1 / 2

Frank Onyeka is urging his Coventry City teammates to stay sharp ahead of their Premier League opener at Arsenal on August 21. The Nigerian midfielder, key to their Championship title under Frank Lampard, warns that top teams spare no mercy when opponents slip up. Onyeka named Arsenal, Manchester City, Brighton and Liverpool as sides that dominate possession. He stressed the need to stay compact, track runners and maintain tactical discipline. He singled out playmakers like Martin Ødegaard and Phil Foden, praising their clever movement behind lines. “You have to be focused throughout because you can get punished at any time,” Onyeka said. Coventry begin their top-flight return with five tough fixtures: Arsenal, Hull City, Manchester City, Brighton and Nottingham Forest. Onyeka believes set-pieces and counter-attacks must become key weapons.
