TramRam Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 36 minutes ago, Spanish said: thought it was a bit harsh from the replay I saw. looked like a poor effort at a headbutt that I could not even work out how close or not it was to Huddz, 2 bookings definitely sending off only if a better camera angle shows clear intent. Clear intent was Milivojevic's head moving forward to Huddlestones mush, Any road, Huddlestone would have won that argument by a KO ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost of Clough Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 I felt Whittaker did quite well with linking play up on the right and helping Bogle out defensively. I think he’ll be in and around the squad for the rest of the season. Then depending on how he progresses, either remaining part of the squad next season or a loan out to ‘toughen him up’.

Rammed79 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Thought Martin had a good game today I always feel confident we'll create more with him up top. Really pleased for Sibley also let's hope he can build on this . Were going all the way this year COYR! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
froggg Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Looks like we have turned a corner, hopefully we are the team that goes on a killer run of form till the end of the season. COYR ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ellafella Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 1 hour ago, DerbyRam! said: Interesting commentary during the game for those watching via ESPN+, possibly my memory is a little off. "Derby have not lost in the last 67 games where they have scored first" winning 42 games and drawing 15. Last time we lost when scoring first was in the 4-1 defeat at Bristol City in 2017(September?) Maybe one for the stat boffins, just wanted to share. It's actually quite a nice record ...probably just reflects that we don’t score first that often. ?

Rampage Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 I would like to pick the team for Boro. However, I would change it so many times that I will leave it to Cocu and Rooney. Yes I mean Cocu and Rooney, both world-beaters. U23s and U18s now convinced that there is room in the team. Likes of Lawrence, Bennett and a few others can take nothing whatsoever for granted now.

Archied Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Managed to watch it with Bulgarian commentary, my we played very well ,give cocu time and space as I see nothing much too wrong with what we are doing when you see flashes of good performance as the injuries lessen and Rooney now on the pitch today’s team selection and rotation kind of made me think our squad is looking decent with the youth comming through , a few key additions and who knows , good to see Derby with a bit of swagger and cocu smiling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comrade 86 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Thoughts on the game today FWIW... PLAYERS Roos - solid enough with a couple of smart saves - not given too much to do in truth Bogle - way sharper than of late - love this kid and hope we hang onto him for at least another season Davies - couple of early errors but solid thereafter Forsyth - same a Curtis really Malone - a better performance than of late, worked hard Huddlestone - imperious today - only Rooney can compare in terms of passing ability - the pair of them were given space and bossed the midfield as a consequence Rooney - the man's not human - he was everywhere today, up and down the pitch like a steroid crazed 19 yr old - different gravy and is clearly inspiring those around him to show what they can do too - captain my captain! Whittaker - struggled to make his mark today but the technique is there and like Bird, he can improve as his confidence grows - get him in the gym so he's not easy to bully and he's another bright young prospect to look forward to Sibley - a man's performance today - could almost see his confidence and influence growing as the game progressed - ran himself senseless and showed no fear at all - another star in the making in a team beginning to bristle with youthful talents Lawrence - less selfish than at times asked to play wider than he likes - no sulks or daft cards and worked tirelessly but ultimately without much end-product - can Wazza get inside his head? Martin - cometh the hour, cometh the man - a consummate pro who divides DCFC fan opinion but if he's past his best, he certainly doesn't know it - superbly taken goal SUBS Bird - worked hard to close out the game Holmes - see Bird Waghorn - lively and so unlucky not to grab a goal with his late curling effort ricocheting out of the inside of the post THE MANAGER Gently spoken and intelligent, Phil must be loving having the waspish Wazza on the pitch to reinforce what needs done and keep the lads on their mettle. Picked an interesting line-up which was fully vindicated by the performance and the result. The team now seems to be grasping what it is he is asking of them and whilst the naysayers have been keen to compare him to Rowett, I see no such comparisons. Pass and move is clearly the Cocu way and today it was a delight to watch, even before that Palace jessie got himself sent off. Best allround performance in some time IMO.

Goes to show people with spina bifida are winners Thanks for your pathetic feedback. Sorry it didn’t tickle your funnybone. The construct of the joke did not in any way mock people with spina bifida, nor, as your response implies, that I consider them to be ‘losers’.

Pass and move is clearly the Cocu way and today it was a delight to watch, even before that Palace jessie got himself sent off. Best allround performance in some time IMO. Pretty much spot on with all you said ? Rooney and Hudds in the middle were superb. Pulled the strings all game. Also had Malone putting some decent crosses in first half for the first time in a long time. Bogle was the Bogle of old as well. Great to see and maybe the break did him good. Exquisite cross for the goal. Just added some £££ to that price tag. Tough call on him and Wisdom for the next game. Sibley gives us a taste of what we can look forward to seeing he could be a great player for us! Exciting to see what he can do for the rest of the season. A textbook Martin finish and I just can’t get enough of seeing him in a Derby shirt. Will enjoy it while it lasts as it’s probably finally time for him and the club to move on at the end of the season. I will always love him Wayne Rooney! He is far from done, fitness levels incredible. Desire that of a player just bursting on the scene wanting to prove himself. His passing and ability to read the game is exceptional! How lucky we are to have him. A joy to watch in the black and white. What a guy. Fantastic team performance and brilliant turnout for the fans. A win on the road! The end is nigh!! ?? Up the beautiful Rams! ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that I saw that much of it. looked nicely in control first half, with palace somewhat passive. Second half was more difficult. Then I lost the stream, internet, the lot! Delighted for sibley. So many positives. just what we needed. Selection headache for our man now ? All of a sudden we are going to have a bench and a half to compliment the first eleven. ?

Comrade 86 Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 What could possibly improve beating a prem side in the cup in London. Ah!!!!!!!!! Some snippets from the Gumps match thread... 5 minutes until kick off, I'll get the lube... VAR today... will prove Grabban is never off side, and is always being fouled We need to focus on that centre half who played for Derby on loan last season - he looked very shaky. Get goal side of him and we can win this one! We've survived 5 minutes \0/ Edit: We've just conceded Hope we come back and nick a couple to wipe the smug look off their cockney faces To be fair at least we're in no danger of hearing the classic "you wouldn't know which is the Premier League team" baalocks Penalty!!!! I ducking hate this game Modern football is rubbish Right, I’m going to do something more productive with my afternoon now. Like watching paint dry or counting how many tic-tacs are in a box. Half an hour played and Chelsea are only 1 up?? They're poo! 2-0# Had to give up at this point as my sides were splitting and it was quite uncomfortable ?
