    Blog CCFC Analysis - Ellis Simms - The Enigma

    Simms is at his best when he's driving at players. He's quick for a big man, and strong when he's moving forward. His passing and touch are not his strong points. His finishing is also very good. He's not missed many guilt edged chances over his 2 seasons here.

    Really like it. Glad to be back in all Sky Blue, and the stripes haven't reappeared. A funky Brown away kit now please

    What is happening at centre half?

    Thomas & Kitching (over 2 seasons now) have been the pairing when we've gone on these big unbeaten runs, getting ourselves up the table. We play a high line so a big experienced. 32 year old CB is not the answer. If we can pick up an experienced, mobile 22-24 year old CB from this division...

    Ben Sheaf

    Sheaf is looking trim, and in good shape from the pre season videos I've seen. Is a new contract still a possibility? Grimes, Rudoni and a fully firing Ben Sheaf for 25/26. Don't think they'd be any better midfields in the division. You'd think playing for Frank Lampard would be hard to...

    Blog CCFC Analysis - Ellis Simms - The Enigma

    Always liked Simms as a player, but if we're not going to play to his strengths then there's no point in him staying on. He's not a target man, or link player. He's a CF that needs the ball played ahead of him, and is probably more effective with a partner. BTA and Simms were doing a good job...

    Wright

    They played together up front against Luton last season, and were both unplayable.

    Pre Season commences

    Yeah I caught that too. Didn't look as happy as the rest. Think that Luton match was the end for him.

    Love both.

    Transfer Rumour 25/26 Summer Transfer Window

    He's been quality since he got back into the team. No coincidence that our run saw Thomas & Kitching as the CBs. He's no slower than Harry McGuire, and he's got that nastiness we don't possess anywhere else in the team.

    Josh Sargent

    Any chance? 10m offer? No-one would of ever expected we'd get Grimes in January. Apart from his slightly suspect injury record, he's the best CF I've seen against us over 2 years.

    Item 25/26 Coventry Kit

    Would love a brown kit. Anything beats that White away kit last season. We really seemed to be getting innovative a few years back with the Two Tone shirt, and that bold Home kit for the first season back in the Championship. Since then it's been, run of the mill, and boring. And, please no...

    Matchday Rewind Coventry City 2 - 1 Ipswich Town | Sun, 09 Aug, 2009

    2 brilliant goals from Morrison, but we played some pretty ugly, direct stuff in those Coleman days. Stadium half full. That period in the Championship was a dark time. It was clear Coleman wasn't a good manager, and we had splashed a lot of cash the season before without any improvement. He...

    Favourite XI since relegation from PL

    Stern John was a great finisher. When we played him with a partner (Adebola) with McSheffrey wide left, that was probably the best forward line we had in that first 13 years in the Championship before going down to League 1

    think that was put to bed when they saw him at CB. JWE definitely, which was one of MR's more bizarre decisions

    Lampard - Next England Manager

    All our success came that way.. Sir Alf, Robson and Venables. Struggle to put Southgate there to be honest

    Just hold on brother. I've got another about Luis Binks coming up next!

    Ok maybe LCM.. I mean this in emergency situations. He'd do a better job than Bidwell there!

    Favourite XI since relegation from PL

    I just hope no-one lists Stephen Hughes, even on the bench.

    Favourite XI since relegation from PL

    Ah David Thomposon! Had Strachan got a tune out of him the season before, we would of comfortably stayed up. You can imagine we would of had quite a front line for the next season, with Bellamy (reborn at Cov) & John Hartson.

    Seems to be the unsung hero of Lampard’s push to the play offs. Always liked him as a player. Best first touch of any Cov player I remember watching, and I like the way he battled to get his shirt back last season, and some of his performances in that run-in were outstanding. The link up play...
