    it'll be the exact same team to start, can't change a winning team etc.
    Barks, Hourihane and Waggy  on at 60

    Fantastic result away from home, Can't imagine anyone less than a 7.5 today,
    all excellent, sheer elegance for the goals - takes me back to the heady days of
    the 14/15  season. What a way to score your first goal for Derby - wasn't it Smith's
    tackle that helped win the ball back for Derby in the first place?
     
    Quite right that  Fornah and Nyambe are great additions, and are already accomplished
    players, and seem to have slotted straight in....UTR

    Cracking result, not many teams will go there and turn them over. Thought we sat back and invited too much pressure though and feared the worst when they eventually did breach our back line. 
    Shows what I know, we sucker punched 'em with a third. Thought Fornah was excellent. In fact all the starting midfield put in a great shift. Birdy will get even better as his match fitness returns.
    A big shout out to Wildsmith too. His save from Rhodes in the 1st half was world class and gave us a platform to go on and win the game. Had that gone in the game could have gone in a completely different direction.

    If it helps, we’ve got a game in hand on the teams occupying 4th, 5th and 6th place. IF we can win that game in hand we’ll be 4th, meeting that expectation of top 6.
    You’re right there are still improvements to make, not sure there’s “massive work” as you term it, more fine tuning and establishing some consistency. Can’t you see any shoots of improvement and reasons for optimism from tonight? Or the good away form in general?
    Players returning from injury providing depth and competition, 3 goals scored away from home, a win at a team previously unbeaten at home this season, a win against a team that embarrassed us in the cup a few weeks back, a solid looking defence over the last few games, we are on a mini unbeaten run too. It’s not all bleak.

    Nyambe and Fornah look great signings,  if we can get better at breaking teams down at home we should be looking to be top 4minimum. We might play rubbish and finish top 2 this season.

    I would like to apologise to what appears to be a good number of my fellow Rams fans on these pages.  I have driven for about 5 hours today, spent £40 on petrol, £25 on a ticket and another £10 odd on sundries like the best pie I’ve had in ages, parking and a programme. The weather was fantastic, the scenery only matched by the Peak District and the ground was a proper old football ground with, from my seat, the wierdest view in football.
    Oh, and although it’s hard to gather from these pages, my, our, team won. 2-0 away from home against a team in good form according to their manager, late of this parish, and with some excellent individual performances, an improved overall team performance, in front of a vociferous and supportive away following.
    I’ve had a cracking day. Sorry.

    This was the best pressing we have done all areas on by a long way. Top class. Made all the difference.
    I think Fornah will make a great impact but question is who we drop to fit him in. Still not impressed with Hourihane’s overall impact. 
     
    Tommo had an excellent game and after an awful first 10-15 mins the back three really hit it together. Rooney much better when he came closer to his player and Nelson again looked good in central defence. Does bring us back to the Bradley talking point though and whether it was a good signing.  
    Anyway- a bizarre game in many ways but a great win which will boost team confidence immensely.
    So happy for Waggs. Would like Wash to get a goal.

    To bring things back into focus for @IlsonDerby’s benefit, I think this should be the lineup for Saturday. With a bench of Vickers (if fit), Wilson, Rooney, Thompson, Washington, Barkhuizen (if fit), Waghorn (if signed). 
    NML and Bird to get into those attacking areas to support Collins as they have in pre-season, Forsyth offering a more solid option than Thompson on the left who can come on to rest Fozzy’s legs once we’re comfortably in the lead.
