'Guts, style and fight' - no need to panic yet

[Getty Images] Coventry City are yet to get off the mark in this 2026-27 Premier League campaign, sitting bottom of the table with no points from the opening three games. But following Saturday's narrow 1-0 defeat at eight-time champions Manchester City , many supporters believe this is where the season truly starts. BBC CWR fancaster Danny Finlay said Frank Lampard's side showed "guts, style and fight" at the Etihad which has convinced him they have enough to compete in the top-flight this season. "I do get why people are panicking because we are three games in and haven't scored a goal, but they need a run of games," Danny said. "In the last few weeks of the window we brought in nine players and they don't all come in ready to go. "They are all at different stages so people have to understand that. "The performance on Saturday against Manchester City proved that we can compete at this level. I worried about that after the Hull City defeat, but they showed guts, style and fight against City which to me shows points are coming." Fellow fancaster Matt Cattell agreed that "it's early days" and too early to panic and lose faith. "We've had the most difficult start out of the three newly-promoted clubs," said Matt. " Arsenal and Manchester City away are two of the most difficult games of the season. "The Hull City game was a smash and grab. They have spent the majority of their first three games in their own box. They are nullifying and killing games, but picking up points." Danny added: "As for Ipswich , I'm not worried about them. I'm just worried about us and concentrating on what we need to do." Listen to the Sky Blues Fancast on BBC Sounds
