Blues get set-piece mojo back; BLUES NEWS.

BEWARE - Blues have rediscovered their mojo at set-pieces.

Franck Queudrue powered in the winning goal from a corner against Bristol City, and every time Blues got the ball into the danger area, the visitors' goal lived a charmed life.

It was another pleasing aspect to Blues' play as they have not been effective from corners and freekicks for several months.

Queudrue revealed that the personnel available, and some dedicated training ground effort, did the trick.

"Before the game we worked on set-piece movement with Roy Aitken and Andy Watson," he said.

"They told us Queudrue, Marcus Bent and Radhi Jaidi to start as a three and leave Cameron Jerome and Tiny around the 'keeper. They asked one of us to take the middle, the front and the back.

"So we were like swopping and moving, making runs to different areas, and it was very hard for them to defend the corners.

"We hit the crossbar in the first-half from a corner, there were some chances, a clear handball again - it paid off."

Lee Carsley, meanwhile, has saluted the contribution of Stephen Carr in his three appearances to date.

"He's done really well," said Carsley.

"He had a good, long hard think about where he was going after retiring and I'm glad he decided to put his boots back on."
