Most 16-year-olds aren't even starting for their U18 team, never mind the first team. While he didn't run the show he showed he's got all the traits you want from a top class midfielder and the mentality to boot. Don't get many 16-year-olds in mens football comfortable defending, getting physical and making tackles - normally they just want to attack and play simple passes.
Agreed. Also massive for 16 as well ! Was speaking to blues mates before and they were saying about his height and build for his age. They weren’t wrong
Jude had his worst game for us yesterday by a long shot. He is usually our bets player, and his average for scoring, or being involved in a goal is 124 mins, which at 16 years old is amazing. Please watch this short highlights clip. He he the real deal like Maddison.
Our wingbacks are the most productive in the league with 11 contributions to goals, and Juke is again top of all the charts in his stats.
I think if the idiot manager sets us up properly for the return, you will see what he's made of. And of most of us here may also be England fans. He will be one of yours too eventually...

Not sure that he did anything astonishing yesterday - thought he was very quiet. Obviously he must have something given all the hype, but didn't show it yesterday.

I didn’t think he really stood out on Saturday but for a 16 year old to look average means they’re impressive.

I didn’t see that much from him (Bellingham) on Saturday and it didn’t surprise me he was taken off.
Also I didn’t think the Blues were good at all - they looked like a decent League 1 team - end of.
Same shots as us - same shots on target as us and we had more possession!
If OHare has scored everyone would be saying how crap and ordinary they were!
Even Blues fans thought Bellingham & Birmingham were awful on the day - we were not even at our best either!
Replay is definitely winnable that’s for sure!

Spot on. We were awful.
Bellingham is a cracker but at 16 he ain’t gonna produce every game. Gonna be a star.

What the hell is going on at Birmingham - first Bright refuses to sign & now this?
BIRMINGHAM SNUBBED....AGAIN
Renat Dadashov has also turned down a late move from Wolves to Birmingham.
The two clubs had agreed a loan deal but the player has decided against it.

Jairo Martinez was capped 38 times by Honduras and scored 13 goals.
He scored 3 goals for us in 11 appearances, a better rate than most of our current strikers and that was in a higher division.
Ivan Guererro was capped 84 times by Honduras.
I'd say they both had pretty decent careers

Decent career because he got capped 84 times by the mighty world force of football that is Honduras?

As transfer windows go, this has been very Blues. Sign a non-goal scoring Villa reject striker, get held to ransom by a Wolves kid who spent most of last season in League 1 and can’t get in the Wigan team, sent the three amigos back to Spain with the Spanish revolution left in tatters, then in the final seconds let one of our most experienced relegation fighting campaigners join a relegation rival for the remainder of the season!!
Classic Blues, what a club

That sounds grim. Eerily similar to the way we were run before the big troubles started. I hope you get some decent owners in before shit really hits the fan and we’re ground sharing at the Sisu stadium (playing in the park)As transfer windows go, this has been very Blues.

What strength team do you think you guys will put out on Tuesday?
Think you have a game on Friday don’t you - so will you rest players for the replay?
Or are you short on options after the rattling window!!

Hogan is a decent player isn't he? Remember him being good for Brentford in the Championship so might work out.
Bright is a strange character. He's been stringing us along the last couple of windows too. I think essentially he's all about the money and Wolves are paying him some ridiculous amount for the next 6 months so he'd rather sit it out by the looks of it. God knows who's advising the kid.

Anybody’s guess mate, rumour has it that the Chinese front man picks the side
Stan_Drews

He’s also a DVB which means he has to hit the ground running to get the fans onside.
GaryJones

Really?
He will probably pick a number 4 followed by a number 6 - 12 -21 with a couple of portions of number 9 on the side!

Lots of schools of thought and bullshit theories around Monks sacking and Clotet his number 2 getting the job. 99% of these are rumours and heresay but what is fact is Dong (the new frontman who took the place of convicted financial criminal Yeung) moved himself into an office at Blues training ground. Monk, quite rightly, had a blazing row with Dong as he considered the training ground as sacrosanct to the players and management and not for board members.
Shortly after he was sacked and made to sign an NDA in order to get his contract paid up. Just after that all these rumours came out about Monk around wrong-doing involving agents. NDA effectively gagged him and of course he wasn’t prosecuted for anything. It was almost as if there was no proof of these allegations if you get what I mean. Strangely enough he was able to get another job in the same division.
Clotet is in place cos he’s a yes man with no track record. Unfortunately for us he’s a yes man with no track record and no feckin idea either.
