Overall, pretty happy with that.
First half we were clearly the better side & being 0-1 down really flattered them. Thought we moved the ball around with confidence, lots of movement & the 3 of Lawrence, Aluko & Morrison looked really fluid. Lawrence really should have scored with a header from 6 yards out & Heaton pulled off a great save to deny Jagielka. Instead a bit of sloppiness from Bird, a fortunate ricochet to their lad after Roos saved & we went into half time 0-1 down.
Second half, Man Utd started to press a lot higher & it became harder to play through them. They started getting ascendancy early part of the second half, scored again & Pallestri right side for them was becoming a real problem. The mass substitution enabled us to get a foothold again & whilst they continued to have more of the ball, we looked really dangerous on the break - Kazim really prominent with his strength on the ball & intelligent passing. Cracking finish too from the big man.
Of the new boys;
Morrison - was excellent I thought. Dropped into pockets of space in midfield, always available for a pass & seemed to knit the back line/deeper midfield with the final third with his passing/direct runs. Some real quality touches too. Just what we've been missing in the side. Assuming Rooney can keep on top of his workrate & attitude, I think he'd be an excellent signing Aluko - started slower than Morrison but after the first 15 mins started to show real glimpses of class. Drifted from RW into the number 10 role & found plenty of space. Very direct, great touches & looked threatening. Also helped Byrne out on a few occasions even though it was very warm out there. Definitely would like him to sign also Baldock - worked really hard & thought he protected the ball well when it came to him. He didn't have any clear cut chances but his presence was definitely felt in that final third. Bit of a David Nugent vibe to him. Jagielka - in all honesty, had little to do first half but looked comfortable in possession anyway. Pretty sure he stepped up second half to allow Pallestri the space to score the second but other than, very sound. Also a threat in their box first half from set plays & unlucky not to score -

We look far more like the top-4 premier league side.

Bought a rams tv pass for this as I want to see how we set up and play today. It's not really about the result but about how we play and how we set up that I think is important.

it's an open air environment in fairness which means it's extremely hard to spread covid.

Probably a Florist fan with too much time on his hands? There was also a cryptic tweet from Ed Dawes about the significance of today.
Its still all gone quiet over there though.

Are you not a Malagueño?
Real Zaragoza for me. 2nd division, skint and struggling. What´s not to like?

I’m not convinced he’d fit in at Derby. Far too many forward passes for my liking. It will never catch on

I might not be that bad.
Ridsdale might be quite sympathetic to a club that is run in a shambolic and amateurish way.

So Stephen Pearce has stood down andthe EFL have appointed guys from Forest and Middlesboro.
If we weren't ducked before, we are now ?
