Just Keep Scoring - Robins

Last updated : 10 November 2012 By Covsupport News Service

Coventry City manager Mark Robins has urged David McGoldrick to keep scoring goals.

McGoldrick has been banging them in for the Sky Blues since joining the club on loan from Nottingham Forest in September and Mark Robins told the Coventry Telegraph's Alan Poole: "You want to keep your best players, especially when they are bedded in and scoring for you and that's what David is doing at the moment.

"I was talking to him about work rate but I got a sentence in and said "forget about work-rate just keep sticking the ball in the back of the net". There's no luck about it because he finds positions where he can affect the game. He got his first goal against Crawley because he anticipated where the chance was going to arise and he is capable of doing something special like he did for the second so defenders must find him a nightmare to handle.

"Sometimes as a striker things will drop for you - you are in the right place at the right time - but you have to be on your toes, anticipate what's going to happen. Cody McDonald can do that. Roy O'Donovan can do that although he's not done it for the first team yet - John Fleck can do that and Carl Baker can do that.

"We struggle to talk about David McGoldrick because he's not our player   so we'll see what transpires but he's one component in a team and we shouldn't underestimate the people who are working hard to provide chances for him."
