Striker Dilemma For Boothroyd
Last updated : 18 October 2010 By Covsupport News Service/RD
Coventry City boss Aidy Boothroyd faces a 'lovely dilemma' for Tuesday's home clash with high flying Cardiff City.
Marlon King is finally fit again, having recovered from a thigh injury and could feature in attack or Boothroyd could stick with the Platt and Jutkiewicz partnership which claimed the first win at Portman Road in sixteen years on Saturday.
Even without strikers Freddy Eastwood and Danny Ward, Boothroyd has a choice of strikers available and can chose from Platt, King, Jutkiewicz and McSheffrey.
"It's a nice problem to have," admitted Bothroyd to the CT. "Marlon should be back in contention on Tuesday but Lukas and Clive were immense up front against Ipswich. You need your front men doing that when you've got these Saturday, Tuesday, Saturday sequences; it's crucial that everybody is ready to play a part."
Coventry go into Tuesday's game against Cardiff looking to add to the 18 points and to reduce the deficit on Cardiff's 23 points.
Cardiff are likely to be fielding two former Coventry City players on Tuesday, Jay Bothroyd and Craig Bellamy.
