Compared with Marshall who hasn't claimed a cross all season? ?

Wow do you really think Roos is our No1? I know who I would sooner have and our defenders. Marshall has not been error free I know but he’s a solid keeper at this level.

Did you post this from the West Stand...Love a duck, Another that doesn't understand football.

Doesn’t understand football ? So you think he commands his area then? And I don’t sit in the West stand thanks.

There's a very good keeper in there somewhere, Consistancy is the key, For him to reach the potential Roos needs games, I've heavily crtisised him especially the Wembley game, The Fulham game away in midweek was his downfall a couple of seasons back.

But this past 2 years he's been able to improve greatly on his commanding of his 18 yard area, Crosses were his downfall, Now it would appear he's coming to terms on when to catch or know whether to punch.

Marshall also has a mistake in him, But then so have all keepers, I'd stick with Roos for now and see, A full house at PP tho could be his undoing ?‍♀️

Improve greatly on commanding his area? When did this happen? Certainly not Cardiff away a few weeks ago he literally didn’t claim any cross all game.

But I don't want to see him on the wing I want to see us play through midfield with some attacking intent. It says more about the way we are set up than anything, no place for an attacking midfielder in our team! 

And as for him not showing it in training, I am sure the current players aren't being coached to be so negative on the pitch but they keep doing it and aren't being dropped.

Personally I would like us to take the hand brake off and start playing to win. This solid defensive approach is hardly working lately and you can just see the confidence draining out of all the players, not just Louie.

Spot on non of our midfield 3 are playing well at the moment and at least with Sibley playing we will have a midfielder who’s 1st instinct is to be direct and run at players not take the safe option.

 Load of b0ll0x  We are a joke of a club a player who hasnt actually done anything wrong getd the sack the other 2 walkaway lightly Lawrence is wnk and bennett is no better!  Maybe keoghs captain but pretty sure he wasnt cheerleading them 2 to drink drive!  Load of poo! 

Not done anything wrong? Wow our club captain has got in a car with a drunken younger player and not bothered to put a seatbelt on and now his career is over but he’s not done anything wrong?

That’s true but Bennett and Lawrence continue to be part of the team. Keogh is a scapegoat for some reason. Crazy decision all round. 

It’s not crazy as he’s not capable of doing what the club pay him for it’s as simple as that he will never play at this level again.

technically its the actions of Lawrence and Bennett, he was a passenger not a driver

But they are fit to play or they would be in the same boat

I meant in comparison with the way the club treated the other two.

I know what your saying but they are both fit to play so like it or not they are capable of doing the job the club pays them for.

if Keogh was 10 years younger and a quality striker there is no way you sack him even with the injuries, 

Not sure about that to be honest I would be surprised if any club would pay someone £25k a week when he could be out for 18 months all due to his own actions.

1 minute ago, CornwallRam said:

Legally speaking he broke the law by not wearing a seat belt. 

He was almost certainly in breach of contract by acting recklessly in getting into the car of an intoxicated driver.

I suspect that the club could easily find grounds to sack Lawrence and Bennett, but they at least have value as players. Keogh is unlikely to ever be good enough to play at Championship level again, so getting rid of him makes financial sense, even if it is a bit morally questionable. 

Not sure it is morally questionable,why should Derby pay him £25k a week for 10 months after being injured in this way?

The lack of consistency with the relatively  light punishments levied on Lawrence and Bennett worries me. If Keogh is sacked then they all should be. Then again that’s where the commercial side comes into consideration... maybe they were happy to let Keogh go but the 7.5 m spent on Lawrence is another thing....

If Lawrence or Bennett had major injuries from the accident they would be out the door to.

So based on that club statement, I'd expect both Lawrence and Bennett to be sold in January. 

Why they are both Fully fit.

The other 2 idiots are fit to work, Keogh isn’t fit to work due to his poor decision. 
If a member of my staff made themselves unfit for work and incapable of their daily duties caused by a similar scenario. I wouldn’t be paying them to stay at home, they’d get their marching orders. Richard Keogh should be no different. 
I wouldn’t pay him a cent until he’s fit to return to work and the other 2 should consider themselves lucky they avoided injury and are available for selection. 

Spot on if the other could not play for 12 months I would expect the same,if I injured myself while drink driving I wouldn’t expect to get paid for 12 months while unable to work.
