Wolves<\/a>.<\/p>\nBlues were down to 10-men for over an hour after Gardner was sent off in the first half but none of the teams found the edge to claim all three points.<\/p>\n
Speaking after the game, McLeish said: “We want to keep going to get as many points as we can.<\/p>\n
\u201cAfter That type of performance in which we were much better organised than at Anfield last week we are confident we can get some more points.”<\/p>\n
Birmingham were sunk 5-0 after a scintillating performance by Liverpool last week during which Maxi Rodriguez scored a hat-trick and McLeish was happy to have avoided repeating that performance.<\/p>\n
“We were a bit open at Anfield to be honest and I have to take a little bit of the blame for that as well,\u201d McLeish added.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe made individual errors then that just aren’t like us but that can happen in the course of a season.<\/p>\n
“You can have one or two games during a season where the quality of the opposition will punish you 100 per cent.”<\/p>\n
Winger David Bentley, on-loan from Tottenham since January, left the training ground because he was not selected to feature in Blues\u2019 starting XI on Sunday.<\/p>\n
“He won’t be the first one and I think it happens at every club. It’s not something I’ll discuss and I’ll sleep on it,” McLeish said.<\/p>\n
“I understand the players’ disappointment.<\/p>\n
“The others guy that have left before came into training the next day. They don’t stay away forever.<\/p>\n
“David was obviously disappointed to be left out but I’m sure we’ll see him tomorrow.”
