Seeing a replay of the penalty and whatever contact was very slight. God has to be careful that he's not classed as a diver.

Controversial opinion perhaps but I would start Kane ahead of him, has more end product

O'Hare and Dabos link up is incredible. They regularly play themselves around 3-4 players

We should be going in 2 or 3 up. Derby look dangerous wide areas and suspect they will target Maatsen more second half

If that happens MR will bring Kane on and move Dabo across

O hare is just pivotal to the team. His close control and vision is shone anyone.

Sheaf is far superior to Kelly and created the goal

Gyokeres not at his best but his presence takes defenders with him.

Hamer hasn’t really replicated his first half of last season much since. You just expect more somehow especially against a struggling team who look poor

Should be a comfortable win but haven’t put the dominance into goals yet

O’Hare needs to sort is final product and then he will have outgrown us

He is - a Derby player would go down in the same scenario. At the moment it’s winning us the game

Lost 8 on the bounce, scoring only one goal. No surprise really

They're not as bad as their position shows. They've earned 16 points so far. It's just the administration penalty that has them bottom.

If he started banging in goals we’d lose him pretty quickly. However I want him to contribute more goals so it’s a double edged sword!

His connecting play with Ohare has been great but his final ball into the area today hasn’t been so good!

missed most of the half. Apparently playing well are we, but just a penalty to show for it?

That is high praise indeed. He is class. We took him off Wednesday and looked clueless going forward. It’s his work rate and willingness to get booted all over the park that’s also incredible. I’d love him to score today, get that monkey off his back

He may as well start banging them in, he won’t be ours forever, regardless

They do. But Dabos delivery is so poor, its so frustrating, he gets into such good positions but then it all goes wrong.

The two centre backs despite their years are both very decent players, in general their first 11 is better half a dozen teams in the league.

I think he might get subbed after 60-70 minutes

Not a bad half. They came back into it a bit at the end without really creating. We played a some lovely stuff at times without final ball. would take any kind of win today though ! Come on city

Think Derby look relatively organised at the back. Despite our good approach play we only really created three clear chances. Hopefully they'll tire in the second half.

He’s got no hair, he’s got no hair, I just don’t think you understand. The light shines down from high, and pokes you in the eye, Wayne Rooney’s got no hair.

That was shit.

A lot of experience but having two oldies could be an issue when up against pace. Then again it worked for Italy!
