Hussey In Demand

Last updated : 19 February 2011 By Covsupport News Service

Coventry City's defender Chris Hussey is a wanted man. The defender has had the most interest out of all the City players from other manager's looking for a loan player.

Speaking to the CT, City boss Aidy Boothroyd said:"I've had more coaches and managers phone me up and ask about Chris Hussey than any other player because he has obviously done very well at non-league level.

"He is fighting fit again. He's had a couple of weeks training under his belt and he needed a game so we will have had a practice match between ourselves.

"He's got undoubted quality but not the experience that we would all want, but having said that, we have gone with a lot of inexperience all season so it doesn't make a lot of difference.

"He should really go out on loan and play matches but needs must at the moment and I think he has earned the right to be in and around the squad.

"I like having him around and we will see where we can go with him. He certainly pushes Stephen O'Halloran and it is nice to see that little bit of competition to keep him on his toes.

"He can push Carl Baker and Gary McSheffrey as well because he can play in two positions.

"If you think about pre-season, he was one of our best players as a left back and a left midfield player."
