Birmingham City Manager Discusses Tactical Changes for Upcoming Season

Birmingham City is gearing up for the 2026/27 Championship season with ambitions to improve upon last year's 10th-place finish. Manager Chris Davies has shared insights into tactical changes he believes will help the team progress.

The club has seen a surge in support, selling over 20,000 season tickets and having an additional 14,000 on the waiting list. This excitement is fueled by plans to reconnect the club with its community and aspirations to be ready for the Premier League.

Davies noted that last season served as a learning experience, as the team transitioned from League One to the Championship. He emphasized the need for physicality and adaptability in their playing style, which has led to the addition of new players and a focus on set-piece strategies. The team aims to increase their goal tally this season, targeting improvements in scoring from set-pieces and counter-attacks.
