    May Contain Nuts got a reaction from Caerphilly Ram in Matchday Thread - Derby County vs Plymouth Argyle (03/09 15:00)   
    Think the idea that a player being dropped from the starting XI and taking it badly is pretty outdated tbh, like they're all mardy little children who can't handle the idea that it's a team game and they may not always start.
    Being dropped from the squad or constantly being played out of position when you do get a chance and then your lack of performance being blamed on you, yes, but used correctly as part of the squad, subbed on in your correct position, fresh and full of vigour and confidence, totally different ball game.

    As Rosenior would tell you, it's not about picking the best starting 11 it's about picking the best 16/18 and understanding how each player fits the overall plan to win the game.
    Sibley may be gutted not to start, but McGoldrick may offer something in this game against this opposition that Sibley wouldn't. Alternatively Sibley buys into the overall plan and for the game and actually isn't gutted at all, and  having gained some form and confidence from his recent performances will be subbed on against a tiring defence, full of confidence and drive should the game be calling out for that.
    If you think about it from the opposing side's view, an in form Sibley & Dobbin coming on for the last half hour is not something they'll relish, nor is having to deal with McGoldrick's skill and NML's pace all game.

    Charlie Palmer saying Vocal Point instead of Focal Point every f****** time is even more annoying.
    Like he isn't from a footballing background and has never heard anyone else talk about it before.

    The only RB who may have been a potential was Stephen Kelly. He’s gone to West Brom and even then it was a long shot.
    Everyone keeps saying let’s put Knight up the pitch but no one ever says who that would be at the expense of?
    I actually don’t think his goal/assist return is quite there for being up the pitch. I’m perfectly happy with him at RB for us.
