Was given a £5 free bet and wondered what to do with it. Decided to put it on this. Pink strip every week from now on. Very solid performance. Deserved a little slice of luck. The season starts now!

Ramarena Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Well it looks like Cocu got the result he was looking for and I don’t just mean on the pitch. The players played with spirit and passion and followed instructions well! This is the reaction many of us were hoping for, despite concerns it could go the other way. Top performances from Marshall, davies and Knight. Everyone else had a role to play and did it well. This is a good base to build from now. With Lawrence, Beilik, Waghorn, Ibe, Sibley and Bird to be bought back in with a new signing we can really push on from here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FindernRam Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Whilst much of the game was pretty forgettable the thing I noticed was how much more we tried to play forward rather than sideways or backward. Jozwiak in particular always looked to turn and carry forward. Like him already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CBRammette Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 With the difference in attitude wouldnt have minded losing to a better side but well done to everyone involved. Turn of Whittaker, Knight and Buchanan to get youth plaudits today. Glad it is spread about as too much pressure if all on one youngster. Kit looked so much better live on the pitch than on the PR stuff this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaftesbury Street Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Notice how we had bugger all possession? The complete opposite to the other three games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfie20 Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 It's only 3 points, takes us up to the lofty heights of 18th (albeit for a couple of hours) but could prove to be a huge win in our season for a number of reasons. We are off the mark points-wise. First clean sheet of the season. For a change we go into an international break on the back of a positive result, giving Cocu 2 clear weeks to further integrate the new players into how he wants them to play. The transfer window remains open, potentially for another 2 weeks so there may be further additions to improve the squad. Jason Knight confirmed he is good enough to be given a regular start as a central midfielder in our team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rampage Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Question - how did Cocu manage to get such a change of attitude, determination and desire after last week. Answer - Ruthless dropping of players. Work hard for 95 minutes or sit on the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topram Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 Well it wasn’t normal Derby that but Cocu got it spot on, after the thrashing we took last week today was all about a result no matter how we played, we dug in got our luck at times but deserved it, first half was mainly all them but created little against a solid back line. Marshall- brilliant Bryne- brilliant looks a great signing Davies- old school solid definitely offers us something Evans- be disappointed with the pen but he always does a job and his passing out from the back is second to none Clarke- solid Buchanan- grew into the game against very difficult opposition Shinnie- determined solid as always Knight- class so much better in the middle Holmes- did ok not 100% fit Rooney- forget the 87 minutes all about the free kick Jozwaik- nice few runs growing into the side big important win especially with the run we’ve got coming up!

So interesting to see how the game has changed and become more professional. As well as synchronized wall jumping nowadays, many teams have an extra player who lies on the ground behind the wall to stop the shot going underneath. Set pieces can make or break a season and I hope it's an area we work on relentlessly, both offensively and defensively. Great to score from one today. I don't think I'll ever see someone as good at striking a freekick as Harry Wilson, but it was a very good strike from Rooney to bag the 3 points.

EraniosSocks Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 #Derby are the first team to stop #Norwich scoring in a home @SkyBetChamp games since Oct 2018. #NCFC had scored 46 goals in previous 18 @SkyBetChamp games at Carrow Road. This was David Marshall’s 1st clean-sheet for #DCFC & 11th in his last 17 lge apps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed........hard work and effectiveness in your designated role. There will be quality chomping at the bit to be back involved after the international break!

Andicis Posted October 3, 2020 Share Posted October 3, 2020 I think Knight looked really good in the middle. He worked really hard, and earned us the freekick that won us the game. He deserves to keep his spot in the middle of the pitch in my opinion. Curtis Davies was a man mountain, Marshall made some great saves. We rode our luck a bit, but it was a tremendous result.
