Birmingham Fans Pre Match Comments......
Clearly at an early juncture the Forest game takes on a little significance. If all goes wrong tomorrow and the weekend results don't pan out well we could be doing the yearly over the shoulder looking downwards again.
I really think changing personnel is not going to change that most teams set up having scouted each other early doors has seen that either our set up is easy to counter act or our playing staff ain't that good.
QPR done a job on Chong tonight, on him like a shot. I do remember the Stoke game he missed how we had no real maverick go to guy to drive the team and make stuff happen.
Deeney is struggling to settle and being subbed in less than an hour may indicate a bit of this and perhaps Bowyer not thinking he a good match at present. I dare say we have to factor in QPR are a pretty good side and fancied by many for automatic. The signs are there for a struggle if we lose a key player or two and the forwards not getting their act together.
Bela may be good going forward but defensively he's a liability and I still think a stint up front with his pace and trickery may help. I would keep Deeney on the bench for Saturday and tell him and the rest of the squad to get some serious fitness work over the international break. To be honest him talking us up as automatic reminded me of my brothers blues opinions he goes once a season and before every match he genuinely thinks we will win the game and before every season starts he thinks we will win the title.
I think Bowyer should go back to his favoured 4312, it is a bit annoying him being stubborn with the set up at present
Square pegs in square holes at the back
Deeney needs to be an impact sub.
Hogan needs to be put out to pasture. Idle, weak and contributes nothing. Safe to say im not a fan
Gardner suspended and Chong ineffective the last 4 games now.
Need to go a flat back 4 and Pedersen probably out.
Back we come to Stans for the challenge of Forest, I'll go 3-1 Blues with Colin as FGS.
Can just see the implosion already
Blues 0 Forest 1
FGS Lolley obviously
Blues 0 Forest 2 Lolley
2-1 the Blue machine Forest are shit Chong FGS
1-0 Forest Grabban
A scrappy match with a scrappy goal from Hogan.
Blues 1-0
Big game for us and one we need to win. Forest running into a bit of form. My worry is teams have worked us out, we lack the ability to score despite making chances and our defence is inconsistent.
1-1. Deeney
