YorkshireRam Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 really don't agree.... Think you'll see more often on the bench. Agree he works hard not doubting that.... The main point for me is he was a marquee signing.... Ability to be a 20 a season man we were told. I really can't remember a game where I thought Johnny Russell was difference between the two sides.... We have to agree to disagree.Gary Teale.... Well I will agree with thatBirmingham away last season, Russell was exceptional, rounded it off with a goal at the end too. Wolves at home also, a terrific game from him.1 player isn't usually the difference between 2 sides with the exception of Ince, Martin and Hughes who, we all agree, are a class above.

YorkshireRam Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Just spoke to Johnny Russell outside Blundell Park and he said "I'm I ****" . Take from that as you wish Gonna literally have to spell that out for me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Hendrick can take the game by the scruff of neck too... Bryson has proved it too previous season before last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derbylad92 Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Matt Ritchie age 25 senior app 257 goals 53 johnny russell age 25 senior app 214 goals 58 so if matt Ritchie came up you wouldn't want to sign him coz he's got a worst record then russell! Russell's class end off so next topic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrimsbyRamBrad Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Few too many! I spoke to Johnny Russell outside Blundell Park and I asked him about moving to Cardiff and his reply was "Am I ****". Apologies Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YorkshireRam Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Fair points on them two games.... Think Hendrick can take the game by the scruff of neck too... Bryson has proved it too previous season before last. I agree though in that Russell can sometimes be absent from games. He also suffers at times from poor decision making. If he had the footballing brain of Hughes, he'd be one of the best in the Premier League because he quite clearly posseses the technical ability, just his application is sometimes lacking...In regards to Bryson, let's hope under Clement we see a return to form for him. 2013/14 Bryson was one of the best midfielders I have ever seen play for Derby!

If he put two and two together he would be a class player no doubt. Hope Bryson does rediscover his form Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YorkshireRam Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Few too many! I spoke to Johnny Russell outside Blundell Park and I asked him about moving to Cardiff and his reply was "Am I ****". Apologies Hahaha top lad Johnny! Thanks for posting this though in all seriousness. If a player doesn't want to move, it's highly doubtful a move will materialise. Looks like we're keeping Johnny for the time being. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derbylad92 Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Just like will Hughes he's ment to be world class how come half of the prem ain't after him? Because derby don't want to sell we are trying to build instead of being like the old derby get a good player and just sell that's the reason because we r just not interested Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derbylad92 Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Well Pritchard is 22 still and if your going down them lines are you saying Hendricks better then will Hughes coz villa have been linked with Hendricks and no other prem teams have been linked with Hughes this season? U chat b****** mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mafiabob Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 You started the comparison game.... So I reckon "you went down them lines"As for chatting bull s hit.... Only 99% of the time. All the time. So I'll give you that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derbylad92 Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Could bring any number of column inches regarding Will Hughes, reliable and unreliable....Cant find any on Russell well if there that reliable how come no offers have come in don't get me wrong Hughes is a great player and could cut it in the prem but even everybody has there off days and good days some games Hughes is no where to be seen but know body says owt about him and when he comes to strength u all take about Hendricks but Hughes is very light weight so even tho he's probs most valuable player in our team still shows every can have off days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Scarlet Pimpernel Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 Johnny Russell over uses the nutmeg in his game. Very often him losing the ball when looking like trying to go through players is down to that. I used to be guilty of over using it myself. It can be very easy to mug players off with speed of thought & the skill to do it but if done too much it is picked up pretty quickly. A bit better coaching in making him retain the ball or turn back on himself occasionally would improve his game no end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
