Coventry City have 3 ex players at the World Cup right now.
Kasper Schmeichel (Denmark)
Aron Gunnarsson (Iceland)
Jordan Henderson (England)
Can anyone make up a decent 11 of ex Coventry Players who have played in the World Cup Finals?
You can use the 3 above as a starting point.

George Raynor would have to be the manager, mind.

Wow that's a weird one - 2 appearances & 1 goal for us I think but although he was an International I don't think he featured in the World Cup.
(I might be wrong)

We also have this ex-Cov legend currently at the world cup, although now in a coaching role rather than playing

He looked like he had his face upside down, looked a right prick.

Anyone else remember Alexi Lalas being linked with us in 94? Or am I making that up?

He was linked with us all summer...like he’d practically signed for us.
Did we get Cobi instead?

I didn’t think he was any good anyway. I remember being worried about him playing for us.
