Birmingham City Manager Chris Davies: Gbam! We Get Work to Do

Birmingham, UK – As the Championship kicks off, one man dey feel the heat pass: Chris Davies, the gaffer for Birmingham City. Na him wey sabi, and e don talk plenty about wetin he go do as dem dey prepare to face Swansea City, one match wey fit shake the table.

Davies get proper Welsh heritage for im papa side and e don build im career for South Wales, na from there e come sabi how to lead teams. He even follow Brendan Rodgers carry Swansea City enter Premier League back for 2011. But last season, dem call am twice to take over Swansea, but e no gree. Instead, he choose to flex im muscles for Spurs before finally landing for City. E say, “Timing no jam well those times, but I fit see dem dey shine this season.” (E no dey shy to give them kudos, abi?)

Now, as Davies dey look towards this match with Swansea, na wetin dey worry am be say two teams dey share similar problem: dem dey like control ball, solid for defense, but when e reach to create chances, na wah! Both teams na some of the five wey never score from set pieces this season. E don talk say, “Our defensive corners don dey shine like sunshine, but set pieces na the matter wey dey pepper us. We dey train am well, but you know as e be sometimes.” (Fingers crossed, dem go sabi handle am well soon.)

Swansea don start the season well, but Davies dey hope say his team go find fire for attack. The Blues don fail to score in their last two league matches, and na serious matter. “We dey work on how we go fit dey unpredictable for other teams, quicken our attacks and make sure the dangerous players dey see more ball for final third.” Davies talk this matter for press conference, wey dem dey call meet-up for journalists. (Chai, na pressure, no be small!)

One player wey everybody dey talk about na Tommy Doyle, wey join from Wolverhampton Wanderers. E land for Birmingham like star boy, but fitting am into the lineup no easy at all. Davies don try to fit am in two positions: number six and number ten, but e dey face competition from Iwata and Paik. Now he don move am to number ten but na wah. “He fit deliver creativity wey I dey like, e get am, but formation dey matter too.” (E must try balance am well before he dey finish all of us!)

Birmingham City management don remind fans say dem no dey tolerate bad behavior for match days. As dem dey prepare for their match against Swansea, dem don drop statement wey talk say “Zero-tolerance policy no be joke!” Fans don show serious support, but some wahala don happen wey no reflect the club values. Dem warn say any bad behavior fit lead to serious consequences. E go pain dem if e affect the whole fans. (Make everybody shine eyes, no be koko wey dem wan carry come!)

With all these matters, we dey hope say Blues go show strong performance this weekend. As dem dey gather for St Andrew’s, all eyes go dey on dem say wetin dem go do! Go Blues!
