Davies on 'good feel' at Blues and Swansea reunion

Birmingham City boss Chris Davies says there is a "good feel" around the club despite senior players exiting this month.

Striker Lyndon Dykes and winger Keshi Anderson, external have departed in January, with left-back Kai Wagner the only addition so far.

However after a winless spell of seven games, two successive wins, including a 3-2 victory over league leaders Coventry, has the side in a more positive mood.

"We need to make some progress [in the transfer market] next week," Davies told BBC Radio WM.

"We have probably less players available since I've been here but it's the timing of things. What we have seen in the last couple games is a better spirit and there's a galvanised feel to the group.

"Yes, we need more depth to sustain this Championship season but there's a good feel at the moment. I think the wins have helped everyone."

Blues next visit Swansea City in the Championship on Saturday (17:30 GMT) and it is a place Davies knows well.

The Watford-born manager, who earned caps in Wales' youth teams through his father, was assistant manager for then-boss Brendan Rogers during the Swans' promotion to the Premier League in 2011.

"I have a lot of fondness for the club [Swansea]," Davies added.

"My dad is from Llanelli so I know the area and the club pretty well. I'm sure there will be a few familiar faces there."
