How many premiership players were in our starting line up today?

3rd time lucky
None because they will be playing in the premier LEAGUE!

"Come on Stephens you've got a contract to play for"
:-"Come on Stephens you've got a contract to play for"
So you would like Tony to spend more on 3 players than the club will receive for next season.
Clueless.

Radio Derby reporting last night that you're after Tom Ince - Very talented on his day but goes missing, not sure he's what you need but give us £10m and I'm happy

....and this is why we might sell him IMO !
Dunk has to have looked at all the abuse AK was giving the ref be and wondering how he got so many cards.
Would move Pog to subs and add Bruno, but this.

Absolutely no chance we'll sell Knockaert. He loves us & we love him and he has a point to prove in the Premier League.
The fringe & loan players will go as Jem says. I can see Murphy & Skalak going. Neither are PL standard. Stockdale & Stephens were tremendous yesterday yet they're the ones who are out of contract. Was Stockers waving goodbye yesterday?
Bong will get roasted in the Prem. I'd play Poc there all day long.

Sadly Kayal looks a shadow of the player of last season. I'm sorry to say that I think he won't cut it. Neither will Norwood (never EPL class), Murphy, Skalak, nor Hemed.
One plus point to this indifferent end of season period is Hunemeier. He probably won't be in our starting 11 in August, but I think he's shown enough to be a squad player.

He couldn't cope at all with Matt Smith at QPR. He has done well as a backup, but if we think we will survive with players of his standard in the Premier League then I think we are in for a shock.
Kayal still recovering from a huge season last season followed by long term injury. He's not 100% fit but I reckon a good pre season will sort him out. Kayal & Stephens need to stay if we're going to play 442

Hope we are not in for him, to many big time Charlies at Derby which is why they came up short.
The point that many are missing is that the club isn't going to, and frankly can't afford to, offload 4,5 or 6 contracted players in favour of like for like replacements.
As well as buy the players the team actually needs
He's been fantastic.
The 'woe is us' on here, at his reinstatement to the team typifies just how stupid we* all are.
*"no point signing Murray he'll be injured for half the season". ***cough***

Hemed and Murray would be good enough, as second choice, and dont play them together. we're so one dimensional with them both on, they want to do the same thing and the midfield have only one idea: down the wing and put in a cross. and too often Murray comes deep to find the ball if that isnt happening. a top striker, a deeper number 10 (Baldock may be good enough) in a 4-4-1-1 formation to inject some alternatives will be necessary next season.

Not at all mate, that's natural progression but I'm also not going to criticise them for falling a bit short after what they have all collectively and individually given to our team/club and at this moment they all play for a premier league team so are premier league players. They've earned their title for now.
Good post.
