Lampard on learning lessons, Pinnock and Hull City

Coventry City manager Frank Lampard addressed the media ahead of their upcoming Premier League match against Hull City. There are no new injury concerns going into the match, as Jack Rudoni and Ephron Mason-Clarke are both back in the squad following a Carabao Cup win over Plymouth.

Lampard praised the arrival of new signing Ethan Pinnock from Brentford, stating that the experienced Premier League player strengthens the Coventry squad. He acknowledged lessons learned from their opening defeat by Arsenal, emphasizing that the team must move forward and improve.

Excited to see what his side can achieve against Hull City, Lampard expects his team to play with the same energy and intensity they showed last season at home. He does not underestimate Hull City, who recently defeated Manchester United, and believes the match will be a significant challenge. He reiterated that he won't talk down Hull City despite their positive recent form.

Lampard also mentioned that goalkeeper Oliver Dovin might be loaned out to gain regular playing time, given his limited minutes over the past season. He expressed excitement about facing Aston Villa in the third round of the Carabao Cup, describing it as an exciting draw and a derby-type atmosphere that will make for an electric night.
