samo II Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 Hope we aim for an early goal to try and force Derby to confront their lack of goals. Fancy they'll not be much in it; either us or Derby to win by a goal - hoping for City 2-1. COYR Quote Link to comment
Ashtonwurzel Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 City to win and both teams to score is 4/1 with bet365 = decent bet. Quote Link to comment

Give Reid an opportunity to stake a claim further forward and another chance for ROD to redeem himself. I like the look of that team with two attacking wide players to support Abraham. If we put Derby under pressure, what confidence they have after a poor start might disappear. However, I doubt that Smith is match fit after his injury, so start with Brownhill and bring him on as sub if necessary. I'd also prefer Tomlin to Reid. I also think Little is a weak link, but not sure there a fit right back to replace him. Quote Link to comment

Its unlikely we would sign any, particularly as they'd likely need time to get up to speed and LJ rates Matthews as one of the best in this league when he is fit. Quote Link to comment

Offside Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 For some reason I've got a bad feeling about the game today. Defensively we'll need to be switched on, especially if Ince is playing because he is one of those players who always seems to score against us. Hopefully my gut feeling is wrong and we'll get 3 points. COYR Quote Link to comment
... Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 I want to see a City side today playing with pride, commitment and guts - and for the fans. We are at home, and we should give anyone one of the hardest games of the season. If we can do this, we should get the three points.

If it was Blackburn or Rotherham at home I wouldn't have an issue with them getting the nod, but for Derby probably best to stick with Little. Quote Link to comment

EstoniaTallinnRed Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 Let's just say as others have, that I think we will struggle without O'Neil. I really hope that Derby have not got their shooting boots on today and we can scrape a win, but sadly I don't think so. One crumb of comfort, last time I said exactly the same, we won. so COYRs!

Shtanley Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 The dreaded 352 returns. Tammy having someone near to him hopefully helps him even more. Nice to see Engvall in the squad hope he comes on too. Quote Link to comment
WRERE Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 (edited) According to Twitter it's a 5-2-1-2 but I think Magnusson will go LB and it will be a 4231 / 4411 like we usually play Edited September 17, 2016 by WRERE Quote Link to comment

stogursey red Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 352 all out attack today then, if Darby have any pace upfront then we could be in big trouble but rally hope they are as shot to pieces as some say and we can run riot Quote Link to comment

CheddarReds Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 (edited) Will be really interesting to see how we play today with the players we've got on the pitch. Hope Engvall gets on also. I wouldn't be surprised to hear tomlin and Paterson are drifting wide from central positions regularly almost like a 5-4-1 at times, but we will see! Unfortunately wont be there for a while so I'm relying on balanced, well constructed, non-biased match reports on OTIB!! Edited September 17, 2016 by CheddarReds Quote Link to comment
Garland-sweden Posted September 17, 2016 Report Share Posted September 17, 2016 Ok, Ekstrand and Engvall. Hope IT turns well. Come on Frankie! Quote Link to comment
