Bob The Badger Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 He reminds me a tad like Leighton James. It took LJ a while to build up supporter love. Tom was easily Derby's best player today and I really feel like his is maturing and wanting to take a game by the scruff of the neck. I'm still disappointed that we lost Ince and wonder if those two could have played together and terrorized defenses. Maybe too similar, but they'd still have had defenses changing underwear regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would provide us with more energy than recent weeks. I stated this before but I think that Wisdom would be brilliant at centre back for us as he has all of the attributes.

Mckram Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Not been Lawrence’s biggest fan but only because he lacked any fight and effort. Today he showed it and looked great, just a shame nobody else joined him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't like these physical contests, I'd actually leave him out on Tuesday and play Palmer instead using the same system as today. Correct decision to sub him, despite the token boos. Of all the players today Vydra was the one that didn’t step up for the battle. Don’t think it’s because he doesn’t try more his mindset isn’t right, his head goes down far too easily.

Mr Tibbs Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 Top marks from me today. The only player who had any creativity, drive and determination in our attacking line up. Hope he carries on like this, have seen an improvement since his Preston goal. As @Ambitious pointed out earlier, he’s literally been given zero chance to shine from our dour tactics. He was picking the ball up on the halfway line in the second half, such a waste of a player, even if he doesn’t make the right decisions every time.

Ramarena Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 There's been a bit of talk about vydra leaving and it actually benefitting us. Now I like vydra he's scored a lot of goals but if he were to depart it may help the team dynamic. Lawrence would certainly benefit as it would allow him to play more centrally and he's more of a "number 10" than vydra. I wonder if selling vydra and using the money to add 2 quality widemen (one a loan) and a striker would help balance out attacking options?

derbydaz22 Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 What about all the long balls launched at them ? They would have no chance,even Messi would hardly get a kick with our service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roboram Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 A bit too greedy for me. He's just got to learn how to pass & he'll be ok (Mind you, I doubt if I'd pass to them lot) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, yeah I know work rate is "the least we should expect" but his performance is still worthy of a mention. From small acorns can grow... erm... bigger acorns or something. Bravo Tom! The best post of the weekend mate, I feel next season Tom Lawrance will become a very important player for us, and will score and create a lot more for us than this season, you can see he has a lot more to offer, so let's all get behind him and give him the support that he needs and in return we will get the best out of him, last year Ipswich fans say he was excellent and a cut Above the championship, so let's get behind a good, skillful, young English player with bags of potential, because I know us Derby fans always get behind this type of player LOL.

Previously he’s spent too much time looking sullen and mardy. He’s clearly hurt by the critics so he should channel that into his game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PodgeyRam Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 Sounds like he had a good game and as has been mentioned by others on here, he looks a lot better when playing in a central role. Which makes me wonder why Rowett bought him only to play him out wide when he clearly isn't a natural wideman? If Vydra leaves in the summer, which seems likely, Lawrence should be moved into that central role and we should go out and buy some actual wingers.

EnigmaRam Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 Never doubted him. He would be better suited centrally as suggested. Problem is that's Vydra, palmer and Lawrence all better centrally. Personally I'd drop nuge and move Vydra forward and play palmer central. We ain't gonna win any battles in the air against cardiffs big lumps so need to keep it on the deck. If only we had someone up front that could hold it up and flick it on to runners feet!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Rowett didn’t anticipate Vydra’s success initially. Lawrence was probably signed with a view to playing centrally in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
