Chelsea's movement at the front is incredible. Can we just agree on that before we hammer the backline who contribute to our superb attacks

Tbf that third goal was excellent, tho after a blatant foul. Can’t excuse some of that defending tho. We ain’t expecting Maldini but you’ve gotta be able to do the basics. You can’t be having to score 5 goals every game to win a match, it won’t happen no matter how superb your attack is. Gotta stop shooting oursleves in the foot by conceding the first goal so often as well. Would make life much easier.

Think we are fast becoming every footy fan's 2nd favourite team. There'll be a few tasty recruits looking to join us in January, that is if we even need the buggers. Can't remember when it was last so much fun being a Rams fan. COYR

Dead right. I have grumped in recent years .. always last on the list of newspaper reports, seen as also rans with a bit of ancient history and some fans; but as far as journalists were concerned we were just fodder ... not any more Aries rising ! COYR

These scored 4 against Burnley. A burnley team renowned for their solid defence. We haven't conceded more than 1 since Man U, and Millwall before that, we're not exactly shipping 4 every game.

If Curtis is fit Keogh shouldnt be any where near a starter....sorry just my opinion

You keep posting tripe but yes, it's only your opinion  - not any other Derby managers' in the last 6 years. Do you take pleasure in slating Keogh at every opportunity?

There is no way we'd be able to keep pace with all of their movement without sacrificing our own game and sitting deep no matter whether it's Davies, Forsyth, Wisdom...

They run right along the face of them. There's nothing we can do other than get more men back.

Better to just keep biting away. We've done well and it's the right message. And it's 3-2!!

Very impressed with the lads. For the first time in a long while, I really feel that we have the consistent genuine essence of a Premiership side. We are playing tough opponents at their own ground and we're genuinely a real threat to them... apart from being too courteous and giving them a few free goals...

To me Birmingham and the league are more important as we need to focus on getting back up to the top flight, but as a show of talent and ability tonight has so far been good. Impressed with all.
