The Sky Blues boss confessed that he was thinking of changing his side’s formation and bringing on a substitute in the first half, such was the disjointed nature of his side’s display.
USA international Wright netted a 40th-minute penalty before striking a composed 72nd-minute winner from the edge of the area to give his side victory, but Robins said: “Watford played well in the second half the other night and carried that on. They have got some really talented individuals with a lot of pace and power who can hurt you. Thankfully they didn’t.
“But I thought we were poor in the first half. We didn’t start well enough. We didn’t have enough of the ball and then they scored out of nothing when we didn’t really compete for the header.”
