Coventry City U23's coach Jason Farndon has said that the Sky Blues need to be more ruthless in front of goal.

City's first team, U18's and U23's all should have recorded victories over the last few days had they put their chances away and Farndon told the club website about the 2-2 draw against Sheffield Wednesday at the Alan Higgs Centre.

 “I thought the philosophy of the club and what we’re trying to do at the minute, you can see it in the first team on Saturday and then today we’re trying really hard to dominate the ball and be creative and for the lads to enjoy the football, but we just wasn’t ruthlessness enough.

“It is the hardest part of the game scoring a goal. It’s easy for us coaches to say score, but obviously we would be concerned if we weren’t creating chances, but again it has just left us frustrated.

“Also we needed to get 90 minutes into a lot of first team players, that’s why they were involved and they got through injury free and got the game time they needed.”

A good number who watched the game were impressed with Reise Allassini who again scored and Farndon said about him:  “He’s a real threat.

“He’s still learning the game and I don’t think people appreciate how big that jump is from where he came from in non-league, not like when Max Biamou jumped from the Conference to League Two.

“Reise has jumped four or five divisions and it would be nice to make that jump really quickly but, in reality, football doesn’t work like that so it’s really good for him to get games like this.”
