3 League Games 0 Goals (13 Viewers)

[stevefloyd]

Those on here who were constantly having a go at Jacob Murphy should now be having a good look at themselves, frustrating player yes but what was it ? 10 goals, 10 assists ! and in his first full season yet he took merciless abuse from some on here.

Just think how good he could have been if people had supported him instead of berating him !!!

[Yorkshire SB]

Rochdale 5 goals scored
Sheffield Utd 5 goal scored
Shrewsbury 5 goals scored
Wimbledon 7 goals scored

all these clubs have scored quite a few goals in 3 games and are at the foot of the table, there needs to be a balance
of defence to attacking else we can go a blow our budgets on a goal scorer like those above and come january we
probably would need to do something drastic. TM is right strikers dont grow on trees and the ones we need are probably on loans
from Premiership Clubs and he is having to wait until the Big clubs sort their squads out. It dire to watch i know but hopefully
we can protect our position until the End of August (if we have not found one then we should start to panic)

They're being sorted out, premier league players are going out on loan, not suggesting we'd have got them but Abraham at Bristol, Brown at Rotherham

I like Tudgay, comes across as a decent fella but he looked finished to me last night.

Must be fitness issue, hasn't got aerobic capacity to last whole game, now where did I hear that recently.

Where have you got these numbers from? Shrewsbury haven't scored in the league this season, Wimbledon have - 3 not 7, Sheff Utd have 1 goal not 5 and Rochdale have 3 not 5

I think he's got the 'F' column confused with the 'A' column...

 

[Sky Blue Kid]

Perhaps we could pick Ken Satchwell for the Bradford game decent centre forward who could ghost into goal scoring positions...he died about 6 months ago !

The relevance is?.......

How many Coventry supporters can hands on heart name one solitary fixture that we would be odds on to win? I would have thought either Bury or AFC Wimbledon at home was as close as I could get but one has already bitten the dust and I would not put any money on the second either. The tragedy is that the supporters of Swindon, Rochdale and Scunthorpe have one cast iron certainty of 3 points and we all know who the opponents are. I realise the season has just started but will someone please tell our players.

So you are now comparing Edge to Pele?

You said you thought he was much better than any of our current players, was just asking how?

What you on about you nobhead? Where have I compared Pele to Edge?....... I said I never saw Pele play live but know he's the greatest footballer who ever lived. I've seen Edje play quite a few times and I "Rate him"........ Webster was a Scottish International, but he was total Gash!!! Others will disagree with what I've said...So what? It's my opinion, and I'm entitled to it. It doesn't make your opinion better than mine and vice versa.

Edit* Your a WUM. You're always trying to get a reaction out of posters. Looks like you won again with me eh?

I haven't said it does make any opinions better or worse, but your opinion was he was better than any of our current players.

Seen them play much too? Or are we just going off a few minutes of highlights against Newport?

Some say, 3 games and 0 goals is okay. (Jeremy Clarkson voice)

No Nick, I watch the "Sky Blues Wall" and read reports from independent match reports(Where any given) and also look at things like this.......

Coventry goal scorers: No goals scored

Bury goal scorers: No goals scored

Stats

Not very good stats considering we were the home team eh?...(Taken off the Official SBPlayer stats.) but don't let these things influence anything eh?

 

[jimmyhillsfanclub]

The Edge was shit.

The only decent thing about him during his stay was the solitary drunken attempt at a chant based upon "The message" by Grand Master Flash heard behind me at either Bury or Tranmere......it all gets a bit blurry

Were you pissed at all the other games he played in as well?

So whats a goal scored stat got to do with our defenders?

So you are saying the Edge is better, but you haven't actually seen them play to compare it to? I get it.

How does "Better service to the forwards" sound? instead of lumping the ball into touch? I got sick of seeing "Long ball trying to find Tudgay...too long, goal kick to Bury".......and "Bad pass trying to find..... "Misplaced pass down the line throw in to Bury."....."Ball crossed in, over everyones heads, throw in far side to Bury." etc,etc,etc.... And don't try to tell me I'm lying, coz I'm not!
PS. in general, this "Bare bones" team are not good enough.

 

[ccfchoi87]

In my opinion, if you don't go to any games then you shouldn't give your observation on them or the team.

So what's that got to do with Edge?

Cian Harries plays some great passes direct to the forwards feet.

Lying about what? I just don't see how you can backup "edge is better than any of our defenders now" by reading on the wall and not seeing them play.

Forget the goals for stats for a minute... Look at the other stats

42%Possession58%
11Shots19

42% possession...At home?
11 shots to 19 at home?
Shit stats, and most of those figures will be the norm throughout the season too.

Does that apply to the fans who live abroad too? Yes/No?

Yes because they can't comment on players they haven't seen with any authority. At the minute even people who have been to every game (including tony Mowbray) are still trying to figure out which players are good enough.

So you think our defenders at the Club are better than "Edje"?... Back it up big boy!

Yes, Harries has performed well over the first few games. I'd go as far as saying judged on these performances he is better.
Willis has also been quite solid.

I can't comment on Turnbull yet, but I'd put money on him being better. Hence he is being bought rather than trying his best to get trials and keep having his contracts cancelled.

Aim the comment at these fans too then mate. Tell that to the guys in Canada, USA, Australia, Thialand, Norway Denmark etc...Love to see the reply you get from them As for Tony Mowbray, he SHOULD know which players are good enough.

That's not "Backing it up" You're giving your opinion nothing more. Like I said before, My opinion is just as good as yours.

I don't see any of them claiming they know that our whole defence is worse than an average league one player

He isn't even that now is he?

FYI Edje and Malaga were "Free transfers coming in

Try watching the wall and see what they have to say... Might enlighten you pal.

I'd rather watch the game thanks mate

Yes, then they both had the contracts cancelled. 1 then vanished, the other went to Bury for a few games before vanishing.

If that comment is aimed at Edjenguele. He has played at the top 2 Greek "Superleague Clubs" one of which reached the quarter final stage of the Champions League. Hardly "Average L1 football" eh

Who and when was in the quarter final? Did he play?

Joe Cole had done better and he was very much average for us.
