ThePrisoner Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 I don't think last night benefitted because we didn't play Lawrence. I think it was having Jagielka in the back line and being able to play Baldock in place of CKR. Start the same lineup Saturday for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomsdubs Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 I imagine we'll try and rotate the CBs due to age, can't see Jagielka playing out a full season at his age. Ramarena 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeedsRam1999 Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 (edited) Starting Baldock (a more mobile striker willing to run the channels) earned us the right to play in the pockets in front of the defence. When the striker wants to come back towards our goal as well as all the attacking midfielders, it means there defence can squeeze up. Dropping Lawrence wasn’t there reason we played well in their half, it was the fact we had options to go long and short. You always have to earn the right to play football with graft and unselfish running of the channels.

atherstoneram Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 I never thought i would say this but i feel sorry for Rooney, i just wonder how many false promises he has been given as to strengthening the squad, he has quoted Several times saying that things are progressing and he should be able to bring in players in the next few days etc. Well here he is,the final day of the transfer window and he is having to sit on his hands seeing players he wanted signing for other clubs. Belief and enthusiasm only lasts so long before you think what's the point. cosmic, Abu Derby, NottsRam77 and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CornwallRam Posted August 31, 2021 Share Posted August 31, 2021 If Wayne likes Derby County so much, why doesn't he just buy the club. After all, I bet he's got more cash than the fake Sheikh and Erik Alonso combined.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because we've sucked him in now. It's a spiral. Next thing he knows he'll posting on DCFCfans at 2.30AM before getting up a 8AM to check if anything interesting is happening on the forum. Knowing that he's Wayne Rooney, so if the forum's boring, he can do something about it. RoyMac5 and Will Hughes Hair 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
