COVENTRY City boss Chris Coleman said he was elated with a performance against Sheffield United that handed the Sky Blues their first win in five games.

Their 3-2 victory over the Blades, which saw them climb to ninth in the Championship table, done away with the undefeated record of Kevin Blackwell's side thanks to strikes from Leon Best, Clinton Morrison and Martin Cranie.

And Coleman said wins would not come any harder.

"Games won't get much tougher or teams won;t play much better than Sheffield United did tonight but all the lads stuck to their own job and I thought they were tremendous if I do say so myself," he said.

"We started really well much like we did on Saturday but I told the lads to leave it all out on the pitch and not worry if they had nothing left with 20 minutes to go because we could always change it.

"I never thought the game was over at 3-1 because there is always another corner or another free-kick but the lads showed good mental toughness and I thought every department was fantastic.

"We were defintely worthy of the three points."
