What is it about the Sky Commentators and their love in with Derby ? Anyone would think that none of the problems they have had off field had nothing to do with the club and not justified. They cheated their way through the last few seasons and by rights should be playing Div 1 this season .But no according to Sky they are a big club who deserve to be i the top flight.

What a joke…now muted the match  rather than listen to the shit they come out with.

Have to say that was a good half from Derby & the worrying aspect is that their midfield look significantly more disciplined and mobile than ours. Play 2 in there and we will get over run for sure.  Hats off to them as results against Bournemouth and Fulham not to be sniffed at and QOR would be another scalp.

Seems like most teams at this level play good stuff now except us ?

Who is playing as the striker? I tried to watch the game but the link doesn't work 

Morrison with Lawrence to the left.

Despite the loss Derby seem an alright team who will cause us problems, we will need to be at them from the start and get right in there faces to stand a chance. Changes required to our powder puff mid field and the defence needs to wake the hell up.

What changes could we make? 

IN; Semenyo, Janneh, Palmer.... Out/SUBS; Wells, Massengo, Martin; not much chance thoughmore likely start the other way around. We need livening up a bit up can hardly be any worse :dunno:

Who would you play in CM if you're dropping Massengo?

Assuming no James (or the other injured players) this is what I’d be doing:

                          Bentley

       Vyner | Kalas | Atkinson | Pring

Scott | Massengo | Bakinson | O’Dowda

               Semenyo | Weimann

Subs: O’Leary, Simpson, Dasilva, Benarous, Martin, Wells, Pearson

I think Semenyo will give us something Derby’s defenders won’t like.  Davies and Jagielka won’t like his power and pace.

I had the same team in the other thread with exceptions of Tanner and James coming in if they are fit for Vyner and Bakinson. Could be 4-1-2-3, 4-4-2, or 3-5-2 .

I reckon (hope) that Semenyo is a nailed on starter, he may still be a bit raw but he can unsettle any defence. COD looks to have found some confidence and form so I think he'll get a game - could link up well with Pring.

Time to rest Martin and freshen things up a bit, but I can't see NP resting Martin.

What a banging goal that winner was. After everyone below us won on the weekend (barring the two who played one another - who drew), it’s nice to see an actual useful result. I actually cheered that winner!

My reaction too.

This says an awful lot about the state of us at the moment - it's November and we're already worrying about the results around us.

Just a reminder Derby still would have been 21pts behind even if they had drawn that game ? They need play off form to get out of relegation and despite good results against Bournemouth and Fulham I can't see them getting close to that. Will still be an uphill battle on Saturday I think if neither James or Williams are fit enough to play.

If Barnsley or Peterboro go on a run then that would be a bit more worrying, I knew Hull had picked up but fair play just realised they have won 4 on the bounce.

You're going to be disappointed if you expect Palmer to play in a city shirt again.

I actually don't think he should be frozen out entirely. He's got that bit about him and some games our creativity is close to nil. I know he's frustrating on his day but you'd be hard pressed to find many in our team that aren't.

For some reason, no idea what it is, NP won't drop Martin,although he does nothing

Martin has been one of the better players for us this season, IMO, but he certainly needs a rest. 

I've been wanting Semenyo back for a full 90 for most of the season. Really think he can offer us something else going forward

Don't disagree with you at all.

My comment was more based on what Nige seems to think and I'm fairly confident he wants Palmer no where near the team and is definitely one of the players he wants to move on.

Yep agree Dave, would play him on Jagieka's side, he is a lot less mobile than Davies.

Play Palmer instead of Bakinson. Semenyo from start. Palmer stronger in body and can defence better than Bakinson. Think Bakinson not good enough for this leauge.

I like the idea of Semenyo and Weimann up front especially- but that could be our best bet in general Saturday.

A good point is that out of possession too, it can become a bit of a 4-4-1-1/4-5-1...ie Weimann behind Semenyo or vice versa or Scott moving inside, with Semenyo wide right, O'Dowda wide left and Weimann in the middle.

I have always thought Semenyo and Weimann as a combination to be potentially exciting at times...Semenyo young and something different and we all know how hard Weimann can work, plus the versatility he has.

If people think Semenyo will be our saviour/even improve us then they are grabbing at straws...

Need a rest? What's he done to deserve it rest,

I'd be tempted to play him wide with Scott playing as a 10..
