Maybe writing him off is a bit far but in my opinion he is getting unjust criticism. You can't judge a player after what 50 minutes playing time, playing out of position. Calling him an academy player when he he has played 40 plus games at championship level at the age of 19 isnt right either.

He isnt an academy recruit Tyrone,he played 36 times for Forest in the championship last season. You used to play didnt you?Then surely you can appreciate it will take a bit of time for Brereton to settle.He hadn't been involved with Forest this season so how can you expect him to have full match sharpness when he hasnt been playing. I find it absolutely ridiculous that people are writing off Brereton after a max hour's playing time for us

He hasn't scored goals on a regular basis since he left here. Boro didnt give him game time,Sheffield Wednesday he was mostly poor when he did play and was left on the bench more often than not.Now the manager at Norwich has dropped him after a few games of him playing up front on his own. In my opinion we won't be seeing Rhodes amongst the top scorers in this division again.What next for him if it doesnt work out at Norwich

Danny Graham is undoubtedly our best striker but Mowbray himself has said on numerous occasions that Graham struggles playing 3 games in a week. I presume his thought process on this is coming from the medical team and the player himself. In an ideal world Graham would start every match but can see why Chaddy and others don't expect him to start on Saturday due to the managers previous comments about Graham's fitness. Graham has a history of injuries throughout his career and the last thing i want to see is him getting overplayed , getting injured and out for a period of time

He is available on saturday, its the following league game against Forest he can't play. Gavlar was thinking the Forest match was this saturday.

They said Mulgrew was ill on ifollow, at least he aint injured, hopefully back for Stoke on Saturday

A good point but awful performance in midfield and attack. Defence did ok considering the amount of attacks they faced. Has Rothwell run over Mowbray's dog or something? Reed and Rothwell to start the next game please

Not only Chaddy, Brereton is a highly rated young player hence the transfer fee. It was a Mowbray signing.

Involved with the under 23 tonight according to the let

Smallwood fortunate not to be dropped. Strong bench

Tom Lawrence sent off for Derby will be missing against us midweek

Rhodes and Marshall both on the bench for Norwich today

Villa could have Abraham and Bolasie to call upon this time.It will be a tough game. Id definitely be starting Bennett wide of the 3 in this match as our full backs are going to need a little help. Abraham,El Ghazi,Bolasie and Grealish could be their front four and those 4 wouldnt look out of place in the league above. Although i hope we are positive and go for the win it will be an extremely tough game and we cant go too attacking as that front four could tear us apart

Lenihan and Mulgrew are the centre half pairing in the stat championship of the month. Be nice if Mowbray won manager of the month but will be shocked if Biesla doesnt get it

Bad day at the office

Awful second half

I'd a tenner on Mulgrew first goalscorer at 14/1 So iv put 30 on Brererton next goal at 8/1

I doubt armstrong will play 90 either as been out and will Graham we should see Brererton and Rothwell at some point Hope we go for the win

Nyambe needs a bit more help from Bennett I agree with the commentator ,on ifollow your man he is up against looks decent the young full back is handy too.

In fairness to Armstrong he has been injured so May be lacking in sharpness but he should have done better with that Palmer is a classy player but he is frustrating too should have buried that Bennett has been pretty poor in possession today

Now Armstrong no composure

Poor from Bennett if we can get a second they won't come back

Palmer should have buried that

Full live match

It's on ifollow in UK I just purchased it for a tenner
