Coventry City fans are divided, but Mark Robins should not drop the 31-year-old…

Ben Wilson may have won the Championship Golden Glove last season, but there is a reasonable case for him to be rested in the near future.

The Sky Blues were incredibly unfortunate to not make it back to the Premier League for the first time in 2022 years when they were defeated in a play-off final penalty shootout by Luton, and then they inevitably lost their two star players in Gustavo Hamer and Viktor Gyokeres for big fees.

Whilst Mark Robins was given a warchest to spend to upgrade his side in multiple positions, it hasn’t quite clicked for them so far, as after 14 matches in the second tier season, Cov sit in 20th position in the table – albeit they are six full points clear of the drop zone at this current moment.

Despite big-money arrivals like Haji Wright, Ellis Simms and Liam Kitching, things are yet to fall into place and Robins needs results to come soon before City are in an actual relegation battle.

One place that Coventry should have theoretically had stability though was in-between the sticks, with Ben Wilson continuing as Robins’ starting goalkeeper after winning the Championship’s Golden Glove last season.

However, even the 31-year-old has been struggling in the current campaign, perhaps because of the differing options ahead of him in the three-man defence.

Should Ben Wilson be dropped by Mark Robins?

In the second half of last season, Kyle McFadzean was formidable with Luke McNally and Callum Doyle either side of him, but both of those young loanees went elsewhere in the Championship and now, Robins has the likes of Bobby Thomas, Liam Kitching, Luis Binks and Joel Latibeaudiere to choose from
