Blues' great strength is creating a problem!
Birmingham Mail
|September 30, 2025
BLUES continued their wretched record at the CBS Arena with a 3-0 defeat to Coventry.
Brandon Thomas-Asante, Bright Osayi-Samuel (own goal) and Victor Torp scored for the home side on a day where very little went right for Blues. Marvin Ducksch got injured in the warm-up and Jack Robinson was sent off shortly before halftime.
Blues haven’t scored on their last five visits to the CBS Arena and haven't won a league fixture in Coventry since 2006 to make matters worse, this was their heaviest defeat under manager Chris Davies.
Here are the talking points from Saturday's latest loss on the road.
Paik and Iwata aren't performing to their level
In his pre-match press conference, Davies claimed Paik Seung-ho and Tomoki Iwata hadn't been overpowered by a Championship midfield yet.
The midfield men of Stoke and Leicester might disagree with him on that.
The Sky Blues’ pairing of Matt Grimes and Torp pulled Paik and Iwata all over the place with their passing and positioning.
