Jayram Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 4 minutes ago, Dean Saunder’s hat trick said: That we finished top 10 and had a decent shot of the playoffs with a few games to go whilst fielding 5 or so academy players most of the time? And I think you’ll find Bielik missed the majority of the season? Sibley only came to the fore in the latter half and none of them were all available at the same time so I’m not quite sure what you’re getting at? But yea, actually your probably right Derby = poo, Cocu = poo, everything poo. Sack the the lot of them I say. No not the lot of them, just the one who picks the tactics and the team and replace him with someone who understands that attack is the best form of defence. All three home league games lost, 4 defeats in first 5 matches, 2 goals in 5 games. But hey, let’s keep making excuses for Mr Cocu. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst the other half weren’t playing? Ultimately it doesn’t really matter who we play - we simply dont look like scoring. So what’s your answer. Maybe you should appoint the next Derby Manager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marriott can't score for toffee in our current set up. He isn’t the only player to score a goal from open play in the league this season then? Must be my mistake.

Andicis Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 I think Lee Buchanan is getting better and better in that LWB position. He's learning more defensively all the time and offers a fair amount going the other way too. Really happy with how he's progressing this season.

His work with the academy has been fantastic and I'm grateful for that, but lately is seems every week there's news about loans being taken out, other ways of creative accounting to meet FFP limits, rumoured low transfers fees etc. Despite that, I just don't see Cocu as the manager to get the best out of this team. He's certainly had plenty of things against him, car crash, FFP embargoes, injuries etc, but for me he's not the right man to improve this team unfortunately.

RadioactiveWaste Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 So much is hanging on players getting fit or returning from injury. Particually Waghorn as he's the only one capable of being the 9 we need. Rooney can't do it anymore and none of the other attackers can play that role. I'm pretty untroubled by it all TBH. We'll get better when the better players are fit. The team is trying. There will be worse teams than us in the division and we'll win enough matches to be an unremarkable dull but worthy team who finishes in the middle. No drama about things falling apart, no excitment or dreaming of going up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cam the Ram Posted October 16, 2020 Share Posted October 16, 2020 7 minutes ago, sage said: Is the squad of players he had available to start today an improvement on last year? No, but curtains said the expectations was to avoid relegation this season. He won't be limited to today's team for every game this season and if the best we can hope for is avoiding relegation then that's quite worrying.

If not please elaborate who is The finance & recruitment people, the EFL & our need to meet FFP requirements Cocu made it clear that if he had his way Martin wouldn't have left Marriott maybe he's not too bothered about, and nor am I Stating as fact that 'cocu let Martin go' is complete toss and a false representation the situation.

Hopefully he's our long term answer to the LB/LWB position, it's one we've never really been settled on for a number of seasons. Seems like he's making the position his own.

Well he does look a bit low on confidence at the moment . It’s tough for him at the moment The Rooney / Gregory story really didn’t help and for me the writing is probably now on the wall.
