Another match, another inept derby performance. Is lampard learning or is he just clement mark 2 underestimating the basics of football because of his career at the top end? Same mistakes week in week out for me, pretty pathetic at the basics of passing and ball retention.

Plenty of ability in this team when they turn up, but that ain’t very often

I don't think its similar to Clement.

We've seen what Lampard's goal is in terms of system. We play it forwards on the ground with patience and create opportunities. We also know the players are capable of playing the system, Hull and WBA games show that. What we're dealing with is player inconsistency, because if the players suddenly can't play simple passes, and move properly, the system doesn't work.

With Clement, the system was to pass it around with zero aggression until an opportunity too obvious to turn down presented itself. Which happened incredibly rarely. The players could play Clement's system perfectly, and did so every game.

Ended up putting the cricket on half way through, what a game. 

Very similar to Wednesday night, sloppy and ill-prepared. 

Cant afford to have two centre mids who aren’t in the game. 

aaaand 2-0.

But I keep hearing by pundits about what "excellent, free-flowing football" we are playing. They've been guilty of overrating us and Lampard. 

We played better football last year, change my mind

[G-Ram]

Pathetic absolutley pathetic

21 games since Nugent scored? That's simply not good enough. I liked him when he first came him and his hattrick against Fulham made me like him even more but now he's absolutely finished. I really don't know what he does or how he contributes to the team.

He starts the bounce, big deal. I’m starting to get seriously worried about Frank making the same mistakes time and time again. This is a complete pile of absolute dog poo. Get it changed!!!!!

[Edtheram]

Huddlestone showing his crap side today as is Brysons 

[thelovebelow]

Huddlestone totally at fault 

[SaintRam]

Reaction time again for the second goal. The shot hits the post and no defenders even consider moving towards it before Brighton have closed on it and scored.

[NottsRam77]

Utter crap 

oh well concentrate on the league 

feel sorry for the fans that have made the long journey down to watch this rubbish 

[sawley_ram]

Can’t see us turning this around one bit. Let’s look on to next Wednesday. 

[Parsnip]

Isn't this what always happens? We go 2-0 down then pull it back to 2-2 then win on pens.

Scripted.

[Chilwellram]

This is absolutely fxxxxxg sxxt Derby !

[cosmic]

Funny, everyone wanted Huddlestone to start. ?

[MackworthRamIsGod]

What a dreadful week of football.

Absolutely balls up the game against Ipswich and then this truly dreadful display, nothing short of woeful.

Rowett, Clough, Clement, McLaren 1, McLaren 2 were all sacked for less than this.

Look on the bright side at 2-0 down that's when we normally wake up and start playing

[GrimsbyRam]

I for one are glad we are going out of this tie.  We need to re-group for the league.  Easy goal for first, Bogle not tracking back and Huddlestone losing ball needlessly which lead to pressure for second

[Marriot Ram99]

Well that was  worth throwing away 2 points away on Wednesday night by resting Huddlestone and Bryson wasn't it?
