Re: Where would Blues be IF...

I always think back to the season when we signed Heskey, Melchiot, Forssell on another loan, Gronkjaer, Izzett etc.
We had dreadful luck with injuries right at the start of the season which ended up ruining a potentially good season on where we looked to build on our PremierLeague status & we were looking to move forwards.
Injuries to key quality players like Mikael Forssell, Muzzy Izzett & David Dunn really hurt us.
At the start of the season I was so hyped thinking of Forssell & Heskey playing together, I thought Heskeys knock downs & Forssell skill with finishing would be fruitful upfront. David Dunn who imo is probably one of the most gifted players I’ve seen play for Blues had another frustrating season of injuries, I thought if he could stay fit we would be a huge threat going forwards supplying Forssell & Heskey with players like Gronkjaer joining also just adds to our attacking threat.
You could also see Muzzy Izzett looked a quality player when fit but he had awful luck with injuries too once he signed for us, I always remember that goal against Bolton in off the bar.
I always look back at that season as where we really could of kicked on in the premier league but it just wasn’t to be.
