So What's Next?

With the sale of Gary McSheffrey in a move to fellow Championship members Birmingham City for £4m being completed, Micky Adams has to work fast in order to get the team back on track ahead of Friday's local derby with Leicester City.
City have not scored in their two away games at Southampton and then Cardiff City on Saturday and selling two strikers at a time when all of your possible replacements are injured (Tabb,Virgo, Lourougnon and El Idrissi, will leave Adams with the only option of bringing in a midfielder to take McSheffrey's place and rejigging the formation for a match that City dare not lose.
With only fifteen days left before the transfer window closes, Adams will have to work fast. In order to placate the long suffering City support and show that Operation Premiership is a cause we should support rather than a way for Geoffrey Robinson to claw back some of the cash he has invested,a big name will have to be brought in.
Whilst we have two keepers in Konstantopoulos and Fulop who have both said this week that they want to play for Coventry City, finding a striker with a proven track record of scoring at the highest level and someone who can more or less guarantee the fifteen to twenty goals a season that City demand from a striker is a tough task.
