Coventry City Carabao Cup away match day thread

[GrahamC]

No Klose or Dasilva, presumably the 2 Nige said were unwell.

Amazed Weimann starts again.

[Davefevs]

Pegs n holes!
 

c’mon you reds!!!

[Ivorguy]

It would be great to see the three forwards score with abandon, but even greater to see defence keep a clean sheet.

 

COYR

[Davefevs]

[Curr Avon]

Palmer starts for the Sky Blues

 

[petehinton]

433? Can’t work it out. Or sticking to 352?

[Numero Uno]

He’s right to play the back three again (you can argue Klose for Vyner) because they need to try and get themselves into form. My tweak would be Naismith….if he’s considered the best crosser of the ball in the club then surely he needs to swap with Atkinson firstly because you need the better defender down the middle anyway and also when we do carry it out in wide areas we can deliver some quality?

He's going to score isn't he?

[bcfc01]

Assume Weimann will play a bit deeper.

King and Massengo an interesting pairing..

3-4-1-2

Bentley

Vyner Naismith Atkinson

Wilson King Massengo Pring

Coventry 11/8 seems big to me!

If so, does it really matter?

We moved on a player on telephone numbers who didn’t fit our system & wasn’t contributing anything.

Mark Sykes (on probably a quarter of the wages) has already started more league games in 22/23 than he did for us in 21/22.

[Finley_Smith10]

The faster Vyner is out the team the better. Amazed the amount he’s started this season 

[Silvio Dante]

In the latest example of “I have an agenda”, here’s Ian Gay:

Ignoring the fact that he can’t spell Weimann correctly after all this time, he’s pointing to the third choice keeper, a youth player with c10 appearances and a man who’s retired as being injured. Without considering the others in part may be rested.

If we include Baker in the injury list we just as well as include Billy sodding Wedlock.

The. Man. Is. A. ****.

No indication Klose or Williams are injured to my knowledge. The rest all are.

Bakers retired to all intents and purposes. Benarous is a player with sub 20 games. Bajic is a cover keeper. If it was Bentley, Scott and Atkinson injured he’d have a point over injuries. He doesn’t. Ever.

Our list is always frustratingly long. Though I couldn’t tell you what an average length injury list looks like at other clubs, maybe this is typical.

Absolute negative cock.

Possible one or two are ill as Nige made reference to yesterday.

Yep, he’s a cock.

NP said a while ago Williams wouldn’t play midweek in games like this, so he isn’t “injured”, he’s being kept back for Wigan.

Realistically we have 3 senior players unavailable, Kalas, James & Semenyo.

Klose I guess is unwell, won’t be shocked to see him back in the 18 on Saturday.

And according to Nigel he will have to see if he can play through pain. Which presumably means his op was not a success.

Ian Gay takes every opportunity to slag off everything City, particularly Nige. His negativity lacks any context.

He’s sooooo  ******* depressing………..…… and claims to be a City fan………..
