    brady1993 got a reaction from Dethorn in Super subs or starters?   
    In the last two games the combination of movement, pressing and ball retention from Lawrence, Knight and Jozwiak are a major part of why we've firmly taken control over the games at hand. With CKR, Ebosele and Morrison all coming on when the opposition has already been run ragged to battle against tiring player where their physicality (in the first two cases) and having more time  on the ball in Morrison's case can make a more telling contribution.
    They wouldn't have been as effective from the start and if they started we'd have probably not got as firm a foothold on the games in question.

    This felt like the opposite of the West Brom game in that it felt like a game were things just weren't going our way. Outplayed them for most of the game but just couldn't quite get that final ball completely right, lost count of the times a ball flashed across the box narrowly not finding a Derby player. 
    But as I'm sure others have noted it would have been easy at 2-0 to meekly give in and say it wasn't our day so to force a point out of it is truly excellent.

    When isn't he ? 
    I'm quietly come to the belief that I think he might be the best we have coming through. The way he's seamlessly slotted into the midfield with how high is average performance is It's phenomenal at his age.
    Our midfield with him and Bird look so much more fluid than it did earlier in the season and with the 3 in front of we are keeping the ball better and pressing more intelligently.

    It's a good thing to think about isn't it ?
    But I'd wager the best thing to do would be to Bielik between Bird and Tommo and play a 433.

    Best win of the season. 
    Tactically spot on today both the initial line up and then the subs made the needed impact. Pressed with real aggression and used the ball well with purpose. This is the best we've looked so far this season and gives us that glimmer of hope.

    I think he came on at the point where he could contribute the most. Rooney was correct to start Jozwiak based on how he played and he was correct to bring Ebosele for him when he did.

    Football B hell !
    Every game those kids are getting better and stronger, playing together. It’s still a huge mountain but the Rams are marching ! 
    I only had you guys and BBC text …. How did we do ? It sounded like we played football the right way. How was Tommo ? Did Morrison show some class. Is Curtis knackered or bloody but unbowed ?

    If you can dream and not make dreams your master, fill every minute with 60 seconds worth of distance  run. 
    If you can force your heart your nerve and sinew to serve you long after your turn is gone and so hold on when there is nothing in you, except the will which says to you hold on …….. ( more or less ?) 
    I love this team more than any in my all too brief time as a Ram .. They are special. They have guts by the bucket load.

    I don't think it was so much that and more he was just gassed. He'd been leggy for about 10 minutes.
