    Yeah, wouldn't object to either of those options either. We can't play Sibley and White together though because I can't tell them apart.

    Knight back at RB for me. I thought Hourihane, Bird and White worked well against Posh.

    Thought our general play was encouraging tbh. One good summer window of recruitment and we'll win the division next season assuming we're still in it.

    Wildsmith       5.5   Could have done better on the second goal
    Smith              3.5    Errant passes, usual poor standard of crosses, fell over when challenged, fell over when not challenged, improved a bit second half (presumably as he sobered up) but that was clearing the lowest of bars
    Davies            5   Father Time appears to have caught up with the wonderful Curtis. Part of a shocking defence until replaced at HT but did manage a key tackle and several headed clearances. Also had to operate between Smith and Cashin which can't have been easy yesterday
    Roberts           7     MOTM for me. Was positive every time he received possession and seems to enjoy working with Dobbin down the left. Must start at LB
    Cashin         3.5    Never shirked from taking responsibility but had a shocker. Remains a fine prospect and fan favourite but maybe time for a breather?
    Forsyth      5      Better when playing at CB these days. Not the 300th appearance he would have hoped for as nothing he tried from LB was as good as Roberts managed
    Bird          5.5     Not match fit but 90 mins would help towards that. The lad can pass but we seem to bypass midfield too often which will always affect his influence on a game. Largely anonymous.
    Hourihane     5     Playing optimistic hoofs forward surely isn't Hourihane's game. Like Bird, wasted in the more direct way of playing we seem to have adopted. Should have influenced the game like Fleetwood's #16 did. Neither Bird or Hourihane appeared to be in the right area to pick up second balls either
    McGoldrick     5.5     Always made himself available but nothing really came off. Has to start if fit
    Mendez-Laing     5     Lacking the explosiveness of earlier season and another who could benefit from a break. May be injured anyway now
    Dobbin       7     Only player apart from Roberts to provide a spark and hopefully that will be our first choice left flank from now on. Could he operate as a #9? (see entry on Collins)
    Sibley        6     A little unlucky to be subbed after reasonable first half by comparison to his teammates. Plenty of challenging but little end product when in possession. Could he operate as a #9? (see entry on Collins)
    Barkhuizen     6   More involved than NML but better on left side of attack. Could he operate as a #9? (see entry on Collins)
    Springett     2.5     I've never given as low a mark before but not sure how low is too low. Tried to beat his man a couple of times but couldn't, never won an aerial challenge, operated on a different radio frequency to Forsyth as they tried to develop an understanding and hit a couple of crosses straight at the defender at no more than waist height. Performance summed up by him given a rare opportunity to run at his opponent and playing his first touch out for a throw in. The young lad just put his head in his hands. As did thousands of us. A genuine Nick Pickering of a performance. He'd looked alright up until now so have a break and go again Antonio. We are all with you
    Knight     4.5    10/10 for energy levels, 2/10 for poise, weight of touch, passing accuracy etc. Personally, I'd put him back at RB and shake up the midfield
    Collins     4   What kind of striker is he? He never seems to find space in the box when a cross comes in. Sometimes he hasn't even found the box when a cross comes in. He lacks the control to play as a hold-up man bringing others into the play. He hasn't the pace to play on the shoulder and race on to through balls looking for a one-on-one with the keeper. He's great at giving away fouls in all areas of the pitch and also at berating officials. The only area he matched Stockley of Fleetwood yesterday was in the reckless swinging of arms when challenging (both landed at least one nasty one on an opponent that could have seen red). Just a waste of a shirt imo and I'd rather see Cybulski given a go ahead of him if nobody other than Didzy can operate up top. 
     
    Thank you. That was rather cathartic.

    Rampant got a reaction from Tamworthram in Derby County V Fleetwood: Player Ratings   
    Wildsmith       5.5   Could have done better on the second goal
    Smith              3.5    Errant passes, usual poor standard of crosses, fell over when challenged, fell over when not challenged, improved a bit second half (presumably as he sobered up) but that was clearing the lowest of bars
    Davies            5   Father Time appears to have caught up with the wonderful Curtis. Part of a shocking defence until replaced at HT but did manage a key tackle and several headed clearances. Also had to operate between Smith and Cashin which can't have been easy yesterday
    Roberts           7     MOTM for me. Was positive every time he received possession and seems to enjoy working with Dobbin down the left. Must start at LB
    Cashin         3.5    Never shirked from taking responsibility but had a shocker. Remains a fine prospect and fan favourite but maybe time for a breather?
    Forsyth      5      Better when playing at CB these days. Not the 300th appearance he would have hoped for as nothing he tried from LB was as good as Roberts managed
    Bird          5.5     Not match fit but 90 mins would help towards that. The lad can pass but we seem to bypass midfield too often which will always affect his influence on a game. Largely anonymous.
    Hourihane     5     Playing optimistic hoofs forward surely isn't Hourihane's game. Like Bird, wasted in the more direct way of playing we seem to have adopted. Should have influenced the game like Fleetwood's #16 did. Neither Bird or Hourihane appeared to be in the right area to pick up second balls either
    McGoldrick     5.5     Always made himself available but nothing really came off. Has to start if fit
    Mendez-Laing     5     Lacking the explosiveness of earlier season and another who could benefit from a break. May be injured anyway now
    Dobbin       7     Only player apart from Roberts to provide a spark and hopefully that will be our first choice left flank from now on. Could he operate as a #9? (see entry on Collins)
    Sibley        6     A little unlucky to be subbed after reasonable first half by comparison to his teammates. Plenty of challenging but little end product when in possession. Could he operate as a #9? (see entry on Collins)
    Barkhuizen     6   More involved than NML but better on left side of attack. Could he operate as a #9? (see entry on Collins)
    Springett     2.5     I've never given as low a mark before but not sure how low is too low. Tried to beat his man a couple of times but couldn't, never won an aerial challenge, operated on a different radio frequency to Forsyth as they tried to develop an understanding and hit a couple of crosses straight at the defender at no more than waist height. Performance summed up by him given a rare opportunity to run at his opponent and playing his first touch out for a throw in. The young lad just put his head in his hands. As did thousands of us. A genuine Nick Pickering of a performance. He'd looked alright up until now so have a break and go again Antonio. We are all with you
    Knight     4.5    10/10 for energy levels, 2/10 for poise, weight of touch, passing accuracy etc. Personally, I'd put him back at RB and shake up the midfield
    Collins     4   What kind of striker is he? He never seems to find space in the box when a cross comes in. Sometimes he hasn't even found the box when a cross comes in. He lacks the control to play as a hold-up man bringing others into the play. He hasn't the pace to play on the shoulder and race on to through balls looking for a one-on-one with the keeper. He's great at giving away fouls in all areas of the pitch and also at berating officials. The only area he matched Stockley of Fleetwood yesterday was in the reckless swinging of arms when challenging (both landed at least one nasty one on an opponent that could have seen red). Just a waste of a shirt imo and I'd rather see Cybulski given a go ahead of him if nobody other than Didzy can operate up top. 
     
    Thank you. That was rather cathartic.
