Murphy 7 - It would have been higher but there were a couple of things he should have done better with, one of them being the goal.
Christie 7 - Looked solid defensively, got down the line well but a couple of poor crosses.
Keogh 8 - Looked solid, he made a couple of mistakes but he was putting them right straight away.
Cranie 8 - As Keogh
Herman 7 - Looked completely unfit first fifteen minutes, but then his experience told and he was organising everything, could have done better for the goal.
Clingan 7 - Gave the ball away a few times early but seemed to look so much more composed in the second half
Thomas 7 - Solid but unspectacular
Deegan 6 - Did his normal thing of getting into the oppositions faces, could have done more on the ball.
Mcsheffrey 8 - The best I have seen him play for a long time, his movement was good and always looked dangerous when he had the ball, took his goal well.
Platt 9 - He was an absolute beast in the air, the Middlesboro defenders must have hated playing against him, held the ball up well, and was a good partner for Nimely.
Nimely 9 - What a difference it makes having a player with pace and skill, he made their defence look completely foolish a few times, the dummy pass to send Christie through was something I haven't seen from a Coventry player in years.
Bell 7 - some superb passing from him, and he got forward well.
Eastwood n/a - not really on long enough to warrant a mark.
Thorn 9 - Got his tactics spot on, by changing the shape slightly Middlesboro seemed to struggle with us when we going forward, great decision bringing Bell on for Deegan.
