Bennett MOTM easily. Very impressive

Agreed. Blackman for First Half. Bennett for Second and Overall.

Anya, Weimann and Elsnik all looked good.

It's a good job you did miss the first half!! The likes of Bryson, Hanson, Bent, Russell and Wisdom were poor. I was very disappointed particularly with Russell because he's got no excuses now that he is able to play in his favoured right mid role. Surpringly, Blackman was probably our best player in the first half alongside Davies.

Seems I didn't miss anything exciting. The last 10 minutes here have been good.

Fitness played a big part I guess, but enjoyed those bursts through the middle.

Well done Mason, must have played his way into Rowett's thoughts for the season. 

He, Blackman and Weimann (and I guess Anya) all looking useful. I'm still not convinced any are the solution for the wide spots given our aims, but you can see them playing important roles over the course of the season.

If we were only to sign one winger it would be Weimann of our existing players I'd put my faith in to fill the other spot. Russell down to 5th choice for me.

Elsnik continues to look assured and I'd trust him in the first team if needed.

Very pleased with Bennett's performance today in the second half. Looked a threat and was making things happen throughout the half. Hopefully he continues with this level of performance during the rest of preseason and into the start of the new season.

Tbh I'd put "Vacancy" in Butterfields position there. Both he and Bryson have been pretty poor so far this pre-season.

Who?

Jack Storer. Ex-Brum who's on trial.

He was funnily enough sent off for violent conduct I recall for Birmingham against Wolves a season or two ago, when Rowett was manager.

He seemed like a bit of a d*ck then too.

So far:

             Carson
Baird Keogh Davies Olsson
        Johnson Bryson
Anya      Bennett    Weimann
              Martin

That's my pick over the two games. Will be interested to see who gets picked.

Would like to see Thorne or Huddlestone play next to Brad in midfield with that front four. Elsnik was tidy, but I would like to see him get a season long loan, playing a full season.
