So would you rather be in Brum’s shoes or our own. I know which camp I’d rather be in

Birmingham are "going for it"
We have signed an unknown fullback, a fullback who isn't as good as the one we have, and are linked to a loan keeper.
That is not "going for it"
Cliche bingo completeyou don't know what playing through a press is do you
hardly the cdm fault the forwards can't break down a low block
Goalkeepers aren’t even proper footballers!
Well, that is not what I said!So would you rather be in Brum’s shoes or our own. I know which camp I’d rather be in
For us to “go for it” we need a major sale to make major signings to improve as our squad is already good enough for top 6Well, that is not what I said!
The part i don't get is how many of us watched us in games where we dominated most of the possession and the opposition GK had a great game and we have 2 shots on target against us and 2 goals against but still think we need better strikers so we can score more goals than the opposition instead of bringing in someone to stop the constant soft goals.
I was off my seat a number of times last year when Collins dropped yet another clanger.I can never get excited by a goalkeeper - he's hardly gonna be having fans up off their seats is he?

I suspect it’s because we have one goalkeeper who’s lost his mind and another who’s subpar, which will cost points needlessly if it isn’t fixed. I suspect most also agree that we need better up front but it’s considerably harder and more expensive to do that.The part i don't get is how many of us watched us in games where we dominated most of the possession and the opposition GK had a great game and we have 2 shots on target against us and 2 goals against but still think we need better strikers so we can score more goals than the opposition instead of bringing in someone to stop the constant soft goals.
If this does happen my prediction of 2nd to 4th this season is on. It's going to be a mental season. There will still be more ins and outs, but the quality of the players that have come in under Lampard so far fills me with confidence. We have a squad that's Championship experienced and know each other well. Clubs like Birmingham will have a side of strangers lacking Championship experience.
I meant the posts about Grimes on a thread about us signing a new keeperIt's been a long slow window so far mate it has be boring, we need confirmation of Rushworth to beat back the boredom lol
It depends, if we sell Rudoni for £20m (purely for example) we could buy 4 £5million pound players, (and use the Vik money for part of their wages)Surely the definition of going for it would not be selling one of our best players.
Yeah honestly go & watch LeicesterIf you can’t see what Grimes brings to our midfield then try another sport as football isn’t for you ….
So did you mean it or not?It depends, if we sell Rudoni for £20m (purely for example) we could buy 4 £5million pound players, (and use the Vik money for part of their wages)
Would that get us over the line?
And if Rudini does his ACL against Hull we would definitely wish we had done this.
(For any bell ends who want to disect the above, can I just say that this is purely for an example, im in now way suggesting we should, will, or could sell Rudoni, and the cash figures mentioned, are purely for conversation only and not indicative of his real value in the market)
Not my decision to make, fortunately.So did you mean it or not?
Ah my badI meant the posts about Grimes on a thread about us signing a new keeper
Sorry but I'd prefer to be boredFuck me this is boring
Which can be the difference between having a good GK and having a Wilson or Collins.
Having two shots on target against us and conceding twice is incredibly frustrating.
What is even more frustrating is knowing we also had numerous chances to score ourselves and didn't take any.
But even a good defence will have shots against them. And when a defence don't trust their GK (us various times over the years) they can't play their natural game. And it isn't just the constant mistakes that cost us goals and games. We need someone who can command their area. A GK who will commit.e out and catch the ball would be a right bonus. No more constantly punching the ball if they manage to reach it and giving it them back to have another go.I suspect it’s because we have one goalkeeper who’s lost his mind and another who’s subpar, which will cost points needlessly if it isn’t fixed. I suspect most also agree that we need better up front but it’s considerably harder and more expensive to do that.
Hence the focus on the defence
Few around us got that many points.we only got 10 points from the last 7 games. Coincidence?
I’m in England dudeStill in Spain with Brighton.
Still in Spain with Brighton.

Oh ok. So transfer business in this window has been concluded has it ?You are getting carried away!

So how do we keep strengthening?Surely the definition of going for it would not be selling one of our best players.
Your preference was a loan signing that was never even remotely on?Watched a few videos, definitely feel comfortable with the look of Rushworth.
Preference would have been Mike Penders of Chelsea but this fella looks decent.
Hopefully we can shift one or two keepers.
Bell on loan somewhere and then ideally Collins transfer but if no interest then don’t mind Wilson leaving as once Dovin is back we won’t need either if there is an obligation to buy with Rushworth if we get promoted. If we can get money for Wilson off the back of his golden glove season then I wouldn’t be opposed to it. Appears he’s got a contract till 2027.
Really depends on what this deal with Rushworth turns out to be.

Or the new lad from Fulham if he lives upto expectationsWould imagine the future is Dovin/Bell
A year is a long time in football.Would imagine the future is Dovin/Bell
I think Rudoni is excellent and agree he has even more to give but to say you wouldn't swap him for Gus is a bit myopicA year is a long time in football.
If Rushworth does actually sign for us we will be stronger than last season. Lampard took us from 3 points out if the bottom 3 to 5th. Rudoni has become a beast and will continue to improve under Lampard. Last season it was more like 'woe is me' with both Hamer and O'Hare being together at Sheffield United. But now not a single person in their right mind would swap Rudoni for the pair of them. We've moved onwards and upwards.
I'm sticking to my prediction of 2nd to 4th. Ipswich should be too strong for us but otherwise there's negatives with all the other sides. We will have a better idea about October/November time. Can't see anything but a big promotion push this season with how things stand personally. Get promotion? If Rushworth is as good as he seems then he should be a big target of ours for a permanent move. Dovin as understudy. Bell as back up.
