    Think Coventry fans are probably thinking watching their team is like watching Brazil, Alan Brazil on his fifth bottle of red.

    Coventry were poor, but we did not let them play. A great half from the R’s!

    My boy was having a piss for the first goal and getting a glass of water for the second and he went to bed just before the first of the come-back goals against Millwall.
    I am going to make him take the dog for a long walk in a few minutes time :)
    Good half from us, but how poor is Coventry?
    If Wallace was a race horse his change of form would be extremely suspect.

    Cov have a lot of injuries. It shows but they can only get better 2nd half, and our quick passing and high press slowed a bit after 30 minutes. Let's finish it Rangers.

    It seems like MW has worked on something new over the international break, with ultra quick one or two touch passing. And this is the perfect game to get some good practice on it, as Coventry can't cope at all.

    I always like to be critical, so...

    Cov. are all over the place and are often handing us possession. However, we aren't THAT sharp and crisp. I've actually seen us much crisper in our passing and with the team being on the same page. So, I think this is a strange combination of us having a new tactic that has shocked our opposition, along with us being not as tidy and sharp as we have been in the past. If we'd been as switched on as we were in some of our better games this season, we probably would have had a couple more goals already.

    It's almost as if the pace we're playing at is even too fast for ourselves! Considering how this style of play was worked on only over the last couple of weeks, I'd say we're doing really well with it for a first run out. But if we can get used to it and get it down, this could be a really effective new direction for us. As I said, today's game is the perfect one for us to play it.

    Willock is not his usual self today, regardless of the goal. Not as explosive. I think the setup hasn't suited him today, with Chair being the creative midfielder and Willock waiting to receive key passes. After the initial shock, Coventry are trying to defend in numbers, crowding out the area around the D. Willock prefers a bit more space, which would come from a more back and forth game.

    Also, we are mostly playing down the left, making good use of Wallace, which is also why Willock isn't getting on the ball as much.

    I would actually slow the pace slightly in this next half, dominate possession and let Coventry come out of shape and get tired. That should be doable as Coventry will try and commit a bit more when they have possession.

    Chances keep coming!

    Johansen with a gorgeous pass to find Chair, who's denied once more by Marosi.

    QPR 2-0 Coventry

    The pattern from the first half continues, with QPR well on top.

    Sky Blues keeper Marko Marosi has just denied Ilias Chair from a one-on-one.

    Coventry are just three points above the relegation zone as things stand.

    Great ball through their defence by Johansen leaves Chair with only their Keeper to beat bang in front. Keeper saves.

    Coventry have a nice looking away kit (he said rather effeminately)...
