Rather him try it now than against Brighton. 

Friendlies are for trying, the league is for doing.

Listening to foreign commentary is fun. Picking the english words every now and again and trying to work out exactly what they're saying.

Camera panned onto Pearson and the words I recognised in order were:

Nigel Pearson, Derby County, Leicester, Claudio Ranieri, Premier League. :lol:

Completely free header. Someone didn't do their job and will have a finger wagged at them I imagine.

Anyone concerned that Martin's new fitness was going to impede his ability to fall down seemingly at random can now put their fears to rest, by the way.

Bryson isn't holding back with his tackling.

There's a difficult balance in friendlies between showing too much respect and being too aggressive. At least he's an improvement on Buxton in that regard.

The amount of Benfica players who are able to play comfortably when being pressured by 2 Derby players really highlights their level. In the Championship some teams have maybe "a few" players capable of that.

 

EDIT: Was that Pearce who just GOT DONE?

Yes it was. The player almost did himself though.
