The attention of the footballing world turns to Birmingham City today after the club made the surprising decision to part ways with manager John Eustace. The Blues sit sixth in the Championship and suffered just one loss in their last four league games, beating Midlands rivals West Brom 3-1 on Friday night.
Reports suggest Birmingham City have already made contact with Manchester United legend Wayne Rooney, who agreed to mutually terminate his contract with MLS side DC United over the weekend.
Eustace certainly doesn't leave St Andrew's with his reputation ruined and BirminghamWorld looks at the manager's win record compared with the permanent Birmingham City managers of the last decade.
