The period we had no striker you mean. Ok.
Oh so that’s the reason we lost our two recent games. No centre forward. Didn’t think of that! Who’d have thought. OK

So you'd prefer to assess our chances on a 3 match sample than one comprising half a season?
Okey, dokey 🙃
Yes because that reflects our form now rather than 6 months ago

We've only lost 4 of our last 22 in the league, so I'm not sure why we should expect to lose 3 of our next 10.
Perhaps because we’ve lost 2 out of that 4 in the last 3 games?

After the recent performances, who knows? Port Vale to win 1-0

Dare I say it - Pride Park Forest? Where Forest play at Derby for a huge rental

Not too bothered about who is manager so long as we play reasonably well and win, and get promoted. At the moment I can’t see us as anything but a League 1 team for the foreseeable.

Can’t get too optimistic. 1-1 Barkhuizen

Around here you ask for a pea mix and they look at ya gone out!
Ugh. It looks like you’ve lost control of your anal sphincter

Not getting away with this one. A defeat I’m afraid 2-0

Want to see us playing our preferred system regardless of what we think the oppo will do. Give players the same job to do game after game and most will do much better than when they get new instructions each week. We’ve got a strong enough squad to play our own way. 3 at the back please and make it decent to watch . Give Ward and Wilson a start. Give Bradley the chance to keep improving. If Sibley is to be our super sub, give him time enough
play it fast and short with lots of movement. nil something.
Hmm. Under SM1, we had exciting, attacking football but we were found out and teams worked out how to nullify us. We didn’t change, just carried on and started losing and drawing more. We need to change tactics according to the opposition.

I just hope that fans aren’t bigging Gayle up too much and expecting a hat trick on his debut. I remember him at Newcastle but we are not getting that Gayle. We are getting a player several years older but I feel he’ll do well given a few matches.

Ché Adams, Aaron Connolly, Kelechi Iheanacho, Kayden Jackson and Tyrese Campbell are all free agents in the summer.
Which ones would you choose to replace our old strike force in the summer, who are also free agents and the list includes Connor Washington and martyn waghorn.
Blimey, we’ve already got Tyreece J-J, and Tyrese Fornah, I can’t cope with another

Until these suit Derby at which point they'll pop up again in a flash. But have you considered the possibility it was the scoreline that was "false" rather than the stats? Seeing as they are a broader sample and football is notoriously unfair.
More than anything it shows how blinkered fans are by results. On chances created (objective no emotion bias or agendas) we didn't deserve to win the game, yet nobody out of a 100 seems to think so.
Yep. But chances created against shots are a number and therefore create a statistic.

Yes but 6 of ours were on target to their 2 😉
True but a shot on target could be direct to the keeper’s arms or a fluffed one whereas shots not on target could have missed by a whisker

And here’s me thinking that we lost those two games because we were utter crap. And apparently it was because we didn’t have a centre forward. I stand corrected….
