Ibrahim Osman scored his first goal for Birmingham City in their 2-1 win over Leicester City.
\nThe Ghanaian winger produced another electric performance for Blues in their 2-1 victory over Leicester City at St Andrew\u2019s last Saturday. Osman opened the scoring inside three minutes after robbing Leicester skipper Ricardo Pereira of the ball and finishing smartly past Asmir Begovic.
\nThe 21-year-old continued to torment Pereira in his first full 90 minutes for Blues with seven successful ball carries and five take-ons.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Given the fact Osman played once for Auxerre in the two months before he joined Blues, the on-loan Brighton man has settled better than expected.
\n\u201cWe had high hopes bringing him in but he hadn\u2019t played in the Championship and there\u2019s an adaption there,\u201d said Blues manager Davies.
\n\u201cHe had done well in Holland (with Feyenoord), then he\u2019s gone to France with a different style of play and it\u2019s going to be different here again.
\n\u201cThe talent was clear, the speed and the raw attributes were clear, but how exactly he was going to adapt was on him. He has to take all the credit.
\n\u201cYou can see the outlet he\u2019s got and the acceleration he\u2019s got, but what I love the most and I\u2019ll keep building with him is his work-rate.\u201d<\/p>\n
