Bryan has looked shot for confidence in his last 2-3 games IMO. Not driving at his opposing full back like we know he can. This game is also showing that it’s really time put genuine full backs into the RB/LB slots. Wright & Maggs whilst solid enough defending, offer absolutely nothing going forward. Balance of the team from front to back looks all wrong tonight. This is causing a ripple effect which means Reid and Patts are having to drop so so deep to get on the ball. 

Injuries ffs 

we cant play with a proper right back obviously and are more solid with joe in front of mags. Fully fit squad we would have 2 proper full backs.

Seemed to be a bit slow towards the end of the first half. 2 or 3 not marking or looking about. Flint has to pick somebody up. Don’t give Nugent 10 foot all the time. Stay tight. Smith keeps giving the ball away. Patterson is wriggly in and out of them. But had left footed Bryan been on the end of our best chance instead of right footed Patterson we would have been one up. We need to be 10 % better in the second half or we could lose this game.COYRs.

Putting diedhiou on for Magnússon, and having Bryan drop back could help us there. Also maybe Kent on for Pato on the wing?

Pointless football so far. It’s all well and good trying to play perfect football, quick interchanging pass but it has to have a purpose of which there is currently none!

Get Fammy on and play more direct. If he is fit enough to be on the bench he must be fit enough to play 45 mins.

I think the purpose of it is to try and create space, which the Derby defence are offering very little of. Diedhiou coming on probably will help, but I hope it's not to be "direct", or hoof ball.

A very similar performance to the last 3, lots of pretty football but we either over complicate or run out of ideas in attacking situations and we have no scoring threat, poor crossing as well.

It doesn't help with playing 2 players who are not full backs, Magnússon has been ok but occasionally strays to far forward but Wright for me is on the edge of a second yellow.

That all said it was refreshing to see that we are not over awed by them and boy what another team of whingers and whiners, who know how to go down easily, more of a presence upfront would help.

Russell and Lawrence particularly, what a pair of belters they are.

Can't see a change to early in the 2nd half, but FD will add an option. Depends how fit he really is.
Be nice to see Bobby playing off of him like earlier in the season.

 

So anyone watching Sky will see the I know absolutely **** all :facepalm:
