We seem to buy a lot of players that aren't better than we already have. True i find it odd that chris evans spends every match day watching Derby. chris. Get off your jacksey. Go and watch some players. Go to holland. Go to wherever. Find the players that we can build a team around without splashing silly money. why are you sat looking at the back of sam rush's head every week?

A good player but he cannot play 4-3-3 and that's always going to be our system while McLaren is around. Wouldn't sellling at a loss create fpp problem?

Given the dross we've signed in the last 2-3 years, I can't believe our recruitment team are still in jobs. Why was Chris Evans re-appointed? He did absolutely nothing to make the squad any better than before he arrived the first time. I was deeply uneasy about the amount of money being spent around the time we bought Johnson and Butterfield, and it's only been worse since then.

Yes, we have a bloated staff who won't be looking forward to their annual appraisal. I just hope Mel and Sam do a good job in their assessment of how to take the club forward. We have to get rid of the 'bottler' image else no player will want to join us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derbyram1983 Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 What happened to the days when we used to sign one really good player a season? Obviousky we used to compliment that with loans and maybe a couple more signings. Thorne, barker, keogh(depends if you rate him but when we signed him he was a lot better than what we already had) I think we need one or two quality players. Ship lots out and use young players if they are good enough as squad players or on the bench as we have a few good players coming through. We have a good squad but not a good team so that says we are buying quantity over quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papahet Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Id expect upto 15 gone this summer. Roos, Bennett, Santos, Vydra, Baird, Bent, Camara, Blackman, Weimann, Russell, Bryson, Olsson, Shackell. Get ten million tops for the lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd personally see if Baird can't be persuaded for another season as a backup, but he shouldn't be let go without another RB being in place first. Vydra would be disappointed for him, but I fear he's gone the way of Blackman. I think Russell will be dependent on bids coming in, I think Mac is a fan so won't actively get rid.

Butterfield, Johnson, Vydra, Blackman can't see us being able to ship any of them for free unless we paid their wages at the other club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jono Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Realistically do clubs ever have BIG clear outs at the end of a single season ? I get the feeling it's a general dribble over time as contracts run down, miserable offers are made that we either accept gloomily or snatch at depending on who it is and how much. We have some players that don't fit for various reasons: we payed so much money for we wouldn't want to see the loss they have a long contract that they couldn't get anywhere else so are happy to go training every week for what most people earn in a year. have reached an age where performances have peaked and are on a gradual slide in to veteran status they were simply bad buys - we saw something that has never materialised on the pitch they don't fit any conceivable system we might play Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
