With the most recent injury casualty, Coventry City is nearly at breaking point in midfield going into a crucial weekend. The precise degree of Victor Torp’s calf problem, which forced him off during halftime of the 1-0 victory over Stoke over the weekend, is still unknown to the public. This outcome came at the end of an incredible week in which the team won seven points from three tough games over the course of seven exhausting days. Ben Sheaf, the Sky Blues’ greatest midfield player, and Jamie Allen, a remarkably dependable and dynamic player, are already sidelined for a further five to six weeks due to hamstring strains and fractured cheekbones, respectively. Mark Robins is now left with just two senior players who are fit: Josh Eccles and Liam Kelly, as well as versatile defender Joel Latibeaudiere, who has been stepping up well in the middle of the field lately as City has been pushed thin.
