Before Frank Lampard's first game as Coventry manager on 30th November, the Sky Blues were 17th in the Championship table on 17 points, just one point ahead of Omer Riza's Cardiff City, who were 21st on 16 points.

After a run of six wins in their last seven Championship games, Coventry are currently sitting 7th in the table on 47 points and are no less than 15 points ahead of the Bluebirds.

Their recent run is all the more remarkable because the only side they've played during that time who are in the division's bottom ten is Swansea City.

Lampard seems to have turned Coventry around in no uncertain terms. Who saw that coming? I certainly didn't.
