Carson wouldn't have been able to play that way in the first half, regardless of shot stopping, Roos was good in his passing, he received the ball to his feet a lot and was passing it around often. 

Yes Roos is good with his feet, but his goalkeeping is poor, and he does not fill the defenders with confidence, Carson good goal keeper, but not the best with the ball at his feet, may be time for a new keeper who can do both, I am sure Coku knows where we need to strengthen.

BENNETT!

[Millenniumram]

Great move sees waghorn unselfishly set up Bennett to get him a goal. Good finish too

[Andicis]

Wonderful ball from Malone, squared from Waggy, smashed into the roof of the net by Bennett. Sliced Burton apart again. Brilliant Derby.

[SaintRam]

Waghorn with a great cross to Bennett, who literally can't miss.

Although with the ball's trajectory I'm curious how far out he'd need to be for that to have missed, I reckon not far ? 

 

Good goal though. Well worked, well finished.

Love Mason Bennett to bits, could shine under a manager like Coku, to learn him when and when not to put the burners on.

Can't agree with the Huddlestone part. I think he's been the key man in this whole system so far and there's no one in the squad who can do the job as well as him. Sure there's question marks surrounding his mobility, especially when defending, but no one can match his ability to get us going forward with a quick pass around the corner whilst under pressure, which has led to many of our attacks starting today

Seeing as I'm only questioning his mobility, it looks like we actually do agree!

I don't doubt his ability to get us going forward. In fact I agree with you.

Aren't we trying for Watford's backup keeper? 

[SaintRam]

Huddlestone puts Waghorn in behind, well defended for a Derby corner, which nothing comes of.

I think the energy in our attacking players tracking back, and the numbers they come back in, has been noticeable in that its resulted in reducing the amount of running Huddz has had to do. Could be by design specifically to protect Huddz from getting isolated and left for dead.

Anyone who says that Huddlestone is a weak link has lost it.

[Andicis]

4-2, Malone with a bad touch, got dispossessed, and Burton play it inside a finish really well

[Millenniumram]

Full back issue exposed again there, we still seem to get done too easy from wide areas. Problem carried over from last year  for Cocu to resolve 

[SaintRam]

2-4, decent finish from Burton. Nowt particularly untoward from us. We lost the ball further up the field, happens.

[Derby blood]

Could score a hat full at this rate, Waghorn playing the number 9 roll in perfect fashion, think Martin will make an appearance with 15 mins left.

[Ruud Aralliss]

Malone ? liability can’t lose the ball there son. Goal down to him really

[RamsFan10]

On a side note, who else prefers the all white strip?

[B4ev6is]

See my man Mason Bennett going to be goal machine.

He’s also the key to why we are looking all at sea as soon as they win it and move forward.
