I like Coventry and think he is a decent player at what he does. I’m sure he will have a good career. He is being scapegoated imo for other shortcomings in our midfield. Which by the way would look so much better with Dobson still in it unfortunately whatever went on at the club has cost us without doubt and people saying the replacements are a step up are putting a new meaning to SPIN 😂
I completely disagree that the midfield would look that much better with Dobson in it honestly. He himself would look very good, in fact he'd probably BE very good to be fair but he'd struggle to make much impact with the likes of Docherty and Campbell as his supporting act. He'd be forced back pretty much entirely into a firefighting/defensive role by default, which he'd excel at... but we still wouldn't be creating much.
If we had Taylor/Coventry/Dobson in place of Coventry/Docherty/Campbell we'd probably be better off but that ship had sailed before Jones even came in.

Most people have said he’s our best midfielder - that doesn’t suggest “scapegoating” .

Hope he gets on to win a full cap this time, a great honour for him, his family and his club.
