00:00 And on Birmingham City, I imagine a change of things there.
00:03 Where can they realistically finish now?
00:05 Because we've seen this brilliant start for their recent history in the Championship this season.
00:11 Where do you believe they can get to this season?
00:15 I genuinely think they could be playoff contenders as early as this season.

00:21 And we've seen some pretty crucial ones already.
00:23 Ethan Laird and Lee Buchanan recently, Keshie Anderson as well.

00:33 But they're still sixth. They're still getting those results.
00:36 The last two matches in particular, the goals have been flying in.
00:39 Under Wayne Rooney, it's expected it's going to be fast-flowing, attacking football.

00:52 The likes of Southampton, West Brom, Middlesbrough will be pushing up.
00:56 It might be just outside the playoffs this year, but next,
00:59 I think they could be really on the tails of those in the top six.
