Head coach of English Championship side Coventry City Frank Lampard has once again heap praises on Nigeria international midfielder Frank Onyeka shortly before their 2-0 win over Bristol City in the English Championship.
Onyeka who was battling fatigue before the game was introduced with 13 minutes left to play in the bad tempered game, which saw players from both sides receiving their marching orders.
As it has been since his move to the team, they picked up another win which has moved them closer to their dream of gaining automatic promotion to the English Premier League.
The table toppers currently hold a nine points lead over third place Millwall, with top two gaining automatic promotion to the English elite division.
28-year-old Onyeka joined the Sky Blues from Brentford on transfer deadline day in February and has been part of a winning side in all of his appearances so far for the Championship leaders.
“When we recruited him the playing profile was different as we are quite light on Premier League experience,” Lampard told BBC CWR before the game.
“Not many of our players have been exposed to the Premier League, some other Championship teams have lots of exposure to the Premier League.
“So there’s an experience about it, a knowhow in his game but he’s been a big impact on and off the pitch for us. His professionalism is really good and he’s clearly come in and helped our upturn in recent weeks.”
