I thought that they all looked fitter and sharper than previous games (down to number of matches played?). I'd hope that they are at least training with the first team squad now?

Coneheadjohn Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 That was a nice goal. Orchestrated by Thorne,nice play by Elsnik,good/clever movement from Wardrobe and a nice finish. Really made me happy watching that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These appear to have been filmed after Evans' injury on Tuesday night. So, it doesn't look promising for a return for any of the players barring a major injury crisis. ? I hope I'm wrong.

Just listened to Wassall after the game, he pretty much said the same on fitness and contributing more; first and foremost praised their attitude! No doubt in my mind Thorne and Martin want to play for Derby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After watching them I can't see how they've not got a part to play, even Anya if we get curse of the left-back again. Why wouldn't FL play Martin and Thorne? Thought MacDonald, Bateman, Gordon and Guy looked good too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing against you jimbo but I dislike the phrase ‘enforcer’ I think very good footballer covers it fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
