Birmingham City (A) 2-3 Leicester - Post-Match Thread

[bmt]

Thought KDH looked awesome last night.

 

Decent performance, bit sloppy at both ends

[Muzzy_no7]

XG of 1.52 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[adejo92]

Made hard work of that as per.

 

Away end was great. Their home end was dreadful. Made ours sound like prime Legia Warsaw.

 

"We're Birmingham city, we'll fight 'till the end" 

 

Is up there on the cringe-ometer with "mauled by the tigers".

 

Anyway, a good 3 points from what could have easily been a bogey game.

It's a 3-way choice between Winks, KDH and Vestergaard (!!) I reckon. All 3 make us tick, and have been pretty consistent and reliable all season. KDH probably gets it as he's got more output than the other two, and there'll be an element of confirmation bias as he was already being touted as Championship POTS before a ball was even kicked.

guess he would forget the fact we could have been least 6 up before then

if we had been more clinical we'd have had least 4 before HT, and probably another 4 in the second half

I see the ridiculous moaning from a month or so ago has stopped. 😂 

This is a ridiculous comment.  We are playing better, more exciting football.

 

We were turgid and now in the last month we are not.

Well, the ref didn't.

[LFEFox23]

Strange decision to have 2 x GKs on the bench, why not have a young kid on there for a bit of match day experience?!

Tbf that Fatawu one in the second half was bad, in the prem with VAR I think he goes there. I think it is accidental because he’s close to getting the ball but he’s also close to seriously harming him. 
 

At the same time we were far better than them so he can stop moaning. 

[FoxinNotts]

Great away end yesterday. Just getting through the hangover now, following all dayer ( all afternoon)

Haha ROONEY ROONEY ROONEY 

[Dandy king]

I thought there was some excellent stuff played last night. Progression of the team is pretty clear to see, yes it's not perfect - it never will be -  but we are getting better all the time whilst still pissing the league, great stuff. 

[Vazman]

Thought Vesterguards performance last night, was one of his best this season, his forward passing and threading balls forward was great too see.

[JimJams]

Can't be arsed with these youtuber breeds generally but this showed up and shows the goals from a different POV.

 

 

[woollett the bullet]

Listened to Rooney' s post match comments last night - Leicester and the relegated clubs have a distinct  advantage  because  of the money so they can afford  better players etc or something along those lines .

 

Short memory you've  got Wayne ,  didn't you play for Manchester United  for 10 years ?

"But Stephy needs to improve his behaviour, which was not correct."

 

 

Does anyone know what Maresca meant by that? was it the post goal celebration where he sat and goaded the fans a little bit?

Yes. Wasn't happy with the goal celebration.

I have a feeling that Mavididi has already been well and truly put in his place.

My mate is a huge Tottenham supporter.  He sincerely regrets the fact that Spurs allowed Winks to transfer away.

Not was Winks. Even apologised to the Brum fans! 😂 What a lovely lad.

This will be Enzo translating literally into English - in Italian "corretto" can imply "sporting" or "appropriate", so in his view the celebration was "unsporting" / "inappropriate".

[Guest nathan.]

Mavs was lucky he didn’t get a slap and start a massive brawl.

 

Let himself down after a top performance.

[Jordan]

I have no problem with Mavididi’s celebration. It was obviously the Kudus celebration. Besides, all he did was just sit there and look cocky—he didn’t say anything or make any other provocative gesture.

 

KDH teased the fans after his goal but he didn’t get singled out by the manager.

 

The only thing unsportsmanlike from Mavididi’s performance was diving to try to win a penalty late in the 1st half.
