Robert’s looks good but seems to be reluctant to be an overlapping full back when he should be.

Suspect that's the more natural CB traits.

Full time - Stevenage 1-0 Derby

A difficult game, a reality check maybe, but they'll learn more from that than they did from the Hertha game. I think for me, we've tried to play Championship football against a 'proper' League 2 team.

Let's not panic. We're 2 weeks behind these other teams.

Complete and utter s*** for 90 minutes as soon as we play against the sort of football we'll see utilised against us on a regular basis this season.

Hard to see what we were even trying to do tbh, other than practice our reactions to losing the ball in as many stupid ways as possible!

Oh well it's a good job pre season results mean nowt!

Obviously you don’t want to read too much into preseason games, but the slightly concerning thing is that we’re carrying on last seasons pattern of playing well against footballing teams (Hertha Berlin), and struggling against teams that try to stop us playing (today). And in League one, there are going to be significantly more teams trying to stop us than trying to outplay us.
