Stretton looks the part at under-23 level but has generally looked out of his depth when promoted to the first team. I think that probably why he's been stepped down again. I agree he might benefit playing in a pair up front with an experienced striker like CKR, but not convinced at this stage Stretton is going to make the grade at Derby.

I think Stretton needs a confidence boost at first team level, preferably a couple of goals and a run of games. Sadly, despite looking the part at U23 and U18 level he appears to be struggling at senior level. Of course, we need to remember he’s a second year pro and is probably where he is (fringe first team) a season or two earlier than he normally would be.

It’s a shame that one that hid the woodwork for the first team last season didn’t go in.

I have been impressed by Thompson and Dixon in midfield. 

If we had to offload a couple I would have no worries putting those two in. 

For me Hutchinson and Watson proved against Salford and Sheff Utd that they are miles ahead of Dixon and Thompson at the moment, but ones a perennial unused sub and the other has disappeared of the planet!
