Coventry City's ten-game report card: Thomas shines, Rushworth struggles and Mfuni surprises

Over the next few days, I'll be running the rule over Frank Lampard's squad, assessing the players, the summer recruitment and the manager himself after the opening ten games of Coventry's return to the Premier League.

First up, it's the defence – the goalkeepers and defenders who have been tasked with keeping out some of the finest attacking players in world football. It's been a steep learning curve for some, an opportunity to shine for others and, in a few cases, a rather uncomfortable introduction to life in the top flight.
