I rate Cody, last year he wasn't 100%, but this is year can show everyone his quality, I believe you give him a chance, he'll score more often than not, Yeovil wasn't a good example I have to admit, but he still got a goal.

McSheffrey has been poor since he resigned, poor down the under AB, did better under Thorn but still way inconsistent, selfish. Also, Fleck hasn't merely played 1 game! He's played in pre season and been amongst our best players - ahead of 'macca'! And yeah, pre season counts for something.

He has also come to Coventry with the label of a kid with a lot potential, more potential than Mcca has ever had! Even if we were stepping stone in his career, he's got more hunger as he knows, if he does well, he'll get a big mo McSheff WAS quality once upon a time, but NOW he is dire! Bar...

In fairness, he said that in 2008, he took over in 2010, 3yrs later, so his opinion may have changed Furthermore, the syle he wanted to play, possession, Wood didn't suit it and I suppose the success of the Keogh-Cranie partnership meant Wood wasn't going to start, especially when he got that...

He was willing to take players on (ish) on Tuesday, cutting in on a few occasions, he made 2-3 good tackles put in a couple of good balls in the area, solid performance imo

Yes, but CC and AB have the final say when all said and done, Thorn scouted Wood, said he's best CB in the Championship, but CC had the final say, and Coleman signed players like Eastwood + Clingan because he liked them. But I'm sure he scouted Hussey, not sure about Bell + Baker. Despite AT...

Thank you. But with 4-4-2, it's hard to break out of the bank of 4 without being caught out of position, e.g. Fleck is a player who needs freedom to create - SIDE NOTE: so many posters bang on about creativity, well, 4-4-2 doesn't provide that, it is a solid formation perfect for direct...

Fleck in 37m, done more McSheff in 53! McSheffrey is too hit and miss, whilst he does chip in with some quality goals here and there but the negatives out weigh the positives imo. Over rated, overpaid (for Cov)

In Cody's defence, he's a different type of striker, Cody is a striker, where, if you give him a chance, he will score more often than not, and last night he had 1 half chance. Elliott is more mobile, more willing to take the ball on and dribble. I think them 2 compliment each other well and...

It was only a twisted knee and he was going to play last night but he failed a fitness test, he'll be fit for Saturday.

As a Astute pointed out, bar this close season he's only signed 3, 2 GKs. Also, this is why people think we should give him 10 games to judge him as this is now HIS team!

Might be there for a day trip :) Alternatively, he might be there for the nightclubs ;)

Unfortunately, despite improving in the 2nd half, he was still poor, gave the ball away too cheaply, nearly gave a goal away in the first half, at fault for the goal, looked for the long ball as opposed to keeping it on the deck. In fact he was our worst player yesterday - in a team with Hussey...

No Keogh!? :confused: Fleck ahead of McSheff anyday of the week! :guitar2:

2 banks of 4 is brilliant for defending, not attacking, but as I've noticed when I've watched Everton (I went a couple of times with my Everton ST friend when Cov were away) they don't really keep the 2 banks as they attack as Fellaini got forward with Cahill + Jelavic whilst Gibson stayed back...

Fair enough if it isn't for when everyone is fit, that would be a joke. But I personally wouldn't play 4-4-2, that's my opinion. He's a #10 player (not because of his squad number), behind the striker(s), he wouldn't suit a 4-4-2 and considering he has looked a class above everyone else, we...

No, 4-4-1-1 is 4-4-1-1, not 4-4-2. 4-4-1-1, doesn't have two strikers and last time I checked, Fellaini is a midfielder, 4-4-1-1, is closer to 4-2-3-1 than 4-4-2...

No I'm not, I still highly rate; Turner, Gunna, King, Juke, Dann, Fox, Westwood, Keogh, Cork, Norwood (just saying we have signed a potentially better player), Bigi, Ward, Best (although disinterested near the end). You're referring to players that have left us this summer that I have rightly...

Touche, I wasn't fully aware that Norwood was offered a contract, looks like a draw for Barton v Norwood, for now... :claping hands:

4-4-1-1 actually, with Fellaini behind Jelavic and Man U started with a 4-2-3-1 formation, no 4-4-2s here... :whistle:
