Hi guys, that was a s**t match wasn't it. Not just because we lost, just in general, not a good spectacle for all to see. But lets delve into what went wrong with us, and what we need to do. Firstly, lets look at the line up... I understand where Bruce comes from with keeping the same team that drew 1-1 against a liverpool side that were nothing special. HOWEVER Bruce should of changed his team around. I am not a fan of being loyal constantly, you should pick teams based on the opposition and the occasion. The goalkeeper, this should of been Westwood. We all know from last season that Mignolet does not do well against the mags, and he did not fail to live up to this. I like Mignolet, but Westwood is much better, and more experience (albeit championship level). There goal soley lies with Mignolet, dreadful keeping. The wall was covering the near post so all Mignolet had to do was stand at the far post and catch the f**king ball. Anyway moving on... WHY THE F**K is Richardson (an attacking midfielder) consistently playing at LB. He was woeful, dreadful. Colback played better at LB. Now Bruce also pays 6 million for Gardner, a goal scoring midfield, but then does not play him. This is a player who has played in a few Birmingham derbies and when coming on was clearly up for it. We need a winger, we have no width and nobody can't cross. We must buy Krankjor, he is a must. And finally we need a striker. Gyan looks fat and uninterested. I would happily take 13 million for him!
Ha Kranjcar is slow and right footed, I like him and would accept him LM, but would rather a quick, left footed winger.
