Because they will make the playoffs
When Frank Lampard took over in November, he did not exclude a push, but admitted that the first goal was to avoid relegation.
Now, 10 wins of the last 12 games have pushed Coventry with firmness among the first six and have that crucial ingredient – Momentum.
Without making radical changes, Lampard seems to have instilled the belief between players and fans.
He benefited from the return of the key players after the layoffs, in particular Haji Wright who marked a hat -trick against Sunderland just before the break. The signature of midfielder Matt Grimes was also the key.
Because they won’t do it
The 2-0 defeat at Derby was reassuring and left any fans to ask himself if the team could maintain a play-off challenge and yet they followed that setback with probably the best performance of the season so far against Sunderland.
After a series of injury problems, they are relatively free from problems, but if the key players are injured again, he could put the team of modest sizes of Lampard to the test.
Lampard has undoubtedly improved the record of his team on the back and yet defensive questions arise. The 3-0 victory over The Wearsiders was the first clean sheet of Coventry in six games and granted two of their previous five games.
