Christ, looked so comfortable for a while but last 15-20 was as bad as I've seen us this season. Half asleep.

Yeah, I thought we looked comfortable too.

We crumbled as the half wore on though

We need to bring on Wright Rudoni and EMC at 60 minutes

Need to bring them on at half time, don't wait until 60 minutes, Esse has been pants Eccles having a nice stroll about and Eddie Murphy upfront aint cutting it

 

[Bristol sky blue]

Would take a point now.

 

[shmmeee]

Poor prizes on kick it for a ticket tbh

 

[Pezza]

Awful since we scored. Nobody playing even a 7…

Esse has been really poor.

 

[Mercian In Anglia]

I dont think we were that bad first half hour

Last 15 utter fucking shite. Glad weve got a million options on the bench

Need the 2nd half to be Millwall (H) rather than Norwich (A). We've got the quality to win but any loss of concentration and they've got more than enough to beat us.

 

[TomRad85]

Dasilva looks like a player who has played 200 mins in the break. Missing Lats at the back again. Midfield just not on it. Esse despite starting well has gone back to old habits. Get to 60 and get Rudoni, EMC on. I’d out KKH on but Lampard won’t.

I was thinking KKH should be going on but also don't think Lampard will.

 

[no_loyalty]

Hopefully get EMC on for Esse at the start of the second half.

 

[fernandopartridge]

Aside from the defending what on earth is Rushworth doing for their goal?

 

[CraigSBA]

We will win , second half will be much better

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Aside from the defending what on earth is Rushworth doing for their goal?

Everyone on the right of our defence and the left and Rushworth could have done better

 

[Otis]

Aside from the defending what on earth is Rushworth doing for their goal?

Yeah. Lost in no man's land there wasn't he

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Judging by how shot Dasilva looks I’m not sure how wise throwing on a jet lagged Mason Clark for 45 minutes is

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Aside from the defending what on earth is Rushworth doing for their goal?

Straight up wasn’t expecting the ball in.

 

[TomRad85]

Aside from the defending what on earth is Rushworth doing for their goal?

Yeh he's got away with being talked about largely for that but its not great is it. Made up for it though I suppose.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Judging by how shot Dasilva looks I’m not sure how wise throwing on a jet lagged Mason Clark for 45 minutes is

So get KKH or Bidwell on at least.

 

[Otis]

I think he could maybe manage 15-20 mins. I would be surprised if we threw him on at half time

 

[Cally Fedora]

Need a change at left back. We’re not really opening them up but they’re nothing special. Subs to make the difference. Dasilva, Eccles, Esse need reminding they are not playing for 1970’s Brazil. Do the simple stuff first

 

[Shannerz]

JDS looks knackered.

The international break has been a fucker for this game.

 

[Dazmataz]

Poor prizes on kick it for a ticket tbh

Woeful.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Wright and Rudoni not out at half time. Mason Clarke only just came out.

 

[Paxman II]

Esse and Eccles are cak. Da.Silva tired. Kitching poor as usual, never pays attention. We are losing the midfield.
Get Wright's power and running up front, Rudoni for Eccles, and see if daSilva can improve. We are slow, forgetting to press.

 

[stupot07]

If we're being honest we started ok, but created little and took the lead with a worldie of a cross by Onyeka, and have had very little control of the game. We created one or two half moments but the longer the half went the Derby have controlled possession and we keep putting ourselves under pressure by giving easy possession away constantly.

The stats are depressing reading

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Based on the routine I reckon there’s multiple changes coming.

 

[hinckley cov]

Hopefully get EMC on for Esse at the start of the second half.

Yes Esse has been awful keeps losing the ball

Eccles literally our best player that half

 

[CovveeBreak]

KKH for JDS

Jahnoah for Esse

 

[ceetee]

Lads and lasses, we’re fucking promoted. Relax

We are not

 

[EalingSB]

Brereton Diaz was in New Zealand playing twice for Chile and he's played well.

 

[Perennial Lurker]

Those slating Eccles haven't watched the first half without any bias , he's been a great outlet and won many fouls in dangerous areas of the pitch
He isnt the reason Derby levelled .
We're missing our best player EMC massively , when he doesn't play our outlet and progression up the pitch is poor

 

[jto123]

Just looks like a six a side player trying to dribble past entire team, very apparent why he didn’t get a sniff at palace

Oh god. We’ve all played with that player.

Eccles hasn't been the issue.

depressing lol

 

[Mercian In Anglia]

Generational bad take from the Guardian minute by minute:

Onyeka enters the box, and sends what looks like a cross swinging out to in … and over O’Donnell, and into the top left! Not 100 percent sure he meant it, but he cares not one jot!

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Hoping there was a rocket up the arses at HT if we aren’t making subs.
