Just shows how limited a manager Bowyer is if he’s going for players that got relegated with him last time around4

Thomas has made a statement that the clubs transfer policy is to recruit YOUNG players that have experiance at our level.0

I actually think that's a pretty low fee for Millar. He did well at L1 level and could have had a crack at the Championship. Getting a 21 year old at that level with his pedigree is unusual. Chelsea tend to get absolutely outrageous fees for the young players they no longer want. They got £8m for Tomas Kalas, £4.5m for Kenneth Omeruo(?) and£2.4m for Nathan. Liverpool probably won't be too bothered but Basel have got a good deal heremendonca said:Liverpool really do negotiate good fees for their fringe players. In fact, it's what has kept their net spend fairly low compared to the other "top" teams over the years...Solanke, Ibe, Brewster etc.
He is a raw player but simple facts show we have a task to replace the assists from Millar and goals from Aneke.

agreed - wish him all the best and appreciate his effort last year but not disappointed with this in the slightestblackpool72 said:

Lets wait and see about JFC but it will be quite funny if that's the case. I don't know why but it just will be.0

Makes me realise just how much of the actual scouting/recruitment side Gallen must have done if Bowyer's plans are literally "get the band back together" and go back to same old same old.Dizzle said:Bowyer really needs to extend his scouting/recruitment further than SE7.
I can understand why he'd like having people he knows and trusts but at some point surely that ends up being a case of diminishing returns.0 -
Yeah I agree, think £1.3m is a lot of money for someone who hasnt really done much yetAFKABartram said:

If I were a Birmingham fan I would be massively unimpressed with signing a 27 year old L1 player who is out for the season. I get us renewing his deal but I can't understand other teams actually coming in for him and him passing a medical

So, so far Bowyer has taken 1 player that can't play more than 30 mins and another that won't be starting before Xmas at best.
Is he already building a post relegation squad ?1 -

I mean I could understand it if he was a top top player.
But as far as I'm concerned he's only average and following his second major injury there is no guarantee he will be as good as he was.6 -
That's very craftily worded :shirty5 said:Oh Eddie Youds... said:This is it guys.
The sun is shining
The birds are singing
Tommy has landed
& Gallen is about to unveil the new players on the trip to Wales.
Sit back & enjoy the show.
That doesn't mean nothing is going on behind the scenes, and signings are not "imminent".
It just means Friday's print edition had already gone to press ....... and there were no transfer rumours reported in that edition.
That's what it says.

Is he def out for the whole season? Thought it was said he could be back for the new year? Either way, agree it would be a very strange signing for them.Garrymanilow said:If I were a Birmingham fan I would be massively unimpressed with signing a 27 year old L1 player who is out for the season.

Agreed, I think youngsters at "big clubs" are massively overpriced. The likes of Solanke and Brewster were sold for crazy sumsForeverAddickted said:

It's the same "he's at a big club therefore he must be good" bias which explains why Levitt was in the Wales Euro squad2 -
That would be good if he's back by then. But as you say, either way, it's a very strange use of budget for a Birmingham team that will have to think about avoiding relegation as their first priority. I don't see JFC, good as he is, as a player who can appear mid-season and take you from the bottom of the table to safetycolthe3rd said:

Meltdown incoming.3 -
Followed this guy for a while, seems very reliable8 -
Rich Cawley is going to lose a lot of credibility if we sign Mullin

I'm amazed all these players want to go and play for Bowyer again, didn't exactly seem like a happy dressing room at the end of his time here.6

Ageist comment was worse than the depression one imo
Paddy is also a left-arm twirler of rare talent
We're going to sign a dribble wizard who can defend1
