I actually quite like that with what we have available. 
 

It won’t be 4-0 though 😂

4 nil?! We havent scored 4 goals in the last 13 gamed combined.

Gallagher was crap again yesterday, so difficult to pick a strikeforce considing how incapable of scoring all of our attackers are minus Dack and Brereton.

Would keep the back 3, id bring in Giles for Pickering, probably go with a front 3 of Hedges, Dolan and Khadra, not many goals there but thats the case in general. Nyambe if fit back on the right, if not go with Buckley there.

Best case scenario is a 1 nil I suspect.

[Oldgregg86]

I’d go

                  Kaminski

                The 3 musketeers 

Jrc.                                            Giles

                  Travis   Buckley

Rothwell.                                 Dolan

                       Gallagher

                      

[tomphil]

We'll start with nil and end with nil the key is if Derby do the same on not.

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

Derby will be up for this. Rovers might be. If they aren’t we’ll lose. It’s not time to put in our usual “ good run when it doesn’t matter ”  yet.

IMO Gallagher should never play again for us. He is completely useless. Would rather play an academy lad or anything with a pulse

Still can't quite believe what happened on Saturday. I was and remain devastated about the result.

I am by no means a Gallagher fan but when Dack entered the fray on Saturday he seemed to have more impetus. I'm not sure if that's because he started to playing more centrally with an obvious partner or what it was. 

I think the team that you've picked here @chaddyrovers is the one I'd go with too.

[USABlue]

Heartbreaking result Saturday.  Sadly Tuesday night will be more of the same.  Rivers nil, Derby nil or more.

We'll be lucky to score one.Derby fighting tooth and nail for survival...

What are we fighting for ? Not much as far as I can see. Happy days and all lads together down at Ewood.

Just reminds me of a line from a Country Joe and the Fish  song about Vietnam. 

“ What are we fighting for ? Who cares, I don’t give a damn “ .

The amount of real fighting spirit that the likes of Moran and Speedie showed back when we first struggled up out of this division is sadly lacking and has been for 10 years. We out football teams from time to time but how often do we actually out fight teams that are better than we are ? I’d say never.

Would like to see a team like this personally...

Things need to be switched up. Give young Jack Vale a start, he'll be hungry to make his mark and knows where the net is, unlike Gallagher who I honestly wouldn't play against a Sunday League team right now. Sure he works hard, but he simply just doesn't have the ability.

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

I’m just hoping Merc has his shirt on Derby, we’ve got half a chance then.

I said the same thing before the Bristol city game on Saturday on this site, maybe the opposition have sussed are formation out in the second half of the season I was criticised by some people.I would drop that prolific goal scorer Gallagher and play Hedges for 90 minutes, he can't do any worse.If Gallagher signed for celtic they would be mid table in the scottish premier. I would go for an all out attacking formation, we need to win this one desperately, or it's another season in the championship. The opposition are rubbing there hands with glee at the moment playing haven't a clue what to do Blackburn Rovers.

Lucky if we get 0-0 if prolific goalscorer Gallagher plays, how many has he scored 1 in the last 20 matches.

[Leonard Venkhater]

OMG..the ides of March too!

It is written.....

[Miller11]

I don’t think we need to move away from the back 5, we just need to stop playing our forwards so wide, and Buckley needs to be less advanced… an attacking midfielder rather than the focal point of the attack.

I’d start…

.                               Kaminski

              Lenihan  Van Hecke   Wharton

Nyambe/JRC                                             Giles

                   Buckley   Travis   Rothwell

                                   Dolan

                                Gallagher

 

I don’t think Gallagher deserves to start, but he’s in by default. He’d be under strict instruction to stay central and I’d sub him off the first time he went within 10 yards of either touchline.

I do realise this will never happen as it negates the 10 or so wide forwards Mowbray has stockpiled and obsessed over.

Trust me mate, Celtic wouldn’t touch him in a million years.

For once the stats are all in our favour on this match:

Won 7 of last 9 v Derby

Won last 4 home games against them, only conceding 1 goal.

They've only beaten us at home once in last 20 years (since 2001)

Derby have lost last 7 away games straight, and only scored 1 goal in last 5 away.

 

We all know that means one thing..........just kidding, we're actually going to win this one, just to keep the 'hope that kills' going.

This lot are going to keep us torturously hanging on for a while yet, I reckon Bournemouth, the penultimate game of season, is when all hope will finally be extinguished. 

And yes, I'm feeling very positive this Monday.

I'm abit like that myself. Still can't believe we didn't win on Saturday after the chances we created.

Agreed with your comment about Gallagher seems much better and more determine when he went centre with Dack. One of the reasons I put him up front. Plus I want my wide players and full backs putting crosses in. 

The team I have picked is balanced and I went for back 4 cos I want us to press higher and similar to Swansea and Cardiff when we played that well. Derby will play it out from the back and I believe we should be pressing higher which something we didn't do on Saturday enough
