  1. Wildsmith 7-

    think he’s been very good for us, his long range kicking isn’t the best but he’s had a very good start

    Roberts 7

    solid 

    Chester 7

    solid pro

    Davies 6

    still looks injured 

    Cashin 7.5

    couple brilliant last ditch tackles 

    Bird 5

    struggled again

    Houraine 7

    was a 5 until his 2 goals his quality won us the game

    Knight 7

    chased everything gave us that extra energy 

    Barkhauzin 7 

    Didn’t get much going forward but did his job all game and kept trying 

    Sibley 6.5

    wasn’t his best slowed stuff down at times but kept going all game 

    Mcgoldrick 7.5

    Most of our attacking play went through him 

    NML 8

    Along with the tactical change he improved us so much, his running at them caused them nightmares 

    Collins 7.5 

    Like NML he helped change the game, not in the fact he did much but he gave Mcgoldrick the chance to go deeper to start the attacks, he chased everything down maybe being dropped helped. 
     

    LR 8

    His subs worked perfectly

     

    Overall a big big 3 points, much deserved in the end after a poor first 30 minutes

    Early in the second half I decided the only way we might get back into the game was if I had a change of scenery, so I popped out into the Tower of London Moat (currently planted for the Superbloom), listening to the Radio Derby commentary in the sunshine. Hourihane scored and I laughed as I knew this post would come back to haunt me, but I was delighted and thought I'd take just a tiny amount of vicarious credit. As fans we do everything we can to suck the ball into the opposition net.

    Then I cheered when the winner went in and was spotted by a Beefeater mate (sadly a dirty Leeds fan) who came out to see what the fuss was about. But he wasn't averse to toasting the mighty Derby with some of my vodka and tonic (off duty).

    I worried with the lineup that we simply didn't have enough attacking players on the pitch at the beginning, so well done to Liam for realizing and changing things up. It sounded as if the second half was much better. It's such an important win, going into a break on a high (late goals, especially winners, breed confidence), tweaking the setup for the better with Knight in midfield, and ditching the goalkicks. We could be on the right track.

    Watching the game at any point before he scored I wouldn’t of been bothered if he was taken off as he was just like Bird…poor but he’s got that quality others haven’t and that showed 

  3. First half was very much like Tuesday night, really struggled to get going  but in the end still had all the hall and chances just didn’t take them, second half different shape changed the game, more tempo faster movement just much better, NML and Collins helped change the game, 2 great finishes by Houraine after being poor all game his quality came out on top! big 3 points in the end!
