Yes there is plenty of promise, but as of now we are a half complete car that needs fixing. So why not say we might have a bit of cash coming our way which we'll probably spend on a few new car parts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImARam2 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Cocu has begun to strengthened the 'spine' of the team, with a decent, Championship goalkeeper, two very reliable central defenders - De Wierk & Clarke, and a midfield of Rooney, and Bielk, along with 'runners' of Bird, Sibley and either Shinnie (who is a very solid player, who's not afraid to get stuck in), or Holmes. Undoubtedly, the attack is the weakest positions, and Derby need a good centre-forward and a right-sided winger, which I believe will arrive this week. We will also see a couple of players leave before the transfer, and probably another of the yongsters who have played in the 1st XI. Possession football can look boring, however, look at many premier teams, and they play the same. The only difference is when they get the opportunity, they move it forward very quickly and that's where Derby haven't got the players or experience to take advantage.

The team isn't bad but the best team in years seamed a bit strong to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoyMac5 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Although we're selling two young stars in Bogle & Lowe. Cocu is showing that if you're a good young player there's a way to the Prem for you, even if not with us! That's important for future recruitment I reckon.

Probably is some truth in that, we just look so half baked as a team. We've played some nice stuff at times but never been able to do it consistently for a full 90 minutes. Maybe it will only take a few players to get it clicking. Hopefully that is the case and it's not a deeper issue with the system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can I my brown nose award now @David To be honest there are very few forum software options out there these days, IPS, Xenforo and vBulletin are the main paid 3, then you have PHPBB, SMF that are the free options. Owlstalk, OTIB, Foxestalk for example all use the same software as this board, we just all apply our team colours over the top and use set them up in our own way and have our own rules. Appreciate the words though, 11 years and still going suggests we must be doing something right despite the odd grumble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
