring rather than creating

    Yesterday reminded me of the defeat at Shrewsbury. Lots of players in odd positions. Unable to create anything in the final 3rd. It was a frustrating watch, and the lack of wingers once Hansson went off didn’t help.
    We’re going to need to be better against Stockport than we have the last couple of games.

    It was a disappointing game against Blackpool, I do feel the injury to Buchanan adversely affected the blues.

    That game was begging for Yoko, whenever players took people on we had success. Doldrums side to side passing and down the wings for crosses with one man in the box or cutting it back and then working across the defence again. We were lucky yesterday, it could've been 0-2 easily. Not having a natural left footed player on the left side didn't help (YOKO). Never the less still unbeaten and a great run. 3 points against Stockport is a must. Thor going too far right is such a waste. Fingers crossed for Buchanan and Emil. KRO

    I’m still struggling to figure out the starting formation. It looks like a number of our players (May/Willumsen/laird) were playing well out of position.

  • @ashleywiltshire2926
    @ashleywiltshire2926 24 дня назад

    My only issue has been that we seemed to make a lot of our signings with a view to pushing on in the championship next year and this season was really going to be a test bed to get our playing style sorted, at first it felt like we had more gears to go but now it feels like we have managed games but we can’t just flip a switch mid game to get a goal if required.
    You would expect goals will be even harder to come by in the championship and naturally we would be more likely to concede against better quality strikers so we may not be able to push on as much as we would like with this squad.

    Really happy with the points total at this point, top of the table at Christmas is a fantastic platform to kick on from as we go into the second half of the season. With regards to the style of play I'd say the team is quite new, 17 new player over the summer and most get game time. At league 1 level are we going to put 4 past evey team we play especially with teams setting up first and for most to stop blues playing most employing a low block with very little ambition or desire to do anything else on some occasions. I'd give blues 8/10 at this stage of the season, we're on the right path with more players to be added in January I'm sure.

  • @mrbluesky2051
    @mrbluesky2051 24 дня назад +1

    Pre season was all about being comfortable with the ball and playing out from the back, job done. Unfortunately playing twice a week and international duties Chris Davies would probably love more time on the training pitch to work on the final third. It’s a long term project, so I won’t expect to see the best of blues going forward until next season

  • @slightlyconfused876

    Enjoyed the Podcast as usual, I have no worries or complaints re our failure to devour teams 4 or 5 nil, CD is doing a solid job and the team are on the whole performing well. If I was to look at the transfer window I would like to see TGH and Ben Davies signed up and I would look to taking a punt on Richard Kone from Wycombe, always looks a threat up top and scores lots of goals, heard Luton were keen on him but I reckon he would come to us. Re wingers well I think we are ok there with what we have with Jay out wide and Keshi and Scot Wright (once fit). I like Dykes, he may create space for others but sadly things have not gone great for him here, maybe a swop plus cash for Kone ;)

  • @alexashley5430
    @alexashley5430 24 дня назад +1

    I still feel we haven't quite found what our best formation, tactic and 1st 11 is. We need to get used to frustrating, low scoring games. We are not a team that will dish out a thumping unfortunately. Possession based & gegenpress 'template' is what we are at the moment and that's not going away. Still top of the league and will be there or there abouts. I think it'll take Chris Davies a while to click but he's doing a great job thus far. KRO

  • @Bluemineck
    @Bluemineck 23 дня назад

    I think the Blues are really doing well. I’m not sure what more we can expect. There is only one real talking point and that’s style of play. Davies has been brought in to introduce a possession based style. And he has. So it’s whether you like it or not. I went to the Burton game with my family and I really enjoyed the precision of their passing. I thought it was excellent. I didn’t go to the Blackpool game but surely Buchanan’s injury had a huge impact. The delay, going off on a stretcher, our key left sided defender at that moment. And wow, another team played well. Shock, horror! Also what’s the obsession with Yokoyama? I also think some of the players are adjusting to the rigours or lower league English football. Hansson may be a ‘lightweight’, no offence and where is Scott Wright. But what on earth is wrong with him. Good luck to Blues in 2025, they deserve some KRO

  • @tonycardall7334

    The positive from our last 3 games is 7 points but the performances weren't great to watch . Luckily Burton were poor and Bristol rovers were awful, Blackpool probably should have won and we looked disjointed.

    The booing was due to frustration. Lots of ball possession, but rather slow-paced and lacking in fluidity in attack. I blame CD for the odd formation and selection. Hope he reflects and improves his selections and strategies.

    Most fans don’t want buckets of goals every game. We want a group of players playing in their preferred positions showing pride and effort for the fans. The front 4 never worked as it was a mix n match of very good players not playing in their most effective positions. As a novice manager Davies needs to start taking responsibility for his shortsightedness at times and mistakes. We just want him to learn and grow as a first team manager. Without doubt Birmingham city should walk back to championship with the embarrassment of riches in league 1.

  • @neilcook-ni3wv
    @neilcook-ni3wv 24 дня назад

    As uncomfortable a ninety minutes I’ve seen us have at home and for me I’d have taken the draw after an hour. Personally the early and clearly serious injury to Lee was upsetting, I’m sure his teammates felt it more. We do need to rotate with the glut of games, not sure about the Luke Harris substitution though. Credit Blackpool who planned and executed their game plan well. Can’t quite believe the boos from some, thankfully didn’t hear too many, this after the brilliant run we’ve been on and the position we’ve put ourselves in. People are edgy as some of the other teams are keeping pace with us. Just need to keep our heads as fans and we’ll be fine, atmosphere hasn’t been electric that often this season which might be down to style of play. Trust the process KRO

  • @robbiemichaels2347
    @robbiemichaels2347 25 дней назад +4

    There’s many things that can be said after this conversation. So simply put blues can’t really break teams down that well when teams just sit back and defend (they have a right to do that )but we can’t break down teams that attack us so basically we’ve got a problem. Haven’t we? I don’t think we’ve played well all year if I’m honest, but we scraped by and got results, that’s all well and good, but it’s not entertaining football. It’s boring football and fans that booed have a right to do so. I’m surprised that no mention that Chris Davis picked the wrong team from the very beginning and then made the wrong decisions with the substitutions.

    • @jamo98
      @jamo98 24 дня назад +1

      Spot on. We’re one dimensional, possession based football that lacks intensity. We seem to lack the ability to break teams down or find an alternative style when teams sit in a low block. We move it to slowly from the back, which allows teams to find and keep their shape.
      Of course it’s all relative, we’re still top of the league and winning games but there’s still a lot of questions about this team. We won’t be spending this kind of money again without promotion, we wont hang on to our best players either and they’ll be no huge rebuild again. I’m still waiting to see if they can become more clinical, if they don’t they will eventually get found out. KRO

    • @robbiemichaels2347
      @robbiemichaels2347 24 дня назад

      @ if you remember right at the start of the season many people including Brian and Alex was saying we need to be like an Ipswich town. We are certainly not playing like in Ipswich town creatively with speed and dynamic movement. It’s nonexistent. I hate to be moaning because we’ve all witnessed dross over the years. The players have been lulled into a full sense of security and thank God we’re not in the championship at the moment because we’d be seriously found out. And how about we play exactly how we intend to play in the championship when promoted and get it installed into the players this is how Birmingham city play.

  • @duncansmith53

    Harris for Hannson was ridiculous. Yoka has done enough to show me he’s ahead of Harris on the left, Poor team selection, tactics and subs. Let’s be honest we are not great on the eye and it’s affecting the atmosphere both (especially) home and away.

  • @neilpountney9414
    @neilpountney9414 24 дня назад +2

    Poor performance all around. Two home games against lower level teams and we failed to score from open play. Paik and Iwata are playing way too deep which makes linking up with the front very challenging and one we are failing at. I do not understand the love of Dykes he is not suited to the game we play and offers next to nothing. Come the transfer window we need another quality goal scorer and a midfield player who can create chances for the forwards. I personally think both Iwata and Paik can play that role but for some reason they are just too deep to be effective.
    I get the games have come thick and fast and it is easy for teams to put 8/9/10 players behind the ball when we play them but you have to learn to break this approach down and so far this season we have been unable to do so on a regular basis. CD has done a very good job but he is still learning too. Top of the table is awesome after what we have seen for the last few years but there is still much hard work to be done. KRO

Possession is great IF you create with it. Teams have sussed us.. sit and block and then launch a ball over the top and we struggle. Need some pace and quicker balls into box.

    It’s simple because we’ve been winning it’s been rose tinted on CD but he is a rookie not as good as uncle Tony who understood that systems are not the be all and end and that it must be married to individual ability which makes a difference and CD has got rid of all the players who can make a difference out of nothing. I don’t like the robotic football we are playing.
    For me James is a big miss since he left we’ve had no option in the middle who will drive the game forward rather than just looking to keep possession
