[AAK]

sums up the game

Edited October 23 by AAK

[Mercer]

Get Hedges, Dolan and Ohashi off.

Brittain wide right, Siggy left, Cantwell number 10 role and Gueye up front.

[Exiled_Rover]

We're so much better defensively under Eustace. So well drilled.

Their two big chances have come from Carter's injury (he had his man covered and just fell to the floor - suspect that's a real bad one) and Pears failing to come and collect an aimless pass forward.

Going forward, well it's pace and height isn't it. Don't have either. He needs to give up on Cantwell wide left and just let him play centrally off Gueye. 

[Aqualung]

Best efforts on goal from both sides were defenders. Says it all really. 

[den]

Front three of Ohashi, Dolan and Hedges wouldn’t be good enough one league lower.

* just seen Mercers post.

Music at the ground is good tonight.

Obvious sarcasm, but genuinely want to know what that rave synth track that plays at the start is

I'd maybe prefer JRC there and Brittain behind, but i agree with the rest.

Far to open at the back IMO. Chasing players up and across the pitch leaving huge empty areas. Lucky to be 0-0. All to play for.

How many years have we been utterly useless at set pieces, fucking infuriating 

[London blue]

Stick the corner in the fucking box for fucks sake.

[bluebruce]

Ridiculous the ref gave that freekick when we were about to pull the trigger on a goal chance.

[yankfan]

Could we play a corner into the FIng box? 

[CrouchingNunhiddenCucumber]

A few weeks back Yuki finishes that 

[moerpho]

Much better 2nd half.

[Bethnal]

Good spell here, got to capitalise 

[London blue]

Bit more quality on the ball in the last 5. 

Our build up from the back is so predictable though, neither Travis or Tronstad really want the ball from a CB. It always goes out to a full back.

[Bethnal]

Also - who is Weimann kidding with that hair dye?

I was going to say, I've been busy with work lately so missed a game or two but I swear he was bleached blonde last time I saw him 

[yankfan]

Look what happens when the corner is played into the box 

[B16Rover]

Every highlight of Derby County I see is a calculated set piece and thundering header.  You'd think we'd be able to just copy that rather than piddle about with these choreographed routines 

[CrouchingNunhiddenCucumber]

Pears punching Trav, silly cunt

Cantwell lucky there 

[Tom]

It’s a penalty more often than not. We’ve got away with that
