    Midfield next year

    He’s going through an iffy patch no doubt, like Dasilva had but as Dasilva showed yesterday and various other players have throughout the season, let’s not give up on him just yet. Both could be very useful squad players, even if not first team regulars, next season ps we desperately need more...

    Wolves And Man U

    Also two of the best games I’ve ever been to as a city fan

    Extraordinary Mark Robins after match interview

    Just watched this. Understand a little bit more about why we set up the way we did at the start. More to try to give the players a chance to settle into the game and recover some confidence after Blues loss. Still reckon there’s probably a tinge of regret there though

    Next Season

    I was just about to post elsewhere about yesterdays performance/the fans and also following the quarter final win and play off final, we have really put ourselves back on the football map. Hopefully some players will be thinking ‘I want a bit of that’

    Luis Binks

    Better yesterday 100% but wouldn’t say that over previous performances. Another good young player who can improve though, so if it works within our budget yesterday suggested he’d be worth a go on a permanent

    Midfield next year

    Haha, I know what you mean but it wasn’t just yesterday though, a few have said before that he wants to play in Prem which is obvious and there’s already been clubs sniffing. Hope he stays but wouldn’t be shocked if he doesn’t

    Midfield next year

    He’s a quality young player who’s learning to get up to speed in the English game. His control and manipulation (hard to explain/maybe the wrong word) of the ball is exceptional

    Midfield next year

    I think assuming ohare is leaving (still hope not) you can maybe play all three, with Torp further forward. Unfortunately I’m also worried that sheaf will be gone as he’ll have plenty of suitors after yesterday and by some accounts wants to test himself at a higher level

    Match Thread Coventry City v Manchester United - FA Cup Semi-Final

    It was as soon as we set up though Pete, even before the game most of us were saying if we sit deep their better players will cause us problems so we may as well have a good go at their weaknesses. We dominated Wolves by playing a four. Most Prem clubs don’t like it when you get at them. We let...

    Match Thread Coventry City v Manchester United - FA Cup Semi-Final

    Yep, for all Robins brilliance (and he is a truly amazing manager for us) he set us up wrong. We were all saying it even before the first goal and then again at half time. Their weakness was the defence/defensive midfield area, you can get at them and cause problems as we proved second half, but...

    What come back. To get that game and wolves win in one season was a unbelievable, albeit a cruel, sickening way to lose What a second half and injury time though. Amazing game and the all did us proud

    Free hit, enjoy the day etc

    Keep it tight for first 20 and you just never know. Unfortunately we’ve been leaky AF at the start of too many games recently More enjoyable feeling than heading down for the play off final. It is a free hit but can’t help starting to think ‘what if’…. Enjoy the day all. Days like today just...

    Next years budget

    Wrights 7.8m Kitching 4m+ Simms 3.5m+ MvE 3.5m Thomas 2m Saka 1.5m Collins 0.5m Agents fees etc. already over initial Vik fee. Not to mention probably increase in average wage in squad

    Next years budget

    Mason Clark and Torp as well. Probably a bit left but can’t imagine it would be significant enough for big squad changes.
