Obviously, it's too early for anything definite, but having watched the Rotherham game and yesterday's match I felt that the real Michael Cooper was back.
People have different views of stats, but I think goals prevented stats are very telling for keepers.
2024/25 Coops was the 5th rated keeper in the Championship with a good positive +5.7 stat - we earned 92 points
2025/26 Coops was the 21st rated keeper in the Championship with a poor negative -6.8 stat - we earned 60 points
After the Birmingham game Coops is the 3rd rated keeper in the Championship with +0.3 in that game.
So, the stats suggest exactly what the eye is seeing - GoalCooper is back.
If this turns out to be true then we will certainly at least make the playoffs.
