RamNut Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Another good win. Still tight at the top with boro and Bournemouth winning too . Games against them will be vital, but we need to keep winning against the lesser teams. Only the forest game has marred an excellent run of wins and clean sheets. Yeah but what a game to go crap in!

Curtains Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 McClaren not that happy with 2nd half and praised Grant. Praised defense . Bucko has ankle problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He never looked happy every time the camera went to him. And was arguing with the 4th official with 2 mins to go. Something ruffled his feathers, or is he now turning the screw to up our standards and his expectations for the 'business-end' of the season?

Heisenberg Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Good win that. Totally controlled the first half, with two top class goals to show for it. 7 clean sheets out of 8 too, superb. A little concerned with the amount of knocks we appear to be picking up though, could do with a couple of bodies coming in next week, especially after losing Dawkins to what looks like another injury.

Curtains Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I think you might be right. He emphasised wide players though didn't he? Yes he did . I think he's going for it and making sure of promotion because of Bournemouth and Middlesborough Looking forward to seeing who's coming in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree I think he is becoming more picky. quite right too. Big result today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bris Vegas Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I don't think SM was too happy with a few challenges. Hughes and Dawkins got clattered on more than one occasion and both seemed to struggle to shake off the knocks. But also he will be abit disappointed with our attacking play. Martin IMO was wasteful second half. Ran through a couple of times and played a poor final ball. Bennett was in down the right but he overplayed the pass by quite some distance which was frustrating.

North_Stand_Ram Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Back in the car GET IN Grant 9 - Caughed at saved everything. Faultless for what he was required to do. Shotton 9 - immense. Position change didn't alter his game. Keogh 8 - poor distribution but excellent in the air and defensively. Buxton NA Forsyth 8 - game has stepped up since Warnock came in... Mascarrell 9 - MOTM. Brilliant AWAY FROM HOME. Quality stuff. Hendricks 6 - thought he had a poor game. Hughes 8 - top, top player. Special. Dawkins 5 - same old same old im afraid. Just an opinion I don't think he influences the game enough Martin 7 - not his best. But he scored and his head didn't drop after the miss Wardy 8 - much, much better. Back to his best Subs Bennett 6 - has pace to burn, bit non existent defensively but he has something. Bryson NA Christie 7 - quality cross for the second. Bit more reserved today, but did him the world of good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RamFan13 Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Actually quite surprised on how easy that was, still don't understand why you'd leave your top goal scorer on the bench though? Very good performance from Derby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alph Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Well that was easy!! But... lol Some awful distribution from the back. And some of the sloppiness was inexcusable whatever the result. We're talking Keogh passing to players 5 yards away and either smashing it at them or missing them. And Martin on a promising counter with Hughes... he's 2 yards away? How does the pass not reach him? Buxton was trying needless Hollywood passes. Why? Why?!?!? Forsyth has been playing much better. But he still has to sneak in hoofs. Bryson came on and I thought here's his chance to push Hendrick out. No chance. Gets the ball in acres of space with 3 hours to control it and he heads it straight up in the air. Then that... well, whatever it was? Cross? Shot? Couldn't even tell. Off the ball we were great. Superb discipline and hard graft. And everytime we showed any glimpse of quality it was like a hot knife through butter. Any sign of crisp accurate passing (didn't even require a great deal of movement) and they were all over the place. The opposite of us. Can see why McClaren isn't too thrilled with our performance. But spells of it showed our class. And won the game. How did we get a penalty? What for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alph Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Hughes always seems to get clattered. Only way to stop him playing at the minute. Everyone kicks chunks out of him. Always seems to be at least one moment per match where either the intention is, or the frustration forces, a late "nothing" tackle where he's got studs left in him.
