Lewis Cox's West Brom player ratings: Three manage 7s in defeat but one clear low

Conceded three goals so can't be overly happy but made some very decent saves. Third goal near him but through crowd of bodies.

Tough 6

GEORGE CAMPBELL

Slightly surprisingly straight back in side at right-back after injury and fared well against tricky Mason-Clark. Deserves credit for pretty solid display.

Solid 7

NAT PHILLIPS

Like many colleagues had decent start to the game with clearances but as Albion's big defensive unit did nothing to help clear crosses for City's goals.

Ineffective 5

CHRIS MEPHAM

Back in the side after injury and did OK in the early moments but another unable to repel waves of Coventry attacks.

Unable 5

CHARLIE TAYLOR

Favoured over Styles at left-back but task was a tough one against jinking Sakamoto. Crosses came from his side. Not enough.

Slack 5

JAYSON MOLUMBY

One to forget for the midfielder who must take responsibility for shocking two yellow cards that led to his side capitulating. Totally careless and costly.

Needless 3

ALEX MOWATT

Started the game well and looked to have his side on the move but departed on the hour after Coventry's third.

Faded 6

MIKEY JOHNSTON

A really effective first-half display with two fine assists from the right flank for the winger - which begs the question why he came off at half-time?

Strange 7

ISAAC PRICE

Involved in the build-up to the first goal and his pressing seldom waned when things got tough. Kept going. Maybe could have shot late on.

Kept going 6

KARLAN GRANT

Decent display out on the left flank. A couple of really good first-half runs and another that gave their all physically.

Worked 6

AUNE HEGGEBO

Brilliant first-half double with two excellent striker finishes shows his capability, will be annoyed they led to nothing. Came off after City's third.

Poacher 7
