Given Chelsea's abundance of keepers (and they are probably going to add another this summer) and Franks connections, a 6-12 month loan for one of their backups on mates rates makes sense and will hopefully leave money to strengthen elsewhere
I agree, divisional & local rivals based in a popular holiday resort - recipe for disaster if you ask me. Blues have had this released for a couple of weeks already, I know a couple of their fans that have already booked flights/hotels
Blues to head to Portugal for pre-season camp. Birmingham City can confirm that the men's first team squad will travel to Portugal for a pre-season training camp. Chris Davies' squad will head to Albufeira from 7-13 July as they prepare for the 2025/26 Championship season.
If it's true we are...
Whoever/wherever we play I hope it's at a proper football stadium again. I have a Derby supporting friend who went to Alicante last year for a friendly and said it was played at a sports complex of sort with only 1 stand (similar to where we played Getafe last season) and he said the atmosphere...
Question for those who pay attention to league 1, how good is this Blues side compared to Ipswich one from a couple of years ago & are they genuine contenders to do back to back promotions ? Appreciate it’s hard to predict until the window is closed as we expect them to be big spenders but those...
Agree with you on Torp, we were crying out for him in the play offs. I think we will see a midfield of him Grimes & Rudi against teams we dominate and Sheaf/sheaf replacement come in for him away from home
Wouldn’t be surprised if someone came in for their keeper aswell. I’m struggling to think of better performance from an opposition keeper at the CBS this year
Will be interesting to see what happens with Sheff United next year. Invested heavily in Jan with little return and likely to loose a few big names this summer. Feel like they are a club stuck in limbo, not selling out yesterday and the semis shows the fans aren’t fully behind them at the...
Whatever happens with Milan this summer we need 2 proper RB's next season. Astonishing he was available for so many games last year and if he stays it's a massive risk to rely on him doing the same next season.
Spot on. He has been a joy to watch this year and along with Grimes, I would say is the main reason we made the play offs, but he still has a fair way to go in his development. I would be shocked if someone was to pay us 20-25 mill for him given the calibre of player that could be brought in...
Not even June yet and Milan, Haji, Rudi & Lampard all linked with moves away, it’s going to be a long summer 😂 Guess it’s a sign of how far we have come to have for these jornos to waste their time with fake stories
