    If TC did nothing else this summer he should've learned to kick with his left bloody foot.

    Already been a number of crossing opportunities that he turned down to get back to his right and the same with a shooting chance.

    It's criminal that modern professional footballers will not kick with their wrong foot.
    It’s almost like he should be on the left cutting in.

    Possession wise we've responded better to the goal, than what we did a lot last season
    Need to do something with it though, again all the talk about signing Strikers in the summer because we didnt score enough. But the problem remains the fact that we dont have enough decent options to create the chances for the Striker(s) to put away in the first place.

    Feels like Derby are just taking a breather and letting us have a bit of possession.

    Campbell should have taken a fall there. Instead tries to dribble it on and then gets cleanly tackled on the follow up - and falls from that one.

    Or just on the left

    Campbell skins his man whips in a cross - No one near.

    Good to see we've switched Campbell and Grant, wondered if we'd do that at some stage seeing it worked last weekend

    Feels like Grant is getting increasingly frustrated at the lack of movement around him.

    I’d be tempted to switch TC to the left, Godden off for Apter, Grant in the middle.

    Now and again I'd like him to put in a decent cross with his left so that it's not so predictably easy for the full back.

    ? Given some streams are delayed more than others - some detail is welcome.

    Is 4 at the back working?

    Another season and we are still reliant on Carey's hit and hope free kicks and corners.
  • I struggle to see how Godden can lead the line by himself, great finisher but he can’t win and being down these long balls by himself. 
  • Good cross from TC, lovely strike from McNamara well blocked

    I hear ya - but he’s not left-footed is he. We’d need someone else there. The reality is, Grant and TC both play off the left. Unless Grant is going to play through the middle, I can’t see them working together in the same team. That could happen, as I don’t think Godden can play upfront on his own.

    Good effort from McNamara blocked. Good ball from TC created the chance.

    Bell isn’t a left back 
    He’s not. But he was caught at centre half for that goal and still not good enough. 
    Said this last season. Just a show poney on the ball. Macca was a better option but not Jones man.

    I think Derby have figured out if Campbell gets shown onto his left foot, he really doesn't want to.

    Blame Robben while playing for chelsea all those years ago.

    It’s kinda like we don’t know how to score a goal…

    My point is that NO professional footballer should be so one-footed that they will not use their other foot.
