There was also this on the EFL twitter account. 

 

Despite us being heavily involved in the promotion race for at least half of the decade, there's not one Derby player to choose from (aside from journeyman Ince, but he's probably on there from his Blackpool years). Not sure what to make of that.

Carson

Wisdom - Keogh - Buxton - Forsyth

Hughes - Hendrick - Bryson

Ince - Martin - Russell

 

We've had some top players who were only here for a short period of time or only really shined during 1 of the few seasons they were here. The team above is what I'd pick as our most consistent bunch of players during this decade, but the team below is the players who probably had the best individual season during their peak/only season for us.

Carson

Bogle - Keogh - Tomori - Forsyth

Hughes - Mount - Bryson

Wilson - Vydra

Martin

Honorable mentions for Thorne, Eustace, Dawkins, Ward, Christie, Bent, Baird, Johnson, Davies and Huddlestone who have been decent but didn't make either team. We've had our fair share of talented players over recent years, which makes it even more sad we've not been promoted with any of these players.

The BBC one has a couple - Keogh, Martin, Vydra, Nugent, Ince (plus a couple of others I don't count like Bamford and Ayala)

Interestingly the BBC article points out that of the players they shortlisted Keogh has the most championship appearances of the lot this decade

I haven't been huge fan of our fullbacks this decade so I'll go with classical 3-3-3-1 (Hiddink and South Korea 2002, anyone?) to get more fave players in. Also had to shoehorn Wilson to right as Ince has to be in the team as well.

                       Carson

      Barker        Bucko       Tomori

                        Eustace  

               Hughes     Bryson       

       Ince         Mount      Wilson           

                        Martin

This is quite difficult to do so I’m gonna do a simple 442 that if we wanted to put together a side that could have achieved promotion.

                    Grant

Wisdom Keogh Buxton Forsyth

Coutts Eustace Hendrick Wilson

               Martin Hulse

Subs: Butland, Brayford, Tomori, Hughes, Bryson, Mount,...Marriott?

In the injury room: Thorne, Addison, Commons, Barker, Bennett

Left-back is a tough one.  This has been by far our weakest link throughout the decade.

Id probably change Eustace for Vydra & Bucko for Keogh & that would be my very open & attacking team
