Football moves so fast. I said this.last week. went down like a lead balloon. Mobile, technical, team player, extremely hard working absolute minimum for Cocu.

Cocu expects a great deal and he will get it. Grest work ethic is needed to match Leeds. Light years from Rowettball. Ion drive is go. Mel seen wearing underpants on outside of trousers flying at 50,000 feet above Chaddo this morning. He suits that Cape with Lampard, Cocu and Rooney written on the back. What a guy.

MackworthRamIsGod Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 I had a thought last week wether Cocu thinks he is good enough. He could end up going out on loan if not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 He will play a large part in our season I believe and competition for places is vital Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gccrowdpleaser Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 He's missed a decent chunk of pre season with a slight knock in the UD and then his wife having a baby. Cocu is being careful. Haven't seen enough of him to know but if, when fit, he doesn't have a role to play in central midfield then he definitely does have one to play at left back.

Srg Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Think we might be reading a little too much into a late substitution in the first game of the season. Why not applaud Jason Knight instead? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harrowram Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 Derby will play fifty plus games the season. With injuries and suspensions Shinnie is bound to play a part as the squad isn't very big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wraggrams Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 I think it was more about giving Knight his debut, than a reflection on Shinnie. I wonder whether he could be an upgrade on Malone at LB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've seen in pre-season Cocu wants to rotate players - We have a decent and deep squad Before last night I would have said Evans was solidly a backup choice but he played really well - But will be nice to have a couple of players for each role who are equally challenging and can both do the role well Think we'll see some proper squad rotation this season - Last year there were definitely times when a 3 game week took it's toll on the players whereas now I think we have a couple of options for every position and a style of play which is fluid and organised Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Millenniumram Posted August 6, 2019 Share Posted August 6, 2019 That must’ve been painful for him. I always thought he was brought in as competition for places and to come off the bench rather than start- but seeing the game yesterday seemed exactly the time for him to come off the bench. I don’t think cocu rates him at all, and he had a poor pre season to boot so hardly shone to change his mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
