That Derby front four are lethal. Agyemang, Brereton, Clark and Brewster, glad we're not playing them again until the end of the season. Agyemang plays like he's playing with a younger age group.
As I write that their four replacements carve open Brizzle for a 5th. They could've had more too.
Derby look like the team who power through the play-offs...but, Sanderson and Clarke.
Just had a close-up of Rob Dickie. We've seen that look before from him. |
Maybe Derby went for a slow burn approach to their fitness this year mate? Hit their straps round about now… |  | |  |

8 away wins is damn impressive for a team that lost at Oxford. It is a big turnaround since the Rams lost 4-0 to us when Eustace arrived. |  | | |

Eustace who we groomed for four years then ditched. |
Exactly, missed a real opportunity to kick on with him. He has done pretty well at all the clubs he has gone to since leaving us. Always liked the Warburton/Eustace ticket and rather hoped that when Warbs time as manager finished that Eustace would take over with Warbs moving into a director of football role. |  | | |

I think we do now have to accept the bloke’s a bloody good manager at this level.
Every time I see a team pissing about at the back concede a goal off a high press it brings a little bit of joy back. | | | |

This may not be the case in about 18 hours. |  | | |

Certainly been eating their greens.
Interesting that their recruitment guy left in October and hasn't been replaced. Wonder if that's a battle Eustace won. Certainly still signing very good players - big shame Eustace wasn't trusted at QPR, though don't reckon he'd work as merely a first team coach who's handed a squad. He's a good judge of his own (perhaps Sanderson aside). | | | |

I thought Derby were really good tonight: moved the ball quickly, very competitive for every ball, solid at the back, and good movement. That said, City were absolute pony. A mind-blowingly wan k performance from them. One fit CB to select, so why play with 3 CBs? So open at the back, sloppy with the ball all over the park, and completely toothless.
If Vyner goes without being adequately replaced then City could well finish 14-16 on recent performances. Lots of very pis sed-off locals. Can't have been more than 3,000 odd City fans left in the ground from 85 onwards. Probably only 4-5,000 tops after 75 mins. Never seen anything like it. |  |

Feeling more confident (from a Derby perspective) about my September statement that if we finish above Derby, we will be in the play-offs. Eustace a bloody good manager | | | |

Imagine if Eustace was here, filling the team with established old pros, he’d probably have been run out of town by now. |  | | |

Lots of established, hard-bitten pros, but also Clark is only 20 and Eames a homegrown teen - both look absolutely mustard. Good mix.
The real elephant in the room is how strong, fit and hungry Derby looked. Steamrolled a Brizzle who did appear to be trying to lose their manager, shocking performance, but still. Didn't see too many hammy stretches from Derby mid-game.
Eustace is a very smart and efficient builder of Championship teams. Incredible that we thought we'd be clever and pick Beale over him. | | | |

Wonder what Brewster and Brereton are on. Didn’t think he’d get those two going but fair play. Probably no more than Glass-Salter.
Thought they’d regress without Morris but they’ve kicked on. | | | |

Eustace is shrewd as well. Eyebrows were raised when he jumped to Derby from Blackburn last season.
He’s been vindicated as the on-going bin fire at Blackburn shows. |  | | |
