Think City got about 2.3 million for him at tribunal, can he break into Chelski s first team ? I actually thought this was the possible last loan signing Frank alluded to before the window closed. That said, I think Tomori would make a cracking CDM if Curtis and Tricky end up being favoured at CB as I can't see Huddz playing every game.

Said on Sky that we tried to get him on a season loan, but Chelsea wouldn't play ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Sagan Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 England U21 are 0-0 with the Dutch after 75 minutes, but have now made all their subs so Mason's not getting on for his debut. If you missed it earlier, there are only 7 named subs and Tomori didn't make the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hintonsboots Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Like the look of Tom Lawrence oozing confidence, got to be worth at least 12m on current form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really haven't been Lawrence's biggest fan, but was just about to say how very impressive he's looked tonight. Then he just saw the net bulge in his head and managed a complete airshot in his excitement(!), but nonetheless it's been a very good performance. And though it seems easy for Wales, that's partly due to Tom taking his chance and bagging the crucial first goal to open the game up. Well played young man.

hintonsboots Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 If Grealish is being valued at 30 million what should Tom’s valuation be ? Surely Brucie maybe interested if he reads this forum. Lawrence has far more style also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair play to him.... There was stats put out by Derbyshire live that only Bannan from Sheff wed had made more passes in the Championship.

It's a stat shows that Keogh can pass which is where this micro-debate began. I'd say from his perspective it's absolutely something to be proud of, whilst also acknowledging your point that it would have been better from a team perspective if it were one of the midfielders. It was not his fault that to all intents and purposes, we played without a midfield for large chunks of last season. The fact remains, however, that the recent resurgence of Keogh bashers on the forum look as daft as they ever did given his recent performances. Form is temporary etc, etc....

Onomah starts ahead of him and Tom davies of Everton which I find quite strange. Tomori not in 18 man squad for game. Better for us I guess, playing less games, though I would've liked to see them play Let's hope Tomori isn't injured? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePrisoner Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Anyway, Lawrence looked good last night. Sky said he was a bit restricted last season under Rowett and would come more into his own this season playing more fluidly under Lampard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozza Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 It was very refreshing to see a current Derby player putting in an arguably 'man of the performance', in what was a very entertaining game, long may it continue. Well played Tom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbo jones Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Lawrence played well last night in what was a talented and fluid front 3, Bale obviously, but the lad Brooks looked good too. it all depends on what you want your front 3 to do. If you want the wide players to beat players and get crosses in, Lawrence isn’t the man for the job. He’s good work mostly happens through the middle. He probably doesn’t have the all round game to start as the number 9, but it’s something that could be worked on as a possible long term replacement for Nugent.

Yes, but somebody's got to pass it to Huddlestone! On topic, Ireland might have defended a bit better with Keogh in their side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SaintRam Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 No poll on twitter with Mount in it will avoid getting hijacked by Chelsea fans. Obviously, in this poll that fact less relevant because he has probably been our best player, but it makes most polls with him involved pretty pointless.
