In an ideal world, Hleb would like to return to his former club Arsenal although there have been no moves in this direction.
Hleb has struggled to make an impact at St. Andrew's because of injuries and missed the Carling Cup final triumph over the Gunners with a knee problem.
He said: "Before, I think teams like Birmingham were easy to play with but it is difficult when you play in such teams, not like Arsenal or Barcelona.
"Here you need to just fight and run, not too much passing, and this for me is something new. I have enjoyed it in a way because it is something new.
"This is a different experience although I prefer to play and to enjoy football. But I will give 100% for this club every weekend."
