DcFc Dyycheee Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Come on Conor, prove me wrong and have a good game lad. But I have to agree, Why don't Jacobs go on the left, with Hughes on the right? Hmm. Maybe NC think Doyle can keep the possession more?

Duracell Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Why does Clough do this? Jacobs is the safe obvious choice to replace Coutts, if we don't perform this decision will be crucified. Let's hope that Doyle has a great game, but I am all of a sudden a lot more concerned than I was ten minutes ago.... Doyle's performances for the U21s have been brilliant. Shouldn't places be awarded on merit? Call me stupid, but I think Doyle should be judged on training and U21 performances. Not one game 10 months ago. But hey ho.

DCFCfranco Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Rams boss Nigel Clough makes one enforced change to the side that won so convincingly over Watford at Pride Park Stadium, prior to the international break. Despite returning to training yesterday, former Preston North End midfielder Paul Coutts misses out through illness, so in comes American youth international Conor Doyle on the right-hand side of midfield. Doyle is handed his first start for the Club in 10 months, after last appearing in the side’s 3-2 defeat Peterborough United at London Road in November last season. The 20-year-old has been in fine form for the Rams’ newly formed under-21 team this season; netting two goals in the side’s last three games against Sheffield Wednesday, Leicester City and Leeds United respectively. Elsewhere, James O’Connor keeps his place in the starting XI following impressive displays in the Rams’ previous three fixtures, whilst Jake Buxton has to make do with a place amongst the substitutes. Gareth Roberts has fully recovered from the hamstring complaint he picked up in the 5-1 victory over the Hornerts at Pride Park that forced the former Doncaster Rovers defender to withdraw midway through the second half.

-JW- Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 There must be something about Doyle, i'd rather see Jacobs play, but i'm more than willing to give Doyle a chance. I remember the Peterboro game last year when he was hiding and just didn't want the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davenportram Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Jacobs could have played on the left, with Hughes on the right?? True but is hughes as effective on the right as he is on the left? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davenportram Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 well i can not believe it Doyle starts before jacobs what the F**K IS CLOUGH thinking. Possibly thinking about all the football hes seen both players play and training hes seen them do that we are not privy to. Just a hunch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Hughes cutting in from the right would be interesting to see. But lets give Doyle a chance, for all intents and purposes this season is his last chance, he needs to step up. Maybe he will..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'http://www.dcfcfans.co.uk/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/tongue' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':P' /> I am just saying that it is a very brave decision that opens up Cloughie for criticism if it all goes pear shaped this afto. I admire he has the guts to make the decision that is obviously based on U21 and training, but Jacobs has hardly been a slouch either in that regard. Put it this way if Jacobs had been selected and we played poorly how many would have been saying Cloughie is an idiot as he should have picked Doyle!? I hope Conor has a blinder and justifies the decision Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope Conor has a blinder and justifies the decision I'm just glad that Clough is not picking players on what the reaction might be from supporters if we end up playing rubbish. Has anyone seen Doyle in the U21s this season and if so, what's he been like? Anyway, so glad that negative ninny Coutts has been axed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't disagree, but if he is wrong it is more ammunition for those that criticise him for these very decisions and after enough of these types of decisions perhaps there is enough evidence to say they are right to react that way.
