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

Slow ball out wide by Huddlestone. The gap behind Malone not covered and then the massive gap in midfield exploited. 

[Srg]

Jozefzoon looking much better just letting the game come to him and not forcing something every time he touches it. Massive advantage of having extended playing time. 

[RamsFan10]

Hope Lowe and Sibley get some minutes

[SaintRam]

Probably about see a surge of changes in 4 minutes as the hour creeps up

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

Huddlestone's po retry much taking the Leila today. Different class. Dowell looks an accomplished footballer. Cannot wait for new signings to arrive. New goalkeeper please.

[SaintRam]

First look at a Dowell FK? 30 yards or so out.

Lawrence could though.

[Rampage]

Pretty much taking the peola, Hudds is.

Just hit it at Bywater. Solid tactic to be fair. 

[SaintRam]

Lawrence's FK is dealt with horrendously by Bywater, and Bennett MISSES THE TARGET from 5 yards out in a fairly central position.

[Andicis]

Would like to see Martin and Sibley for Derby.

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

He may be apart of the reason, but I don't personally believe he's the key to it. The goals came from poor defending at a corner and Malone taking a poor touch to give the ball away leaving them free to run down our left and cross it. So neither of them were really Huddlestone's fault and I can't think of any occasion where Huddlestone has just been left stranded as Burton players breeze past him

[Ruud Aralliss]

Another open goal for Bennett missed from 5 yards ?

[Andicis]

Beautiful move from Derby there, real shame the last ball from Lawrence a tad over hit, the build up was really good between Waghorn, Bennett and Lawrence.

[SaintRam]

A total of 2 backheels in the Derby counterattack from a Burton corner, but Lawrence's curled switch just evades Jozefzoon.

Change for Derby. Dowell off, Knight on. 

GO KNIGHT GO

[RamLad1884]

Love our Mason to bits, but my god his finishing is awful sometimes ? if he can finish the simple setups instead of panicking he'll easily reach double figures this season. 

Nice to see a Waghorn/Bennett link up to rival Martin/Marriott 

[Ghost of Clough]

Knight on for Dowell

[Rampage]

Two back heel passes in one game by Rams

[Ruud Aralliss]

 Dowell. Looks promising 

[Rampage]

Knight on. The message is clear. Next Bogle?

[Andicis]

Cocu seems to like Jason Knight, he's played a lot in preseason. Hopefully his break through season.
