v Manchester United (a) Match tHread

[Kernow]

The goal aside, I actually think we've been the better, more positive side so far tonight.

Room for improvement at both ends of the pitch - that's why we're in the Championship - but in terms of general play, movement and approach, I think we're having a great game.

What a game Bryson is having, absolute pest.

I can’t believe that we look the better team. How far we’ve come from last season.

.....in only 9 or 10 games!

Fabulous pressing and some direct and inventive forward play. Disappointed the defence seem nervous - all accept Tomori including the keeper. Sure Carson will be very disappointed with himself not to have saved the goal - he'd normally keep those out. 

For those not watching, we're extremely impressive but with a soft and vulnerable underbelly. Here are the stats so far.

Running through our worst record because your out of things to say..........top work mate!

Great summing up @Carl Sagan. 

[Kernow]

Sky have just put up a graphic showing the players with the most passes in the opposition's half and four of the five are Derby players, with Ashley Young in 4th breaking them up.

Stats often don't mean an awful lot, and neither does this one, but I just thought it's a nice way to see a contrast to last season where we might have only had four or five passes in the opposition half in total.

People are saying nice things about us on the BBC

Fantastic first half from Derby, 10 out of 10 performance. More of the same please, lads..

 

[Ramarena]

Jones with a right swan dive

Why did lingard not get booked? 

[Millenniumram]

Dive by Jones there

No idea, different rules in Manchester?

[SaintRam]

Those slopes on the edge of the pitch seem a right hazard ? 

Been alright so far. Created more chances than I thought we would, although we're still struggling once Utd settle into their shape.

Bogle struggling with Martial, but that's not on him. Was always going to be the case.

Must be. 

[Steve How Hard?]

Feared for us conceding so early but what a great response. More of the same and we might just nick something here. 

[jimbo jones]

Would be nice if they’d take martial off....

[SillyBilly]

Really impressed by us tonight, if you get beat you want to do it playing football the right way and we're doing that. Chalk and cheese to Rowett ball. You can tell United have the quality on us but we're taking the game to them. Excellent stuff.

[Lambface]

Great to watch. Completely different mentality than last time we played them under rowett. Bodes well for the rest of the season.
