PistoldPete2 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 I have no problem with taking nugent and vydra off they ran their socks off. But that meant no one to run after the long balls so we ended up just lumping it forward. It really needed a change of formation when those two went off back to 4-3-3 with hughes on. That's how you keep possession ,not lumping it forward and letting the opposition come back at you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's that simple. Preston had one shot on goal all night so we can moan about our inability to defend but they were restricted to a single attempt so how bad can the defence have played?

What's so great about Derby over Preston? 6 hours ago, GerryDaly said: Coz we love accepting DCFC as a middle championship side ... Where were they when Mac came in? Where were they when Clough came in? Where we're they when Billy Davies came in? Where were they when George Burley came in? Between relegation from the PL the first time and 2017 what is our average position? Say what you like about the match but it's embarrassing seeing Derby fans making out they're some footballing giant and moaning about clubs that have more honours than Derby do. Why mock Preston? Didn't they beat Derby in the play offs in one of our rare "failure" seasons? You're right. Some people need a reality check. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What I do expect though is if we decide to sit on a 1-0 lead, (showing our intentions to Preston that fact - I.e a free kick into the box with only Bent in it!!?) Is hard work. lots of players seemed to have the attitude that others will pick up their slack in the last 5/10 mins. You can sit back deep and defend a slender lead I've no problem with that , but it requires harder work I'm afraid than a few players were prepared to give An interesting point.

And you can trott out all his statistics and win ratio's forever, as I still think his p1sh will end up being the highest! If that's what floats your boat go for it.

ollycutts1982 Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 On a positive note, Vydra looked good. I would still like to see him more central though. I think him and Martin next year will be a great partnership. A sharp(er) Vydra would probably have had a couple tonight, if that was the case the mood might of been very different.

Cruel equaliser but brought it on ourselves because we clear the ball to them 7 times out of 10 and seem Incapable of holding the ball when under pressure. That said we did enough over the game to deserve that bit more, so a bit flat walking back but not too downhearted. Add some composure, remove some seemingly pointless substitutions and we would have cruised it. Vydra played well. Missed two chances, the first was just too high for him to get over it. If he'd scored the second it would have been a beauty. High and behind him, twisted, connected but just too awkward, so it was a row Z special. Very pleased he got his goal. Nuge over cooked it but Vydra was right place right time. He's good on the ball and intelligent. Russel had a cracking game .. Back to his best harrying, driving and being a bloody nuisance Johnson also had a stormer. The Fighting Vehicle was in full battle mode tonight. His whole demeanor when further up the pitch is better. He has swagger and confidence Baird .. Read the game very well. TBH he was tidier than Pearce tonight Nuge was Nuge .. Always willing but they clearly had instructions not to give him an inch. CHristie and Olsson were both very patchy .. Not close enough to their man when defending Butters gets a C for satisfactory Prsston are lucky to have that Ben Pearson .. Skilled, quick and very composed for 22. Never gave it away carelessly. loved the moment when they had their first sub .. He was about to throw in and had a little hissy fit throwing the ball down. East stand all went and did a camp "oooooh" and he scowled then stomped off like a 5 year old who wasn't allowed any more ice cream Anyway maybe it will be a bit better after a trip to the seaside COYR Russell had a good game but if that was him back to his best it's not a surprise we won't get promoted, we know he can do better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Realistically we are missing the spine of our team so expecting more is just optimism and if we can get them on the pitch regularly next season we could do very well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiddingsRam Posted March 8, 2017 Share Posted March 8, 2017 Maybe an.ovet reaction from some regarding last night's game . I took some positives out if the game for sure . The 2 central midfield players work both had decent games last night , Johnson was shattered and that challenge from McGeady just took it out of him . The front fours movement and interchange in play was good although during the final minutes of the game needed the ball to stick up there more , bringing Vydra off was probably a bit premature. Thought Baird did well again . Both full backs were poor both offensively and defensively . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did Vydra really look good? Or just better than what we have seen so far? Missed 2 good chances in the first half and his goal was very scruffy to say the least. Showed a few decent touches but still looking a very long way away from an £8m player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we retain this manager and players then we will be having the same discussion in a years time Obviously he hasn't. I'm talking about running the clock down like all other teams do. Nigel Cloughs team had a corner flag love in for the last 5 minutes of any game we were one up in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
