How did young Dwight play? Anonymous. He did have a half chance 2nd half but you won't be surprised to hear he scuffed the shot.

They could have put Phil Collins in goal today to be fair No gloves required. Yeah but he could feel a shot comin in the air tonight, so unfair advantage.

We won't win anything with this group of players. Whoever comes on as a sub, makes no difference. These players shone in their previous teams, because they were playing in inferior leagues to the Championship. They don't have what's needed for us to progress. There isn't one of the foreign players that stands out. The players who do stand out & can cope, are the players who were already here. Coventry are a poor team, & we looked no better. We had, was it, one shot on goal? Leris looks as though he has his boots tied together whenever the ball goes to him on the ground. He's got no ball control. Generally, the passing is terrible, & do we have anyone in the Club who can take a free kick or corner? The whole team is low quality.

From start to finish, our final ball was utter shite, did we find a Stoke player once?

Hard to disagree with any of this, just a box standard team that i can't see progressing, shame really expected alot more from Burger especially

Fine point if you’re hoping for mid table mediocracy but they are in poor form and were terrible.
Really not good enough if you’re hoping for a play off place.
And we need to very quickly realise that Gayle is done, hoping for him to come good isn’t a viable strategy

Surprised by the reaction of some to that.
It’s the kind of ugly point that bodes well for being around mid table in January, ready to invest in a couple of much-needed players at the top end of the pitch.
I was quite pleased.

Gayle should never be near the team sheet..If he touched the ball 4 times id be amazed...one of the four he scuffed...stealing a living!!!

Hoever didn’t have his best game, but for some reason known only to the coaching team, Leris was moved over to the left, in a swap with Johnson, so the mostly useful partnership down the right didn’t flourish.

My take on it was that a handful of players tried to go one player further and then got in to trouble, losing the ball, instead of making a pass. Plus too many through balls to no one! Johnson needs dropping. Offered nothing today

Campbell and baker both improve this team after the break Baker, oh come off it I think he Will actually get the chance to or Ive it after the break so we shall see he is more of threat than Johns on for me and he will improve our dead ball delivery

If Baker comes in for Johnson, where does that leave Bae? Do we play him as part of a 3? Would he be effective there? Just what do we do in January? Is Brereton Diaz an option to bring in? Or do we look to sign/ buy a striker? Gayle is still contracted to us as is Wesley. We just haven’t found a balance up top and Leris is more of a midfielder than winger. At the moment our best front three would seem to be Vidigal, Mmaee and Campbell, but it’s unproven. We lack spark and creativity so I’m wondering where that is going to come from. Bad has to start to feature sooner rather than later.

During a transfer window I imagine. We just had one, what happened? We're supposed to have one in Maaee (sp). What does he actually do when he gets the ball. I can't see how he is a c.f. He doesn't show any signs of being one. To me he's a big let-down, as it was said that we were waiting for him to re-join the team after injury, to get us some goals. Has he had a shot on goal yet?

Mmaee is no central striker and nor is Vidigal or Campbell. Wesley is but not a starter. I’m not saying we need a big unit, just someone more comfortable playing more centrally. Brereton Diaz on loan anyone? Until we resolve the goal scoring dilemma and the service going into the front players we’ll keep on hugging and puffing.

He did play wide as Gallagher was central but he could do more of a job down the middle than our current crop. He’s certainly not a winger and I think he’s suited to a central role.
