the little bits add up... That's all I'll say about it.
"I thought VAR would cancel it." Coventry's Frank Lampard said Omar Marmoush's elbow was high and hit Milan van Ewijk on the Spurs goal. He cited a corner, a foul on Brandon Thomas-Asante and a late advantage not played: "the little bits add up... That's all I'll say about it."
It gives me a lot to think about for what the next starting team is or when I'm making subs in the future
Josh Eccles is still not back on Coventry's training pitch after an ankle problem picked up returning from a calf injury. Frank Lampard hopes he will progress "in the next 2 or 3 weeks", and Luke Woolfenden is "maybe a little bit longer than that, we're thinking now."
Kaine Kesler-Hayden is pushing Milan van Ewijk for Coventry's right-back spot. "Kaine's training with us, so he's available," Frank Lampard said ahead of the Premier League game at Spurs, adding that he has come back sharp and is a live challenger for the place.
Sidiki Cherif's goal on his full league debut against Newcastle has opened up the fight for Coventry's striker spot. Frank Lampard says Cherif and Ellis Simms are pushing each other before the Premier League trip to Spurs: "It's good competition in a critical area of the pitch."
Tatsuhiro Sakamoto, short of minutes this season, impressed Frank Lampard with 30-plus minutes off the Coventry bench against Newcastle. "It gives me a lot to think about for what the next starting team is or when I'm making subs in the future," Lampard said ahead of Spurs.
