He only missed out in the last Wales friendly because him and Myhill alternate playing in friendlies…wouldn’t read too much into him losing his place on that front.

As for the goalie getting the chop in the midst of a dire run, you’re probably right. But Stearman started the last game (unless this was due to an injury to someone else), so after his recent misdemeanour of failing to understand how watches work, might he be liable for the chop?

“Brum aren’t exactly blessed up front?” On paper, you’d think that statement was ridiculous. In reality, other than Phillips who has offered his usual little else bar several key goals, the rest of their strikers have failed to shine.

As for the Brum formation, it’s one of those where some might call it 4-3-3 but when they don’t have the ball it’s as negative as possible!

As for Higgs he’s on loan till the end of December, so literally he’s there to warm the bench if Ikeme or Hennessey get injured me thinks, and to work with our keepers I guess, I’ve got no idea about him, I’m sure he’s picked up something useful at the age of 31.

Hennessey isn’t going anywhere to be honest, if he went he wouldn’t go anywhere better than Wolves, ie he’d be on the bench for the top half of the table, and to be honest…he’s not that great right now. I’m sure he’ll come good but he’s a bit of a liability at times, great shot stopper, but no real command of his box or defence at times, you feel Prem bosses know this which is why we’ve yet to have any offers, yes, plenty of scouts and piffle in papers yet no ones come up to us and said “here’s 5 million quid, can we have your keeper?” It’s only cause he’s British…his price is inflated and everyone thinks he’s great. He aint alllll that.
