Nevermind mate. #weareallDerby What irks me is the quick judgments, not giving managers or players any time before writing them off. This was just over 2 weeks ago.

I'm not passionless at all, but this was after our second game under Rooney. Talk about overreaction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowett: top 6 from December onwards, fans from February - Rowett out hes boring Wassall: 1 bad game against Rotherham: fans - Someone “experienced” in please Cocu: 64 points from the squad he inherited last season - Cocu out we need a better coach. Rooney: 3 goals, 1 win in 7 games, Including Coventry and Wycombe at home.... fans: we look improved, more dangerous, believe in Rooney..... I have never seen the bar set so low for someone to succeed at Derby for a long time. If we talk about fickle and rank it - Derby fans must be contenders every season for the top 2 (hands up I admit I have been). Can someone tell me why the bar is so low for Rooney but higher for everyone else in terms of success? The bar is low, but with no losses and the Swansea game today, need I say more?

Been waiting for Cocu to get sacked for what seemed like ages, sometimes it all gets too much! I've been pro-Rooney all the way. He's a footballing man, but more. I think he'll be a better manager than Lampard and if we don't sign him soon someone else will. Plus if he does well we'll be fighting off Manure soon too!

Jimbo Ram Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 I think Wazza deserves a lot of credit, I am warming to him. I quite like his tv interviews too, nice way about him... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus if he does well we'll be fighting off Manure soon too! If we're in a position where United are calling for Rooney, it would suggest he's been doing a decent job for us. Said it so many times now, but I would always be worried if a manager had no ambition, saw Derby County in the Championship as the pinnacle of their career. I don't know the guy, but I would imagine Rooney has his sights set a lot higher, and if this proves to be a 18 month relationship, I'm fine with that. Considering the average tenure of a Championship manager, to demand any kind of loyalty would be foolish. For what it's worth, I don't see United rushing to appoint another ex player with little experience, would imagine Ole will be gone in the summer if not sooner and they will go for someone like Poch or another big name.

desirelines Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Next six games are massive. Got a huge chance to grab some points and climb out of the mess. But will we?

Pearl Ram Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Well, I’m more optimistic than I was 6 weeks ago. I’d like us to batter Chorley just for self respect reasons but a cup run isn’t high on my list of priorities. I believe we will be clear of the bottom 3 by the time we play Rotherham at home. ?

BramcoteRam84 Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 I think Rooney has to be given the job now. 6 games unbeaten, limited 3 teams in the top 6 to 1 shot on target in 3 games, 4 clean sheets in a row and tonight against a team that could go top against the highly rated Steve Cooper, and he tactically outdid him. Ever since he’s come in there has been a difference. The players are far more positive in their play in and out of possession. When we’re defending we attack the ball. A performance and result like tonight has been coming. If this had been Allardyce, or Cooper or any manager we had brought in we would be lauding him. Rooney deserves huge credit, the players are playing for him and I think it would be unfair not to give him the job now. Im sold! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramit Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Is it the Mac effect, or is Rooney showing some promise as a manager at this level? A bit of both perhaps? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Tram Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 His interviews, and our observations of what we're seeing is all consistent. He has improved levels of confidence, and promotes simple football - meaning football that the players understand. Rooney will face challenges as time passes - and we may have to weather some dips in performance. But, for me, he has been spot on in identifying and delivering what the players have needed so far. And if he manages do that at the next stage of the team's development, and continues to do so, to what now could we hope for? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boycie Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Mac is in the ear of the u23 coach Justin. He relays the voice from above. Now wether Wazza listens toit is debatable. But Wayne can’t be knocked so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramsbottom Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 I’ll hold my hands up, I didn’t think he’d be any good, but fair do’s, he’s instilled some belief and has us going in the right direction. Get a result on Saturday, and I’ll be even more in his camp. One thing that is noticeable is that his interviews are a lot better. Not sure if it’s the fact the press are asking real questions instead of the same old cliched dross, but he speaks with a lot more authority, and clarity than when he was a player...
