Can Birmingham City Keep Their International Gems? Will THESE Stars STICK AROUND in League One? #90
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 27 มิ.ย. 2024
- Birmingham City's relegation to League One was a massive blow to the club, which has left a big question mark hanging over their international stars. Will Krystian Beilek, Koji Myoshi, Paik, Juninho Bacuna and Jordan James choose to stick around and help the Blues fight for promotion back to the Championship? Or will the lure of offers from clubs in higher leagues be too strong to resist?
In this podcast we discuss the future of Birmingham City's international contingent and answer the questions of whether we think they will stay and indeed do we actually want then to stay.

Wouldn't worry me if they all went. They are all responsible for getting us in this position, they had ample chances to get us put of the trouble we were in. Just would like to see some committed players come in, it's all getting a bit boring now, need to see some action
@@KeithWard-dz2yf Thank you for your comment Keith. We definitely need some players with the right character that is for sure. That was the problem last season and played a massive part in us being relegated. KRO
@SmallHeathAllianceFC I will say this tho , I remember the last time we were down there under Barry Fry, places like Stockport, Grimsby, Charlton, Tranmere, anybody players or supporters who think it's going to be an easy ride, are in for a very rude awakening . I hope he signs players who are up for battle, because last year's players wasnt
@@KeithWard-dz2yf thanks Keith. I remember that too, it was fun though under Barry wasn’t it! His philosophy was brilliant, he didn’t mind us conceding 4 goals as long as we scored five! I have some great memories of our last time in the third tier and I hope we get the same experience again! KRO and kind regards (Gary)
Some managers are better than others at getting players to fight for the club. Perhaps we should take a punt on keeping Bacuna up until January to see if Davies can get him to deliver his best every time. Sometimes a little personal chemistry works wonders. Given the managerial and tactical chaos of last season, some players were bound to feel unappreciated and demotivated at times. They aren't all robots - at least not until around 2052.
Thanks for commenting and really valid point :)
I totally agree that there is no doubt the manager situation last year had a huge impact. In fact if you took the PPG average for Mowbray, Rowett and Eustace we would have been a top half team. Madness really when you think about it!
But yeah I agree and all players are different. They respond to different styles of management and communication etc and having so many managers would have had a huge impact.
My sentiment of only having players that want to play for this club is really important for me. I want to see passion and fight next season :)
Thanks again. Very best and KRO!
(Matt)
I'd keep Myoshi, Bielik and paik but wouldnt miss any of the others .
Thanks, Tony! :)
I think the biggest and most key for me personally is Bielik but totally agree with the others mentioned as well. I think if we keep hold of them 3 we are following the "Championship ready" theory that the board have mentioned.
Very best, KRO!
(Matt)
We need players that put a spring in your step to want to get down there and watch them for me growing up it was Simon Sturridge, Nigel Gleghorn, Jonathan Hunt, Jose Dominguez, Peter Ndlovu, Paul Devlin, Bryan Hughes and Stan Lazaridis to name a few! We have been starved of these types of players for years and years!
Spot on fella!
Thank you for your comment Paul. Absolutely. You mention some fantastic players who I remember very well, all players who fought for the club and were big fan favourites. We really could do with some similar characters in the squad that is for sure. KRO and kind regards (Gary)
I think keep most we can Bacuna I think is too inconsistent and wouldn't be upset if he left, Myoshi and Paik are good technical players we need to keep.
Thank you for your comment. I’m on the fence about keeping Bacuna and Myoshi but definitely Paik and Beilek need to stay. KRO and kind regards (Gary)
Totally agree with your comments 💙💙💙KRO
Thanks so much Neil :)

Thank you for your comment Paul. KRO and kind regards (Gary)
Koji Myoshi should honour his contract, as Japanese pride themselves on honour , Afterall we did give him his opportunity
Thanks for commenting Phil :)
I think some championship teams might come in for Koji but lets see what happens this summer. CB might be able to really work with him this preseason and get him fired up for anther year with us!
Very best, KRO!

Totally agree love the channel
Thank you for your comment John, that is greatly appreciated. KRO and kind regards (Gary)
Great video lads. Have a great weekend 🍺
Thank you so much that is greatly appreciated. KRO and kind regards (Gary)
To be honest, a good clear out would be a good thing
Thank you for your comment Nick. To be honest I think that is exactly what will happen. I think we will see a few more players leaving and lots of new players coming in to fill all the positions. It should be an exciting transfer window! KRO and kind regards (Gary)
I think we will keep the 3 I want to see stay, Miyoshi, paik and bielik
Thank you for your comment. If I had to pick three to stay, they are the ones I would choose as well. KRO and kind regards (Gary)
International gems that relegated us ! Wipe the board clean and start again. KRO.
Thank you for your comment David. That may well be the case but I can't see us getting rid of all five, It's possible but as we said in the video we would particularly like to see Beilek and Paik stay. We will see! KRO and kind regards (Gary)
Rumours that hannibal is available would be a great signing full of energy two young pacy forwards woundnt that be nice Kro😅😅😅
This is the second comment that has mentioned Hannibal today. I did hear this a few weeks ago but then it seemed to die down. He would be an absolute machine in League 1 if he can keep his temperament and late kicks under control. I would love to see him back.
Very best, KRO!
(Matt)
He adds that energy, shithousery and quality to a team. He loved playing for us and even though it normally took him 3 seconds to get a booking he got the crowd riled up too which adds that extra boost to the players and atmosphere. Loved him at blues.
Davies in my opinion is not going cap in hand not that type of manager. My view is Davies is getting his head around these players, are they up for the fight he'll weigh them up and clear the ones who are not up for it. Cap in hand never KRO
Thank you for your comment. That’s a good point, it will be up to Chris Davies in the end in terms of which players stay and which players go. I’m sure Chris Davies will have already made his assessment and will know who he wants to keep and who he would be prepared to let go. KRO and kind regards (Gary)
Just seen the blues feed on Instagram. The garrison box to box and city view. I know fans want players etc etc but the redevelopment of the facilities is eyeopening
Thank you for your comment Kevin. Yes, I saw that and it is all very impressive. You can't deny that the owners have spend a fortune on the current stadium and it will be unrecognisable from the crumbling, half open stadium they inherited.
I know fans are impatient for signings, however I just know that we will soon start to see new signings, and these will be high quality. I suspect that the fact we are in League One is not helping with some negotiations but I'm sure we will all be happy by the end of the transfer window. KRO and kind regards (Gary)
Great video it will be interesting to see how it pans out who the manager wants to keep and if he can get them to stay I have an open mind on who stays because as we’ve seen before different managers bring out the best in some players
Thanks, mate, appreciate the kind words as always :)
I agree that players with an open mind will see this club is on the rise again and building back up from this season so they might move being short-sighted and wanting to go back to championship football and that is their prerogative but I think staying put will serve the majority of them for the best.
As we said in the video, however, regardless of international or not, if you don't want to play for this club, you can be shown the door :)
Very best, KRO!
(Matt)
Good podcast again boys i hope we sale them all that got us relegated £10 mill for jj would be great business for the club he was very poor last season like the rest of them. if the cant fight for our great club good buy K.R.O.
Thanks, Kevin! Appreciate the kind words :)
Yeah, we agree he has been overrated and definitely had poor spells last season. He has come on a lot over the years but for £10 million I would personally see us laughing all the way to the bank on this one. I personally see it being closer to £5 million.
Great last point. If you don't want to fight or bother turning up then good riddance.
Very best, KRO!
(Matt)
Not getting 10m for JJ now. £5m at best. He aint all that tbh no big loss. Neither is Hall. Average at best.
Although not always constructive in these discussions I can't resist throwing out names from the my Blues past which could be the inspiration or templates for a True Blues player..my first game. Montgomery in goal, Pendrey, Page,Big Joe G and TF score..my first season ticket year '83-84 we had Tony's got his coat on in goal, the passions of Blake, Van Den Hauwe, Hoppo and Brian Roberts to name but a few who really epitomised when you sing Keep Right On what it means to play for our badge in the true sense of the word..any players we get now need to get close to this ideal..then the crowd can get back to it's passionate best as we begin this upwards journey.KRO..other players since have had these qualities..we know who they are.
Thank you for your comment Dougie and what memories! I remember all the players you mention and many of the players where in the team when I first started watching Blues myself. Great memories of great times! KRO and kind regards (Gary)
My guess is they will try and make an offer for a big name player who’s probably past his best but will likely get publicly
Thanks for commenting! Really appreciated :)
Let's get Rooney back but this time as a player. Imagine that! 😂🙈
In all seriousness, I think you might be right. It will be a balance of youth, speed and hunger but also having some experience and mature shoulders, possibly in the form of a big name.
Very best, KRO!
(Matt)
Agreed!! KRO
Thank you for your comment. KRO and kind regards (Gary)
Hopefully farewell to Pritchard, JJ will only stay if we give him the freedom/game time that he had under Rooney and of course Bielik ticks all of the boxes if he stays provided that he stays free of injury and is played as a defensive midfielder. Not too bothered about anyone else staying, but I would love to see Hannibal back. So what if he gets sent off a few times as Roy Keane did for Man Utd. Hannibal gets us as a club and gets us as supporters. I can live in hope! KRO
Thank you for your comment Chris. It looks like Pritchard will be on his was and given the speculation JJ won’t be far behind him. Pritchard has been a real none starter for the Blues and after Mowbray stepped down it was only a matter of time before he left.
I’m not sure of our chances of signing Hannibal but if we could get him back that would be an amazing signing. KRO and kind regards (Gary)
Good listen again. Agree with most of it. However shame again that our most promising prospect JJ is going. The owner's have been great so far, but it would be a real statement of intent if we kept our best youngsters.
I don't think this constant selling of our younger players is good for the future of the club. KRO FEA
Thanks Eamon! Really appreciated :)
I do agree that constantly selling your youngsters isn't great for the future and we do definitely need to start keeping hold of the really promising ones that start to come through. It's the core foundations and the future of the club on the pitch effectively. Thankfully we have a brilliant academy system which has produced some real talent over the years.
Just my personal opinion here in regards to JJ specifically that I am hearing the rumours be a £7-10 million price range and although he is only a youngster and we've seen progression especially this season, he is still an overrated player. It might be because he constantly get's played out on the wing and that just isn't his position. Either way, will be interesting to see what happens there.
Very best, KRO!
(Matt)
Definitely keep Beilik, Myoshi, and Paik. I don't think you have to go cap in hand and say please stay.
Thanks mate :)
Yeah totally agree. Those 3 could do some serious damage in League 1 and 100% if no player wants to stay this season then they can leave. No passengers or rubbish attitudes this season. I think CB will set this precedent early doors anyway.
Very best, KRO!
(Matt)
Depends who wants them and how much they are willing to pay. Would imagine they will stay then reassess their position at end of season
Thanks, David :)
Yeah, this is a really valid point. I think all of them might have teams sniffing around them this summer but as you say on our clubs terms / if the price is right. I also think the majority will stay and see where we are this time next year.
Very best, KRO!
(Matt)
In Chris Davies we have to trust. I get the impression that he won't suffer fools gladly. I don't agree that by having a conversation with the international players we're going cap in hand and all the power is with the player, plus if we were to get promoted and hopefully promoted again from the Championship ASAP then the club will think of nothing of getting rid of those players because they're not the desired quality for the Premier League so it cuts both ways. Whatever is decided and when, ideally has to right and best for both parties.
Last season was awful and it's time to draw a line under that now and trust the new manager and his team. If any player wants to move on then the club just need to get the right and best price and if they want to stay then they need to get their head down, work hard and give their all for the club.
Bielik doesn't need to worry about his international football career as he isn't in the current squad, so I'm sure that this is a factor in his decision to stay. Personally, I think Bielik is overrated. I think he's slow and I think he will be found wanting for pace, but I hope I'm wrong. I don't think he's the best communicator so he wouldn't be my captain. I do agree that he's a better centre half than he is a centre midfielder and he's physically strong but if he stays he stays and if he was to move on I would be ok with that too. Personally, I think he will stay and whilst he wouldn't be my choice for captain, there's a chance he might be given the current list of candidates. Personally, I would like us to sign a proper leader both in terms of how they play and how they communicate.
I think JJ is under appreciated, he's one of our own and when played in the middle he is a very influential player. I'm not comparing him to Foden but look at the difference in level of performance between club and country. Play players in their best position. The clubs sniffing around JJ tells you that he’s a proper player. As much as I don't like Rooney, he was a proper player and he really rated JJ. Personally I think he will go, so the club just needs to get the best price for him.
Bacuna if he was consistent would be a proper player, but that's the difference between being a player and a proper player. For me Bacuna is better more than he's not. Again he another player that needs to play in his best position on a consistent basis to get the best out of him and best for the team. At times he's frustrating yes, but if he can find thar consistent form of a lot more good than OK or bad then I would love him to stay, I hope he does.
Paik is a keep for me. He is a holding midfielder who can dictate the play. Rowett played him out of position at times and that didn't work for him or the team, right position and he's right for Blues and one for League One and the Championship. I hope he stays. I have no idea if he will or not, but I don't doubt his commitment if he was to stay.
Miyoshi is someone that I would like to keep. He has the legs and energy that you need as part of a balanced team. He has an eye for goal, he just needs to find that consistency but I think with a steady and stable management team, I think he will be a very important player for Blues in League One. He has pace and he can hurt opposition teams with that and it looks like he has the type of character that we want and need.
I don't think Blues will keep any player that doesn't want to be part of the project (I don't like that word 🤣) but equally apart from JJ who I think out of the international players is the one that gets the biggest move by some distance, then I think the remaining 4 would be crazy to leave Blues. Next summer there's no international tournament/competition as far as I'm aware so that's not an immediate consideration with regards to missing out on an international place that in a big tournament.
I think the players and the club have one season to see how it goes, if it's only one season in League One which we all hope it will be (no guarantees of course) then that's not bad at all in the overall picture of things.
Brilliant video again gents. KRO 💙
Thanks, Richard. Always look forward to your comments and insights :)
In Chris Davies, we trust indeed. I also agree that he will set a precedent from the start and will not want any passengers or will not tolerate any bad apples spoiling the cart. He will nip that in the bud and to be honest, no matter how big or good the player if they don't want to play, battle and give everything for this club I would get sold anyway. In League 1 we need a team who are up for every game and want to win every ball.
Interesting take on Bielik and JJ it seems we have slightly opposing opinions on these to some extent. Those are fair points though, totally respect your point of view; this is why we love football and this club. All about opinions. I think JJ is having offers because of his age, international status now and the fact he most certainly has come on leaps and bounds this past year. I personally think my opinion of him being overrated stems from him being out of position most of the season. Out on the wing, he is significantly less effective. I would personally still take the rumoured £7-10 million. It's a difficult one cause someone raised a really good point about not making a habit of selling all your best young talent when they are so young. This is how you build the foundations of the club and a bright future.
Totally agree about Bacuna. It is the consistency as to why I have a love/hate relationship as a fan. No doubt on his day he is a quality player but those days just aren't consistent enough for me.
I agree with the comments about Paik and Miyoshi but would just add I think they could both do with a bit more physicality. They were getting shrugged off the ball far too easily in those last few games of the season for me.
You've ended the comment perfectly I think the club and players have one season to see how it goes. I feel this is the mindset of several players. That isn't a negative just re-iterating what you said about international tournaments etc.
Very best Richard, KRO!

@SmallHeathAllianceFC Hi Matt. It's very, very rare that I don't fully agree with you and your Dad. You're right about your channel. It provides a platform that, as fans, we can listen to and read what others think, and your channel is the best around for doing this.
I don't disagree with your valuation of JJ and if we get 7 - 10 million if he does move on then that's decent money in the overall scheme of things, but personally I would really like him to stay but I highly doubt it. I do judge him on his performances in the middle, out on the left he is wasted and also it's a waste of time putting him out there.
I like the fact that we can have a difference of opinion but do so in such a respectful way.
It will be interesting to see who is still at the club and what new faces we have for the season ahead once the summer transfer window is slammed shut. There's always the January transfer window of course.
It's fair to say that we still have a lot of business to do before the season kicks off.
Thank you as always for taking the time and making the effort to respond to not only mine but to all the other comments too. You and your Dad are doing a brilliant job and that's reflected in your ever increasing popularity and the positive feedback that you get on a regular and consistent basis.

As Morpheus said , and Davies probably repeated to each of these - This is your last chance. After this, there is no turning back

@SmallHeathAllianceFC ideal scenario from me would be if we can keep Bielek, Paik and Myoshi, add a couple of forwards using the fees from JJ and Bacuna, we could smash this league...
Would love Bielik,Koji and Paik to stay. Hopefully Buchanan and Laird stick with us too as I think that would give us a nucleus of a good and exciting team to watch for the coming season. Agree with you both to cash in on JJ,we could possibly bring in a couple of players with the money. KRO
Thanks for commenting :)
I think if the majority of our defence sticks around (Assuming Bielik is CB) we would have the strongest defence in the league. If we can get someone to partner KB we would seriously be tough to break down.
Looking forward to getting some players in the door this summer and finally getting some momentum in the pre-season.
Very best, KRO!

@@SmallHeathAllianceFC
You're really not a fan of Dion are you Matt :D
I would keep Myoshi, Paik, Bieilk if Bacuna and Jordan James leave I won't be unhappy I agree with you guys if you don't want to be here please leave and Chris Davies can get players that want to play for the badge.
I've just subscribed KRO
Thank you for your comment Chris, thank you for subscribing and welcome to our Channel.
Out of the five I would also pick Bieilk and Paik to stay. With Myoshi I hope he stays but I don't think it would be a disaster if he moved on. I think the same with Bacuna as well. I definitely think we will see JJ moving as there is a lot of interest in him. KRO and kind regards (Gary)
Looks like Pritchard's on his way ,no loss , if jucky hasn't signed by Monday withdraw offer ,and as for the rest by next week we will know who,s out next , I want hungry players .
Thanks Harvey!
"Hungry players" love it and totally agree. In League 1 we need a slightly different pedigree and battle and that as you say means hunger, desire and some passion!
Yeah, Pritchard didn't show us anything last season that would make us miss him. Very underwhelming spell at the club. As you say, no loss for me on that. Won't lose an ounce of sleep!
Very best, KRO!
(Matt)
Out of the 5 internationals here are my thoughts:
Juninho Bacuna - would be gutted to see him leave as he is versatile and clearly respects the club with his instagram posts and several performances last year (Southampton at home springs to mind). He does need to be more consistent though lads agreed.
Koji Miyoshi - indifferent as he clearly has the quality but in such a physical league would he adapt well? I would rather want him to stay as he is an X-Factor for our team but wouldn’t be too upset with him going.
Krystian Bielik - clearly shows his commitment to the team and he’s improved ever since slotting in centre half, I would want him to stay and like Matt says make him captain.
Jordan James - contrary to the majority I would want him to stay as he made leaps and bounds last season even though he was played out of position, losing him would just be typical blues losing our young talents.
Seung Ho Paik - out of all these players I can’t see the hype (scores one banger in the World Cup and people think he’s amazing). Bang average in my opinion, I don’t understand how he’s made it to the South Korean national team just based on last season. Hope I’m wrong and he comes out blasting this season but wouldn’t be mad if he left.
Thanks for commenting in such detail and taking the time really appreciated :)
Fair point about Bacuna to be fair. He is versatile and from memory was the only player who came out and actually apologised for last season. Of course, it's all about opinion and I personally would take the cash as I think the positions he fills could be replaced quite easily with some really exciting talent.
Good point about Miyoshi and his physicality. We worry about this as well but could be a great asset in League 1.
Bielik - 100% captain material in there.
Fair point about JJ. I do agree he has really come on leaps and bounds but I do feel the hype is slightly overrated. If the money rumour is true I feel we would be laughing all the way to the bank if we sold.
Paik - I quite like Paik. I don't think we saw the best of him after Mowbray had to take his sick absence from the club. I think there is a player in there and hopefully, CB can get the best out of him.
Thanks again mate, really appreciate the comment!
Very best, KRO!
(Matt)
@@SmallHeathAllianceFC no worries Matt thanks for the reply! Realistically how much do you reckon we could get for bacuna, I’m thinking £2-3m would be a good deal considering he arrived for £800k(?). Keep up the good work, one of the only sensible blues channels out there.
I think £1.5 to £2 Million is about right. KRO
Unfortunately, there’s little loyalty from most players. Practically, I’d only want to keep Bielik (as centre half), Miyoshi and Paik. Bacuna and JJ are decent players, but I think it’s time we moved them on and get some cash in. I’m hearing speculation we’re getting Hannibal back on loan - which would be a fantastic appointment.
Thanks Stephen! :)
I totally agree and I think we would get pretty decent money for Bacuna and JJ as well. I heard something about Hannibal about a month ago now. It seemed to have died down. Is that now back on the table?
Very best, KRO!

If your right about Hannibal then he's out of contract next summer 😁 so get him on loan then sign him on a free next summer 👌 😁 I'd love that ... KRO
Thanks Richard!

@@richardeustace2071 agreed 👍
Hi , i personally dont think any of those players are good enough for the championship. They got us relegated, move them on and start fresh . KRO.
Thank you for your comment Paul. It will be interesting to see which if the five internationals stays and who goes and in fact it will very much be decided by Chris Davies in the end. KRO and kind regards (Gary)
I wasn't a great fan of Jorden James but I gradually began to warm to him and sometime I was impressed. But what did it for me, is just after we were relegated he was walking around the pitch laughing and joking and appeared to not care. To me he hasn't got the right character and passion to be at Blues and needs to go. KRO
Thank you for your comment Eddie. I would be really surprised if JJ stayed. The speculation in January clearly affected him and I think he has had his head turned and will probably want to go onto new pastures.
We should get a decent fee for him so if he does leave we can use that money to help strengthen the squad. KRO and kind regards (Gary)
Pritchard on his way good riddance bad attitude Bacuna Dembele can go has well when it come hard graft not up to it.
Yeah, I didn't rate Pritchard. He didn't show us very much to get excited about anyway, that's for sure.
Anyone with a bad attitude needs to be sold this season. We need to come out this year and make a statement that we mean business and that means having a team of battlers and fighters :)
Very best, KRO!
(Matt)
All these players should stay at blues because they owe us they got us relegated get us back in the championship then they can go zuluuuu
Thanks for the comment :)
Yeah, I guess in some regards they got us here, they can get us out. It was only Bacuna who actually had the guts to apologise and say something once the season finished.
Having said that, I don't want anyone who isn't willing to fight and battle next season. CD will set this precedent early doors I think when they fully commence pre-season.
Very best, KRO!
(Matt)
I agree with Matt JJ is slightly overrated too slow and not enough quality on the ball yet
Thank you for your comment and kind regards (Gary)
Sorry but players are workers, if offered more wages and better deals anyone would consider it, Davies has the job to convince them they are better off and gauge where they are at, that is not cap in hand to them. Be realistic they are not Blues fans they are doing their job to look after their loved ones like we all would. I am sure Mr Davies will sort it out.
Thanks for commenting! Always appreciated :)
Valid point. If I was on £5K a week and someone then offered me £10K a week I would of course consider it. (I do not earn that sort of money btw just relating it to footballers salary 😂)
Thankfully now we have come to the end of the FFP cycle and finances can be loosened a little we can offer very competitive and attractive wages etc.
They may not be Blues fans I get that but this season I want to see a lot more fight than we did last season. The passion was seriously lacking in certain areas and at certain times and I know we could talk about manager turnover and lots of other things that happened and I get that but this year I want a squad who want the fight and battle! :)
Very best, KRO!
(Matt)
JJ has done nothing since his head was turned in January, got a good long shot on him, but thats about it for me... grab the money, get him gone
Thanks, Phil!
Yeah, he certainly had an underwhelming second half of the season. Part of that was the Atalanta deal not going through and also him constantly being played out of position and on the wing. This used to drive me insane, he was ineffective out wide in most games.
ANY player who doesn't want to turn up next season and show some fight can leave. I think CB will set this precedent really early on :)
Very best, KRO!
(Matt)
Agree take the money and run. He isn’t that great. Same with George Hall. Average at best
Yes to bilked the Asian lads to light weight try and get jams and Stanfield on paper dembele very over rated
Thanks for commenting :)
It’s going to be an interesting summer transfer window let’s be sure. We need to start getting some momentum now. I have a feeling dembele will be a player that leaves.
