alright mush. good to see another blues on here.

im not jeromes biggest fan my man so would have zamora any day of the week. hopefully mcfadden can step up this season.

You too fella.

I think McFad is in and out but clearly the most talented on his day - it just doesn't happen that often.

I'm just cant for the life of me see the Jerome love-in. But he's not far off the best option we have.
 

money is no concern for us thanfully these days my man!

Thats what they said about Lerner... but hey ho! lo and behold - the debt's jumped 20% last summer and they're sell to buy.


The Kopites made the same statements and spent 100's of millions... and look whats happened there.

Don't take your eye off the ball.

- anyway - any U21 players at yours that stand out??

its typical us pal some will never learn. james is in for a big season though if he wants to be known as not a maybe player if that makes sense! good things may come this season my man as long as we got alex.

No envy whatsoever, we spend when we've got it - and its what its spent on that counts.

I'm only interested in your youth team. As thats how success is sustained. Any prospects about to emerge?

I can tell you we have Bidwell. Baxter. Barkley. Hope. Garbutt all coming through next couple of seasons along with some decent players you may already know... like Rodwell... and Maggie Gueye etc

fully agreed but if you have nothing to spend then....?

mr yeung is going to take this club places and i hope you find similar soon my man as your gray haired one is not to flush.

We do have money to spend, at certain times... Infact we've spend 2.5 million on three youth players - one a French U21 international the other a Portuguese U21 international.

But again, stop evading the question - name some names in the Birmingham youth team you feel will or are about to set the world alight.

I'm interested.

2.5million does not buy you the nzog though pal does it? and thats were the problems lies. moyes can only work miracles for so long and i think you know that. i want to see you do well i really do.
 
All things considered, Jerome is a much better player to have than Zamora.

But neither are good enough for us to be frank.

Sorry mate but the day we're envious of Birmingham City will be the day of the apocalypse. You don't have a tradition of success. League titles? Cups? Any European titles? How many fans do you get home and away? How many genuinely world class players have played for you? How's your youth system, any potential world-beaters?

Well I suppose you guys are succeeding at the moment. Mid-table mediocrity in the premier league as opposed to mid-table mediocrity in the championship.

If he's bringing through (equivalent) 40 million worth of youth talent every other season, its not a miracle. It's called skill mate.

Theres a reason why we've got a better squad in 2010 to 2001. Younger. Better and more strength in depth.

Its called skill.

And Nzog is over priced. And we've got Magye Gueye (below) for less than 1 million. In 12 months time you'll see what we're talking about there.
