Quite baffling. Not sure why Aribo has been completely frozen out and Matsuki looked decent in preseason. How frequently is Downes sick? Seems to be abnormally often, either he has a weakened immune system or just doesn't fancy it

Where were Jander and Downes? Are they injured or is Downes sick yet again??

That should be enough for Still to see the door surely.

3 donkeys at centre back, an ageing midget at rwb who's afraid to play it forward, 2 decent but inexperienced CMs and 2 strikers who can't really finish. I remember someone describing roy Hodgson managing England against Iceland as like a cow watching a train go past, starting to think Still is the same.

Such a simple pass for Arma and anyone with any kind of football intelligence makes that. He's only good when he has zero time to think

Great game for the neutered

Wow scienza is great to watch. Just need him to think "for fucks sake I'll do it myself" and put it in the net

Seems more like incompetence than greed. I think they've shown they're willing to spend on players but haven't identified the right positions, striker being the most notable issue

Why do you think we have been unable to play to his strengths? To be fair I've seen him trying to make runs in behind and the ball never comes...but the chances he has had he's fluffed as well

Had been coming for half an hour. They looked so shaky defensively and we've just let them into the game. Appalling.

Fantastic save from Mccarthy as well

Derby look absolutely abysmal lol. We should smash them

Fucking awful penalty. Why would you trust Armstrong to take penalties, he can barely control his legs. I swear everyone associated with this club is fucking incompetent

Are these players allergic to making runs behind the opposition??? Not sure what the point of Stewart is

Off the wall idea but why not play Stephens and THB upfront. Maybe they'll cause confusion and havoc in the oppositions box for a change?
