v Scunthorpe (A) Carabao Cup - Match Thread

[SaintRam]

Scunthorpe striker advances into the Derby box, shielded well by Davies who goes to ground, but Novak turns away and clips it back in. Cleared by Buchanan & Paterson. 

[SaintRam]

Shinnie, Paterson and Buchanan almost walk through the Scunthorpe defense between them, but the door gets shut at the final stage.

@Mrs Coneis at it again,watching Salford v Leeds.

So,do all Salford’s players have to come from Salford.

Some poor bugger has to I suppose, might as well force them to play rugby league just to rub it in.

So far Derby look like they've not played together much, Scunny look like a team with no confidence but a bit of determination. So as you'd expect really. Nil nil.

The person asking for commentary in English just put radio Derby on. It won't sync up with what's going on, but radio Derby never really does.

Max Lowe really struggling out at RB.

[SaintRam]

Bielik recieves a yellow card, slightly naughty challenge.

@Nick_Ram defensively definitely, but going forward hes been a decent outlet so far. His crosses have been decent but well defended.

[Shang]

Knight looks like he's been playing at this level for a while. Max Lowe looks competent at right back, bursting forwards a lot on the outside. Buchanan seems to be running on the inside of the winger.

Bonecrusher Bielik

[Ramarena]

Beilik booked, he looks rusty and keen to impress, but definitely trying to be positive and break forward when he can

Alright lads, which one is it ? Struggling or competent ?

[brady1993]

One thing I like is how it seems every time we stop Cocu is having a word with one of the young players as to what he wants to see.

He's not a long-term solution for RB cover that's for sure. Thought we were much worse on Saturday when he came on and he's not offered anything of value so far. Not his fault mind, he's just not a RB.

Off the pace is how I'd describe him so far.

I think you can see why he's been held back a little bit. Doesn't look 100% yet.

[SaintRam]

Novak replaced by someone the commentator describes as "capable of being a match winner". Hammill.

By competent you mean given the ball away 3-4 times and a few needless fouls? Not sure what positive play you have seen....
