The inconsistency is so frustrating with this team where in some games it’s higher tempo and encouraging, then the next reverts to type.

The amount of times we have the ball and just go backwards is so boring to watch

Had a good first half. Struggled when we went 4ATB.

Burnley’s defence is the best in division for a reason. In fact, their defensive record is the best ever in the Championship at this stage of the season.

Imo, teams easily play through our midfield and I don’t think either Eccles or Sheaf are bad midfielders defensively. Which therefore, suggests something fundamentally defective with our tactical instructions/approach.

Their first goal we gave the ball away really cheaply (I think it was Binks) and then just seemed so vulnerable to a change of pace from Burnley. There seems to be a real lack of organisation as to who does what when the ball is turned over.

It was a pretty bizarre line up and game plan from Carr in the first half. Why he thought sitting 10 behind the ball against a low scoring Burnley team was a good plan I'm not sure.

This describes about 90% of our goals conceded this season.

In the games against us Leeds were far better than Burnley. I’m not sure how you can argue differently. How they played against each other without us is irrelevant.

You talk about Burnley’s defensive strength but tonight I didn’t see them even remotely tested. And the one dimensional way we try to attack the goal is a threat to nobody.

Sheff Utd had a very easy time with 10 men

Your argument makes no sense. It would make sense if the league was decided purely based on how teams do against us?

Every goal has about three people making basic errors it seems. Screams lack of defensive organisation.

I've seen it with Robins a few times which makes me believe teams struggle to change their mindset during matches .

If teams set up negatively they often struggle when required to go up the gears

100% - maybe King was fundamentally right about Robins being exposed without an elite coach such as AV aside him.

If you’re feeling shit and want to feel a little bit better before you go to sleep, console yourself that you’re not me. I’m still on the £500 premier league package and so far this season have only been able to watch 2 games live. My cost per game so far this season is £250 it can always be worse

Maybe I’m missing the point slightly, but I thought that was one of our strengths under robins. We usually started poor and grew into games, which is why we saw so many last minute equalisers and winners under him

The league? What the fuck are you on about?

When we, Coventry City Football Club, the team we discuss on Sky Blues Talk, played these teams Leeds were far better than Burnley. So when we, Coventry City fans discussing Coventry city on Sky Blues Talk, are discussing whether Coventry City’s performance was better against Burnley or Leeds what matters is the games Coventry City played against these teams, not how they played against any other team in the league.

I think I have some crayons about if that would help.

It’s my turn to make you feel better. I lumped £550 on the PL package this season…

My cost per game is slightly lower than yours though! Keep faith me old Mucca!

I misread, and thought you were saying Leeds were 10x better than Burnley in general.

no need to be such a cockwomble, especially after the bollocks you’ve talked on here recently

I mean sure we can set up to win matches and start slow and grow into them.

But I'm more talking specifically about the games where you can see the team are sitting in they always struggle to find a way to get up the gears after a team has got ontop
