I think the goalkeeper deflected the ball behind Max .

Slight deflections can mean you run past the ball and can’t get your feet right .

Criticizing Bird is ridiculous in my eyes as he always gives his best for the team whatever .

The miss was the Gazza-Germany Euro 96 miss reversed.

No difference in terms of goals scored , in fact in the 2nd half it went down.

We actually looked more dangerous 2nd half as Bird actually plays it on the floor to another Derby player which is quite refreshing. He was doing it that well the manager decided it was a good idea to move him. Why?

Not to be that guy, because I like Bird but:

Without Bird - played 6, won 4, drawn 1 and lost 1.

With Bird - played 7, won 2, drawn 2 and lost 4. 

Have you got one for "with Bird playing half a match in which he was moved from a position where he was orchestrating the play to one where he didn't see as much of the ball so had far less influence"?

You're right; all I could think while he was efficiently and swiftly picking out team-mates for fun in contrast to our first half performance was "this is way too negative - time to cut out the middle man again"
