Birmingham City boss Chris Davies admits that the season-long signing of Canada international striker Liam Millar is one that has been on his wish list for some while.
Millar's deadline-day arrival from Hull City was actually announced mid-match on a mad night at St Andrew's while Blues were drawing 1-1 with Southampton.
After trailing at half-time, Davies was pleased to get a point which might have been more had his side taken their chances - but he was even more pleased to finally link up with 26-year-old Millar.
"I've been a big admirer of Liam Millar for a long time," Davies told BBC Radio WM. "I've tried to get him in a few transfer windows now - but never been able to.
"He's a player with a lot of experience of this league. We've had to be patient and finally we've got him. And the fact that he's coming to us says a lot, as he had a lot of options."
