Birmingham still have room to grow - Davies

Birmingham City can feel happy with how they have dealt with their return to the Championship but there is still room for improvement, says head coach Chris Davies.

Blues have won three of their opening six games to sit in eighth place in the table, having won the League One title last season.

"It's a hard league - we've had really competitive games but even the ones we've been on the wrong side of, we've been competitive," Davies told BBC Radio WM.

"Every team carries a threat and you have to be strong defensively."

Birmingham visit Coventry on Saturday (12:30 BST) at the start of a week which sees them play three games in six days.

"The general feeling is we're happy with how we've competed but you can also see it's pretty relentless," added Davies.

"We're pleased with how we've adapted but we think there's still room to grow - you need to have a system but enough flexibility to solve different problems."
