Coventry fan here RE Elliot Ward.

Very good signing for you boys, in his 4 years here he has been a good performer for us until Coleman took over. Coleman does not like Centre halves who like to play the ball out from the back he likes his big strong cloggers at the back. Are Norwich a passing side ? If so he will fit into your system very well as his comfortability on the ball is one of his main strengths. Elliot is definatley a top class centre back in this division and on his day he is one of the best. He does has a few weight/fitness issues but it's nothing a good pre season can't sort out. He definately has the potential to play in the premier league in my opinion.

Strengths
Very good on the ball.
Clean tackler of the ball
Very good in the air
Good communicator, leads the defense well - potential to be a captain in the future.

Weaknesses
Not the quickest
Can on the occassion overplay
Makes a couple of bad mistakes a season

On the whole a VERY good signing for you.
