Birmingham boss McLeish: Jerome proving Premiership class

Birmingham City boss Alex McLeish believes Cameron Jerome is beginning to prove Premiership class.

Jerome scored his first goal of the season against Liverpool just before the international break.

His 30-yard screamer at Anfield was watched by millions live on TV.

And Brum boss Alex McLeish hopes it will be the spark which ignites his £3million striker.

Jerome will lead the attack against Fulham today and McLeish said: "Cameron is looking very lively.

"He is still learning, as are a lot of our players, and they know they have to learn fast.

"He's looking as if he's got great confidence and he's maturing."
