This is as poor as I have ever seen Derby "play". Too many new players, it's that simple.

You really can't have watched us very often.

[SaintRam]

6 to 4 Shots

3 to 1 on target

3 to 6 Corners

9 to 4 fouls 

0 cards.

 

Another thing is for all our supposed excellent set piece takers we've brought in, who now fight over every FK, ONE of our SIX corners has beaten the first man, and it went over everyone's heads.

With buttefield Cdm the team will be a shambles, the best team we can field in my opinion  is:

Carson

Wisdom  davies perace Malone

       Hudds  evans

 Jozefoon        Mount   Waghorn

                       Marriot

We have signed loads of players but not addressed key areas of the team e.g Cb and holding midfielder , so our team is looking worse not better than last year.

I’d go for a similar team apart from Wilson in for Waghorn and Tomori instead of Wisdom.

[TroyDyer]

Lamps will be gone by Xmas at this rate. 

The biggest fear is the sheer cluelessness of everything we're doing. 

With a defence like ours, you would need to  score an average of 3 or 4 goals a game to get a decent points haul.

balls to pressing, Butters and Evans in. Solved. 

I’d honestly rather have those 2 in this team than Johnson & Bryson. What’s the news on Huddlestone? We need him back asap

[Sparkle]

Well the one positive was flojo on the right wing 

system is dreadful 

just stop playing out from the back when there is a full on press 

[Bazal77]

Be a different game after half time 4-2 rams 

[G-Ram]

This is poor we’re making Millwall look like a 1970’s Brazil... we cant put more that two passes together unless its backwards & we’re all over the place at the back... we’ve gifted them two goals

daft as it sounds if we actually shape ourselves & pull our finger out second half we can win this... millwall havent been great 

[Norman]

Hate to bash certain players. Don't think I have ever had a go at one on here other than Johnson.

And I'm going to have another go now.

He can't head. He can't tackle. He can't time tackles. He doesn't intercept. First touch is abysmal. Second touch goes out of play.

There are others having bad games. But you can see a footballer somewhere in them all. Bit not Johnson

 Woeful player. Get Evans on and watch us improve. 

Poor performances at CDM have cost us in all the league games so far.

[Bris Vegas]

I'm all for playing the youth, and building towards something. Use this as a transitional season.

But if you're going to do that, why waste £5m on Waghorn and £30k per week wages? It was utterly pointless. We should have used that money to solve the holding midfield and linking midfield slots.

I'm glad Bogle has been brought in. Wisdom is crap and offers nothing long-term.

Next summer we can finally get rid of the stain which is on our club. So many crap overpaid players stealing a living off us.

[BathRam72]

I was worried pre-season with playing the ball out from the back. I get if you just hoof it then at best you have a 50/50 chance of picking up the ball. But you have to be good enough to keep the ball if you are going to play it out,  we are not. Carry on like this and we will be ripped apart week in week out

This comment comes out from someone every single time we have a poor game/half. It really isn't the worst we've ever played.

[SuperDerbySuperRams]

Reminisant of Sheff U away last season. We did alright after that.

I’m not going OTT because we have half a side out, but that was appalling

Bryson cannot play this season, he’s nowhere near good enough at being the transition man, nowhere near

Said it for years. Bryson doesn’t get criticised by because of one game that was 4 and 1/2 years ago. Nowhere near good enough. Hasn’t been good enough for ages and the statistics showed that he played more backwards and sideways passes than ‘backwards Butterfield’. 

[JuanFloEvraTheCocu'sNesta]

I can take losing games, it happens. What I want to see is lessons being learned and improvement where it can be made. Lampard needs to show us thst he can figure out solutions to the obvious problems on the pitch.

No need to start calling for his head and writing off a whole season yet.

Close though.

[lukedcfc]

if we continiue to play from the back, with this midfield, we will ship goals. Man City etc have world class midfielders, we dont, not even close. Time to get back to basics, starting in the second half of this game. 

[Gritstone Ram]

We are set up as though we have got two world class centre halves problem is we haven’t got anything like that.

Derby 70% possession  -  means nothing !!
