Played better than Salford.  
 

Building well from the back.

Bird standout ,

Penalty very  soft .

Should have scored at least 2 .

Good workout for pre season .

Derby looked ok but not prolific.

Some good stuff but CKR getting irritated 

Need to play with higher tempo .

Typical pre season

we have been fine I think. Defensively I don't think we do look very comfortable on the few occasions we have been put under pressure. Going forward we are looking more dangerous but still only carved out on clear cut chance with Aluko's shot being blocked 1 vs 1.

Agree Curtains, scoring no goals ain’t prolific…

Tom Carroll has been brilliant so far

He's been pretty good - can see he's got quality on the ball.

Max Bird been the stand out player first half though - dominated the tempo & a lot of our brightest moments have come from him finding space & passing through the lines

Can't believe we're losing this - should be at least 3-1 up

Same as last season. Lots of nice interplay but few players who want to take real responsibility for making or scoring a goal. 

Players look relieved to be out of possession. 

Carroll has been tidy. Max Bird likes a long raking pass but this slows things down. 

Morrison looks the most likely to score a goal but looks frustrated by those around him. 

Byrne looks sharp, Buchanan less so. 

Jagielka would be good if he had pace next to him but over twenty yards he looks like me! 

Lawrence is no captain. 

Aluko flatters to deceive, nice moments followed by wasteful ones. 

It's early and impossible to make long term judgments but these are the ones I have made on one half of football.

Not sure I like the look of Tom Carroll.

Has gone down twice for absolutely nothing (anyone have a better view of the time he went down clutching his face?) And this isn't how I want Derby to be seen.

Had one possible bright moment, but with a squad, where we could/do have the likes of Knight, Bird, Bielik, Shinnie, Morrison, Watson, Sibley.

Do we really need him? Seems like it will be another who can do great things, but ultimately most of the time will end up frustrating us fans.

Players have got to get closer to ckr we need another 2 centre forwards to go with him as well as I wouldn’t want to play him more than 2 games in a row. At least we are creating good chances the only worry is non of them are natural finishers who and the front 4 won’t score any more than 6 a piece maybe Lawrence if he stays fit for the season and ckr
