    They are not quick enough shmmeee. And half the time they don’t anticipate what is happening.

    They can’t step out and defend the wide channels because they are too slow. They have to stay tucked in because they are aware they will be exposed and isolated, as soon as they step out wide. Bidwell can’t get back if he is caught up field,so doesn’t even try. And MVE busts a gut to get...

    Throw- ins

    Same with free kicks in their half. We invariably take a short free kick and pass it back to a CB. We rarely bring men up and launch the ball into the box. Wouldn’t mind if the short kick was to keep the attack going and moving forward but it never is.

    Highfield Road

    Nah,better off where we are. I first went to Highfield Rd as a child in 1962 and fell in love with football and the city there. I had times I will never forget, but remember the cold winter nights with 7 or 8 thousand souls freezing in silence watching FIRST division football. Let’s be honest...

    Yes but in a 433 the central one of the 3 will be in front of the 2 centre backs protecting them. Don't forget Sheaf has played at centre back in an emergency and he did well. First line of defence and first line of attack I think it’s what he does best, others disagree. The whole point of a...

    We were playing a back 4 without a goalkeeper. Might be different now we have someone in goal.

    71 years old and still getting lessons in grammar on my football forum. FFS you lot grow up and talk about Coventry City fc. I don’t care how you spell owt. Drop yer aiches and stick yer grama where the sun don’t shine. Lampard was asked a simple question, do you want players in. He said he...

    When Sheaf comes back he has got to play the deep role,in the middle just in front of a back four. He would be the first line of defence,I think this would plug the gap in the middle of the defence. It would solve the conundrum between him and Eccles of who should be doing what. Might mean...
