Coventry City manager Aidy Boothroyd has described not being able play his captain Lee Carsley as a big loss.
The midfielder has been out after having hernia and Achillies Tendon operations and the City boss told the CT: "Lee has been a big miss for me.
"He's me on the pitch - he settles people down and tells them what to do. He's the sort of player who when everything is going mad he gets his calm head on and sees the game out and generally speaking when he's in the side we pick up a lot more points than when he isn't.
"But his injuries have meant that Aron Gunnarsson has moved inside and apart from Bristol City - which I think was his worst game this season, he's been terrific playing out of his skin.
"Sammy Clingan is back in the side and although he was a bit rusty against Bristol, which you'd expect after that long out of the side, he was right back on it against Doncaster.
"He's shown this season that he's not just the Fancy Dan player who stands in the middle of the pitch and sprays the ball around. He's proved he can be athletic, he can get to the second ball and in my opinion, he's a better all-round player."
