Carlos Vicente was Player of the Match in Birmingham City’s win over Wrexham<\/p>\n
Carlos Vicente is showing his worth in the Championship after taking a while to get his feet under the table at Birmingham City.<\/a><\/p>\n That was the verdict of Chris Davies<\/a> after his \u00a37million winger ran riot in Sunday\u2019s showdown with Wrexham at St Andrew\u2019s @ Knighthead Park.<\/a><\/p>\n Vicente<\/a> notched his first goal at his new home with a well-placed header early in the second half before Blues skipper Christoph Klarer<\/a> made the points safe.<\/p>\n The Spaniard has now scored in back-to-back games and has three goals since swapping La Liga for the Championship in January.<\/p>\n FOLLOW ON FACEBOOK! <\/strong>All the latest Blues news on Birmingham Live\u2019s Birmingham City FC Facebook page<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n \u201cHe was excellent,\u201d said Davies. \u201cHe had a big job on his hands up and down the line with the wing-back, which I was trusting him to do \u2013 he\u2019s really diligent and works hard \u2013 then as a winger, I love to see them scoring at the back post.<\/p>\n \u201cThat\u2019s where all your goals are. You just say it over and over, \u2018Arrive at the back post, arrive at the back post\u2026\u2019 whether it\u2019s a volley or a tap-in, but with the head, even better.<\/p>\n \u201cHe is showing his adaptation to this league. This league can make a really good player look really ordinary \u2013 that\u2019s one thing I have seen this season.<\/p>\n \u201cBut he\u2019s showing that he\u2019s adapting from Spain to England and the Championship.\u201d<\/p>\n Vicente is part of a new-look front four that is getting Blues supporters off their seats.<\/p>\n August Priske is acting as the focal point with Vicente, Jay Stansfield and Ibrahim Osman buzzing around behind him.<\/p>\n The presence of 6ft 4in striker Priske and the athleticism of those around him has allowed Blues to play a more direct style in recent games.<\/p>\n Davies commented: \u201cIn the last few games we\u2019ve definitely found a way to get forward quicker, to get more box threat in games, and if it opens a little bit we\u2019ve played.<\/p>\n \u201cYou can only really do it if you\u2019ve got an actual presence and someone with physicality. With August, you\u2019re not going to win every single header but he\u2019s really neat and tidy around the second balls with both feet and his touch.<\/p>\n \u201cHe\u2019s growing game by game in his confidence and today will be big for him.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019ve liked the way we\u2019ve played forward more to be perfectly honest, rather than recycling and playing around too much, which started to become more ineffective for us. We just have to be a good team and play good football \u2013 and that\u2019s effective football.\u201d<\/p>\n Sky Sports, HBO Max, Netflix and Disney+ with Ultimate TV package<\/p>\n
