A game which could kick-start Coventry's season
The phrase "taking positives from a defeat" often annoys fans, players and managers but, in this case, Coventry City surely have to look on the bright side as they reflect on a very promising performance at Etihad Stadium on Saturday. It is no consolation for losing the first three league games of a season without scoring for the first time in their history, but they pushed an excellent Manchester City side all the way. Afterwards, Coventry centre-back Bobby Thomas said it was a game, despite the result, which could kick-start their season.
