Taking Stock

As I may have said before on this website, I’m not a fan of the international break. Whilst I know it’s necessary because of qualification for the World Cup it seems like everything shudders to a halt just after it’s got going and after the hustle and bustle of transfer deadline day we’re all left twiddling our thumbs for a couple of weeks before the next club game. However, I think it’s also a good time to take stock on what is happening.

Whilst the draw might have flattered Blues considering the amount of spurned Gladbach chances, the performance was one of a good quality for the first game back after the summer break and showed signs of promise.

Loans, loans, loans…

Talking Points sponsored by John Hicken Industrial roofing and cladding materials

Much has been made of the amount of games Blues have left to play this season (a minimum of seventeen), and the current thinness of the squad over the last few days. The sale of Beausejour seems a bit bizarre bearing in mind Blues were supposed to be okay on the money front and are now without a truly left-sided midfielder in the first team. Where do we go from here?
