Zigic goal will raise morale - McLeish
Birmingham boss Alex McLeish believes £6million-pound striker Nikola Zigic will have gained a major boost after scoring for the second time in two games in the victory over Blackpool.
The Serbian international followed up his goal against Arsenal by netting the decisive second in a 2-0 win over the Seasiders - City's first league win in seven games.
Zigic has taken time to adjust to the Premier League since his move from Valencia during the summer but there are signs he is coming to terms with the top flight in England.
McLeish said: "Goals give strikers confidence and this will have been another big boost for the big fellow.
"He has taken time to adjust to the English style of play but we are not starting to see some sharpness from everyone in the front areas - including Nikola.
"As well as scoring goals himself he will also create chances for others and Nikola and Garry O'Connor did well together up front."
