He did after the muck up with the Dutch lad and got very lucky with it as we had no one in midfield apart from Huddlestone ( even when Johnson played) but we still had no one who went past the centre circle in the opposition half Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I spoke with Bryso before the Red Dogs game & he told me he wanted to be back at the end of the season. Proper Ram & still plenty to offer. He is a rare footballer and is a man of integrity. I suspect also that JR was inclined to leave without Bryso being around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiddingsRam Posted May 30, 2018 Share Posted May 30, 2018 Bryson is genuinely one in a million and he loves Derby despite being pushed out the door to bring Keiftenbeld in (that went well) . Could still do a massive job next year hope he's here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlsonDerby Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 He loves derby and has given us some brilliant memories but, didn’t a journalist for Cardiff’s version of the DT suggest that he expects Cardiff to look for someone with more quality... a team not exactly renowned for needing technical ability in the middle of the pitch. Just something to consider. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just something to consider. They would be correct to do so too, Bryso possess' a lot of skills but technical ability isn't one of them. We don't nessecerily need a skillful midfielder right now, just one that can get the ball from A to B and in the goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rampage Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 I think that nearly all the players will be excited at having a new fair chance to show what they can do. Great time to be at Derby County. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EulogyForEvolution Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 I think Frank will like him based on what he said he's looking for in a player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sexydadbod Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 If we are going to use 4-3-3 then I’d keep Bryson as a back up, with Elsnik and Guy other back ups. I’d move the likes of Johnson and Butterfield and one of Ledley/Thorne on and then get 2 new centre midfielders, either loan or permanent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huddlestone Thorne/Ledley Bryson Hanson Elsnik Guy ??? ??? Seems a lot for 3 positions. 3 of them are holding midfielders. The other 5 (depending on who we'd sign) being the attacking two. It's a problem area. Too many slow players. Personally I'd quite happily see them all go apart from Elsnick, Guy and two experienced heads (Huddlestone and Bryson maybe). Then sign one or two quality loans maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whoneedshuls Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 I’d love to see Bryson stay if he stays injury free most of the season I can see him having a good season in front of goal as he’s exactly the type of player that will do well under frank. Box to box midfield with bags of energy.. please stay Craig ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnigmaRam Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 A lot will depend on the formation that Frank wants to adopt and also what youth he wants to play and new faces he wants to bring in. hudds, Thorne, Bryson, Johnson, Ledley, butters, Elsnik, guy, Hanson. That’s 9 CMs without any other signings made. If bids come in for our older players they simply have to go to free up wages and space in the squad for the next generation coming through either from the academy or elsewhere. if Bryson is to be considered a first teamer who is picked every game to justify his £20-£25k a week wages fair enough but if not he needs to be moved in if possible ideally for a fee.

Rammed79 Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 Hope he stays for the rest of his career and then we build a statue of him on his knees celebrating that third goal against the red dogs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he doesn’t get picked I think Morris will want him moved on anyway, same goes for Ledley. Two big earners that we might as well halve the loss of wages, as stomach it all not to have them playing.

I think Morris will look at elsnick and Guy and a few others and decide whether they are good enough to make the step up. If not why keep them?

Edtheram Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 People banging on about Bryson, Hes been here too long and isn't the same player anymore. While were at it lets Play Martin up top and pick our team around the Play off final bottling XI.......Get used to change - we need progression.

We totally dominated the game and they shut up shop like we did all season to get a lucky break that cost ya the match. We didn’t bottle it at all, Jeez!

Topram Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Thing is Bryson has now felt what promotion is, ask him I bet he’d say he wished it was at Derby, he knows what it takes and that could be massive for us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingsy1884 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Adding another player with promotion experience isnt a bad idea at all. If we play a midfield 3 i would keep Bryson, huddz, elsnik, guy and Thorne. I would accept anything for the rest of them. A few chocolate buttons would do it, or a half decent Triumph TR7.

RadioactiveWaste Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 A rusty TR7 or TR7 shaped rust? Although triumph motorcycles are actually really good these days, perhaps there'd be a market for TR6 or Spitfire modernisation models, like the "new" Bonniville etc? Anyway, not sell priority but listen to offers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
