I'd be tempted to play Rose between Hyam and JCS, i think fadz has dropped off it a bit in the last cuople of games.

I’d like to see Kane in for his final ball, especially with Walker in the team. Not sure about Dabo on the left but equally not sure about dropping him. Maybe start Dabo and bring Kane on later if we’re looking for a goal depending on how the WBs are getting on.
I’d like JCS back in, but Rose was excellent and hard to drop. Tempted to say drop Hyam but he’s been excellent recently too.
Sheaf in for Kelly I think is a no brainier.
Up front Id be tempted to go Walker and Godden if Vik isn’t fit, but they don’t seem to work that well together, but both in goal scoring form and I’d always play strikers in form if I can.
Will be interesting to see what Robins goes for. Most of all I want a reaction from Wednesday so whoever is showing that in training id give the go ahead to.
I think if you're playing those three then Hyam makes more sense as the central one. Rose has more pace to be the wide player and is better on the ball.I'd be tempted to play Rose between Hyam and JCS, i think fadz has dropped off it a bit in the last cuople of games.
It's a tough choice for Robins to make. Godden was arguably man of the Match against Fulham, but Walker has scored 2 in 2. Waghorn is probably back to full fitness too and will be desperate to play against Derby. I guess it's a great problem to have.
He wasn't. Great assist but he was completely anonymous in the first half.
No bigger fan of McFadz than me but in the last two games Blackburn & Preston I thought he struggled in the last 15 or so minutes although admittedly part of that was due to the gap we had centre midfield. Michael Rose who I rate highly was okay in both games playing out of position on the left, we need JCS back for balance, interesting dilemma for Robins.McFadzean will play every game he’s fit I imagine. The defence would crumble (even more so) without him
Good dilema to haveNo bigger fan of McFadz than me but in the last two games Blackburn & Preston I thought he struggled in the last 15 or so minutes although admittedly part of that was due to the gap we had centre midfield.

They'll be in for a surprise then......"Sky Blue Army"Derby forumite:
" Our fans will be making all the noise again that's a certainty..Coventry fans usually act like they are in a library."
I think Godden and Walker are too similar. I'd play Walker and Waghorn if Gyo isn't 100%.For Saturday's game I'd take Hyam out, move Rose across and bring JCS back in.
Take Kelly out for Sheaf.
I thought Gyokeres wasn't quite as sharp as he has been so would possibly consider Godden and Walker up top to start.
Walker & Wagborn - ex- forest & ex-Derby.....they should get a warm reception from the travelling fans.I think Godden and Walker are too similar. I'd play Walker and Waghorn if Gyo isn't 100%.
Godden and Gyo are then top class options off the bench.
It is an option although apart from the Preston game Hyam has been excellent. I do think Rose has done enough the last two games to stay in the team and imo JCS should come back in, will be interesting.JCS in for Hyam and move Rose over.

Maatsen had a poor second half but then again so did everybody, he was decent first half and agree that he's a far better option then a right footed player. In fairness to him as well he is disadvantaged playing to the left of a right sided centre back.I know Maatson had a poor game on Weds night but there is no way i would drop him for either Kane or Dabo based on the Blackburn performances at left back. If Victor is even remotely doubtful i would leave him out for one of the other two.
Can see this being our hardest game at home so far this season, heart always says a win, but i think im not even going to try and predict after Wednesday nights, 3- 1 City
I wasnt singling Maatsen out,simply that some in this thread wanted Dabo at left back which would be bad enough but if JCS is missing having Dabo or Kane on the left side again is a disaster waiting to happen.Maatsen had a poor second half but then again so did everybody, he was decent first half and agree that he's a far better option then a right footed player.

Also if the unthinkable happens and we don't go up (we're going up) then we have another year of Championship experience in the squad another year of championship money to improve the squad and possible a couple of big windfalls to improve the squad.Reading this thread makes you appreciate the options we now have available compared to last season.
Still a bit light in one or two areas but still a vast improvement.
JCS in for Hyam and move Rose over.
When was the last time Hyam was dropped? it always seems to be Rose who makes way.

We may spend a lot less than most clubs in this division but what I've learned since we got promoted is that most teams are chucking way too much money at bang average players. All we have to do is be smart in our recruitment and we're fine.
I just don't feel like we're under threat and have already established ourselves at this level. Feels good man.
I think MR will be looking for energy throughout the side for this gameI do hope not. Walker finds some form and gets put back on the bench
Well I could see the addition of Allen for this purpose.I think MR will be looking for energy throughout the side for this game
Godden and Allen will give us this
Couldn’t be any worse than when we played 5 up front against Southampton.......................could it?We’re gonna play 4 up front
