Mifsud Ranking Up

Last updated : 13 December 2007 By Actim

Coventry City strikers Leon Best and Michael Mifsud enjoyed a profitable week despite seeing Saturday's clash with Sheffield Wednesday abandoned, with Michael Mifsud breaking into the Top 50 of The Actim Index, the official player ratings system of the Coca-Cola Championship.

It was Best's highest score of the campaign so far, increasing his total to 75 points this season - Mifsud currently 46th overall is Coventry's highest placed player.

The Sky Blues were worthy 4-2 winners at high-flying West Brom last week, Mifsud (46 points) and Best (54) helping themselves to a brace apiece in the game at The Hawthorns.

Mifsud (235 points overall) is joined in the Actim Index top 100 by team-mate, Republic of Ireland midfielder Michael Doyle (204 pts) in 87th position.
