r4derby Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 11 hours ago, brady1993 said: It's more that I think most of the older heads currently here won't be next season; a fair few are likely to retire and the ones that don't are likely to leave. Although I concede the point that's it worth sprinkling experienced players in still this season to help bed the younger players in better. It's a bit of an aside but in general I think Bird gets less time on the ball playing alongside Shinnie than he would with a lot of other midfielders. For this season, we should definitely focus on getting players game time who are going to be at the club next season (assuming management can actually determine that). However, there’s still around 30 games to play this season at a fairly high level. Every game alongside experienced pros is a benefit to the development of our current youngsters. The more game time Buchanan has alongside Curtis and Phil, the better and quicker he will learn. Same can be said for Knighty, Sibley, Bird, Festy etc. jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d swap him and Sibley and move Knight to the right. Either way, it’s not a team overflowing with goal scorers is it? Such a shame as they play some lovely stuff at times.

Rambam Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 Sadly we could now witness very poor crowds. The EFL have pulled the rug from under our feet. on tv. Not everyone has their season ticket or a will to attend. Very sad times. jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

24Charlie Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 No point in caution. It could be very entertaining watching the Rams over the next few months. We could do an Albania who got stuffed by England because they had to go for it or we win a few. Who knows, but playing defensive now is pointless. Everyone should be expecting us to go for it including the opposition. So two defensive midfielders seems a bit negative. I’ll be really interested so see how Wayne sets them up. r_wilcockson and jimtastic56 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravabeerbelly Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 (edited) I don’t think you’ll see much change. Wayne Rooneys long term interest will be the same as every other ambitious person in any walk of life….himself. So going out gung ho with experimental sides and young kids getting spanked every week will not be part of the plan (not to mention I think he has too much consideration towards those young players than to subject them to that anyway). His aim now will be to be able to point to a points total that without the deductions would’ve kept Derby in the Championship. With all the background noise that in itself would be a major achievement and one that will help him when he eventually does look to move on and upwards as a manager.

Really strong interview from Wayne and I'm in no way his biggest fan. Couldn't ask any more from him in terms of clarity, commitment and courage!

Would that not go beyond the 25 player registered limit? He wasn't talking about 'starting him tomorrow' - he said he was getting close to the first team. I think we're allowed to play him now because at the date of the Budget Agreement with the EFL he's not classed as one of the maximum 25 Permitted Players even if he now plays for the first XI (because he's not played in 3 League matches).
