v Scunthorpe (A) Carabao Cup - Match Thread

[Shang]

Bieliks rises above everyone else in the box when the corner comes in but heads it way wide.

[SaintRam]

The only really disappointing thing about Lowe being at RB is when he finds space alongside the box he has to cross with his right foot.
 

Lowe is SUCH a good crosser of the ball... with his left.

 

Shinnie's corner is the best delivery of a corner I've seen (by Derby) in about 5 seasons, but Bielik is just underneath it. 

[Ramarena]

Shinnie needs to be on corner duty!

nice delivery

If we can get a decent delivery into the oppositions box then Beilik could be a big threat this season 

We could be a Threat from the corners at last

You know you can watch it in the Netherlands this year - its a much shorter "flight" than Morocco.

I could only get tickets for Bien4 Airways.  There's not a lot of choice with destinations from EMA, so I took a chance!

[Shang]

Knight with a good effort on target forcing the ball out for a corner. Which is taken way too quickly. Should have waited for Bielik to set up in the box!

[SaintRam]

Knight with a decent shot, well saved. 

Ball goes back to Derby on the left wing, but they cant create a second opportunity. @Shang did it go for a corner? Didnt think it had.

Bird seems to be dropping back as a third centre back as Davies and Bielik press up as when we've got the ball we're pretty much on the half way line. Sibleys game is bursting forward and driving the ball towards the goal, so we'd be left more exposed.

Different positions. Sibley is basically competing with Knight

I get that Bird can play deeper, just thought that we could play Sibley and Knight further forward with Shinnie dropping back if Sibley was better regarded. Obviously the massive caveat is that I don't see them training everyday. 

[Ramarena]

Decent effort from knight stemmed from a Keogh-esq run from Beilik

Lads... whilst I also want Lowe to be a success .... he really isn't competent at RB.

I disagree, he gives a lot of energy pushing forward and has looked one of our better players. Very similar to Bogle and would of course be much better on the left.

Has the beating of his man comfortably too.

All the academy lads are looking good.

[SaintRam]

Wonderful play. Shinnie lifts it over to Bennett, through on goal 6 yards out, who for some reason doesn't shoot, tries to square it to Marriott who is smothered by defenders and cant get there.

[Ghost of Clough]

Why didn’t Bennett shoot? ?

To be fair I'm watching an extremely blurry stream.

[Ramarena]

Bennett should have taken that instead of squaring it.

Great pass from shinnie

That’s the best comment I have read all night ! ( Shinnie and corners)

[SaintRam]

Very cheeky no-look pass from Lowe puts Paterson in the box, who runs and gets a shot on goal but its saved.

He should have shot... Bennett doesn't look like hes a happy man 

[Ramarena]

That cross field pass from beilik ?

[Shang]

We're having more chances on goal in the last few minutes, the break is probably coming at the wrong time!
