The Premier League's Key Match Incidents panel has ruled both big decisions in Coventry's 1-0 win at Nottingham Forest correct, as reported by Andy Turner for CoventryLive. The panel supported the VAR intervention to disallow Igor Jesus' late goal 4-1, saying the attacker carelessly stepped on the heel of Caleb Yirenkyi and that it was impactful in the lead up to the goal, and ruled 5-0 that the referee's call of no penalty for a challenge by Frank Onyeka in the 85th minute was correct, the contact being below the threshold for a penalty. Across match round five the panel judged 88% of on-field referee decisions correct, and 89% across the season to date. Frank Lampard has spoken about man management at Coventry, in comments reported by Andy Turner for CoventryLive, who calls it Lampard's biggest challenge since arriving at the club. Lampard said he does not walk in every day and sing a song to the players, that they are grown ups who understand it, and that he is very big on positivity but that positivity and confidence come with work. He pointed to two of the first five fixtures being away at two of what he called the best teams in Europe and said he would not speak forever about it, that City gave everything at Arsenal, and that against Manchester City they competed and probably should have got a result. He said he is not beating the players up over nerves when many are making their Premier League debuts in their mid-20s, and that being exposed to the level is the best way for them to settle. Play Up, Sky Blues!
