Pre Season Friendly v Burton Albion (A)

[SaintRam]

Powerful cross from Malone cleared by Buxton, corner, cleared.

[Rampage]

Where are the Chuckle brothers when you need them?

[SaintRam]

Huddlestone chips a ball over the Burton defense wonderfully to Lawrence, who loses the ball slightly in the sun and can't connect with his shot.

[Rampage]

This team is close to Cocu's first team, barring new signings.

Aye, Marriott for Bennett and Martin will be Waghorn's backup perhaps.

I'm curious where the signings will come other than CB and GK, which I expect - even though Evans is doing well we're still very light at CB, and GK seems a really weak link for us.

Shinnie? Holmes?

Is Mason Bennett playing as a CM right now?

[SaintRam]

Keogh just lost the ball in the Burton half, but not too worry, Lawrence won the ball back at the halfway line.

Meanwhile however, Knight had sprinted back to fill in for Keogh at CB, and was back in the no.10 position moments after Derby had possession back. That was really impressive.

Right now, he seems to be. But everyone in front of Huddlestone seem to be really fluid. Everyone's constantly in different positions. 

[Rampage]

How very uncrab like are The Rams

The energy and desire to get the ball back in a preseason game like this was very impressive, our players were really busting a gut to get back and win it back.

He's not travelled due to family reasons, B4. 

Probably someone in his family is unwell or something like that.

His mrs is pregnant so more then likely something to do with that

Yes its great they have come out of their shell.

[Rampage]

Massive goalkeeper to dominate the box please. Two of would not go amiss.

[SaintRam]

Good play from Jozefzoon with support from Waghorn and Malone, the ball drops to Huddlestone but his shot from range is palmed over for a corner.

As usual, it is easily cleared.

[SaintRam]

Lots of Derby changes on the way.

Can we play 2 keepers in a game?

[Andicis]

Pretty much a whole team change coming.

The rest of the bench is about to come on
