The Birmingham Power Shift
Why on earth do people think this lad is one of our best players?
There's been absolutely nothing to suggest it?
Nobody in England even gave him a sniff.
He's clearly a talented player, but it was the wrong signing at the wrong time by a Chief Scout and Manager who were clearly poles apart in their thinking.
Still, if it wasn't for his free kick at Rotherham, we might be in the 3rd division
Said this on twitter Bob - Zola had absolutely nothing to do with signing Frei
Right, fair enough. The bit about the manager and the Chief Scout being poles apart still stands I reckon
Everything that was wrong at the time with the club. Manager having no say in signing players. That's why Rowett wouldn't sign his contract and was looking around. And I don't blame him. I suspect the owners have finally realised their huge mistake and have now decided to let the new manager make his own decisions. You can be sure Harry wouldn't still be here if they hadn't agreed to that.
