    TM has mentioned several times that Bennette is struggling to adapt to living in the UK and with the language etc. I’m not saying he isn’t talented because he is, but I think Diamond would be a better fit right now.

    I thought Sanderson looked really good last night. Would still be well up for bringing him in permanent in the summer.

    That's because you have Saudi owners. Sanderson would be a very good signing for Sunderland.

    I would take him as back up, but not sure he would want to come as a bench warmer. Sanderson will sign for Brum on a perm in Jan anyway,

    only if they sort their off pitch stuff out. not sure they could afford him on a permanent until they get a new owner.

    Seen a few articles today about them signing him in Jan, so just going off that if I’m honest

    I know this won't be an opinion shared with many, but I genuinely think Birmingham were one of the best / most effective looking sides we've played against. They fizzed the ball about well, were direct, organised, good mix of youth and experience. They hadn't lost at St Andrews since August. And they were very well defensively drilled. As their defensive record indicates.

    That win was so so important in so many ways. Two moments of magic from Amad, without those its a hugely different game.

    Our away performances have been very good and we seem to be a match for anyone. Not sure what happens at the SOL, but consistency is massively letting us down this season.

    God this feels weird.... i actually agree with you.

    Sanderson is very good but imo i think hes more suited to a back 3. Ballard is a better cb. Him moving to Birmingham makes sense

    I wouldnt take Sanderson back, but that id because it would be a barrier for Zak Johnson. Let Wright be eased out and trust what we see from our Academy lads.
