All these concerns about playing Derby, people were saying the same thing before we played Swansea.

Tbf I say the same before every game. I never trust us to win!

Derby worry me because I have the impression they’re a big, strong, tough side who can bully us a bit. I really hope onyeka is fit for this one.

Isn’t it the JSB open training session tomorrow? Get your kids to keep an eye out for Wright and Rudoni’s involvement!

It is happening now, club have just put a clip on instagram and looks like no Rudoni involved

Rumours of no BTA Wright and Rudi in training. In which case if none are fit to start think I’d go:

Rushworth
MvE Thomas Kitching Dasilva
Onyeka Grimes
Saka Eccles Markelo
Simms

Im here and there's no BTA Rudi or Haji

However I dont think that means anything, we've seen them all attending training on club socials over the last week so probably given them the day off, and not wanting Derby to know. Not the first time weve done that under lampard

Don't read too much into it. It's an open training session with hundreds of camera phones there.

If I was Lampard, I'd sit out anyone that has a question mark over them in the public domain just to preserve an edge over the opposition.

Derby will have to factor in more potential scenarios if they go into into Friday not knowing who's back from injury as well as who is or isn't back from internationals in a condition to play.

I reckon we've just tried to pull a bamboozle on Derby. Lampard learnt that from me when I announced EMC and Thomas hadn't travelled last week.

Turkey is only two hours ahead and a four hour flight.

Except normal service isn't guaranteed with a lot of flight cancellations.

Yeah agreed think he’ll have done that on purpose

I've just been past Ryton and spotted Haji, Rudi and BTA playing heads and volleys, panic over lads.

Are there?

The open session is basically just a kick around for the JSBs benefit isn't it? Wouldn't read anything into anything.
