Preview of this game. quotes Birmingham boss Steve Bruce will have three players missing for the visit of Liverpool. Aliou Cisse, Olivier Tebily and Darren Purse are still sidelined but Bruce's handful of international players have all returned uninjured. Martin Grainger and Steve Vickers have returned to training although they are not ready to face the Reds but defender Ferdinand Coly is in contention for a place in the squad after recovering from a toe infection. "Blues will probably line up as they did against Chelsea, except that I would expect Morrison to start instead of Horsfield. Blues will be missing through injury: Cisse, Grainger, Purse, Tebily and Vickers. Whilst there is a doubt over Piotr Swierczewski who is suffering with flu."
BIRMINGHAM line-up: N Vaesen, J Kenna, K Cunningham, M Upson, J Clapham, R Savage, S Clemence, S Lazaridis, C Morrison, C Dugarry, D Johnson Subs: I Bennett, P Devlin, G Horsfield, S John, D Carter no Kiro, but Brum are up 1-0 at the half.
Final score Brum 2 - 1 Liverpool Morrison scored, then Owen scored. Brum were the better side by quite a bit.
JK playing on a Premiership team that beat Liverpool soundly......Friedel the best keeper in the Premiership, and a Cup winner....Keller the solid starter at Tottenham... Not many would have predicted this 2 years ago...
I think you mislaid the word "not". Clearly you meant to say "not playing on a premiership team..." and "[M]any would have predicted..." Si?
