He won't integrate him into the squad sending him to train with the under 23s! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking more maybe along the lines of sending him to the U23's and saying to him get fit, have a few games, make/receive a few crunching tackles without the pressure of first team football.

Rev Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 I'm a fan of both George and Chris, but I suspect they've played their last 1st team football for Derby under the current regime, unless we're decimated by injuries. I hope I'm wrong, but it's been a fair while since they've performed at a level that would make them integral to this team, for various reasons beyond their control. The above should guarantee them both starts tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if he has no plans for them. He may get a surprise or another club may want to pick them up for a loan to a future purchase. Sorry, but Lampard doesn't owe anything to anyone with respect to team selection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Van der MoodHoover Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 1 hour ago, NorfolkRam said: He's going to make a fair few changes tonight. Take CM as the easy example. say he's not involved, does FL say he isn't fir? I don't think many would buy that as he has had ample minutes for the U23's to get at least half an hour in the league cup. When you look realistically, Nugent won't travel as we have two new strikers itching for minutes, the the system you can only start one of them, potentially put MW on the wing but then you take that away from the wingers that need minutes, so say like the last LC game Marriott starts with MW on the bench and MW comes on, theirs no place for Martin. If he can't even get game time in a league cup round 2 game then how is he ever going to get game time in the league? Sort of comment I’d expect from @coneheadjohn......?

Bazal77 Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 i really hope we see Thorne start today and that he has an absolutely stunning match and starts every game between now and when we win the champions league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimbo jones Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 Would love to see him involved tonight. We are crying out for a cdm, no pressure game, five him a run out and see where he’s at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramarena Posted August 28, 2018 Share Posted August 28, 2018 Seems a real shame but there must be a reason, maybe it's something we don't see/are not aware of......... not long left for him to get a move either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
