Derby on a bad home run. Three successive home defeats without scoring.

Dunk blocks a shot. Looks like he is MOM. Paynter heads away. FT 0-1.

A corner. Short one please! No Gus says a long one !

4 minutes injury time to hold out. And holding out it is.

Derby firing blanks with their best shot. No silly mistakes and we should be OK.

If Paynter comes on, I hope he does not give away a penalty in the last ten minutes.

Can't, Hoskins will not last the full game. Hoskins goes off.

Their defender gets a chance from a corner. Barnes was off. He usually watches this. Dodgy moment.

If Noone could curl his shots in, he would be our leading scorer.

Noone on, but which wing will he play on? I am not surprised Barnes came off. Noone on the right.

Ward now goes inside Calderon. This is worrying. Sub needed ???

It leaves a lot to imagination.

HT 0-1 I expect Derby (like Sunderland) think they can win this. What would be best for us if they take off a midfielder and put another striker on. Then they would hoof it even more, but with Wardy on the left they are possibly more dangerous on breakaways. An extra player in midfield would...

Derby pressing is causing Bridcutt problems. The problem is that he is so right-footed ??? Maybe ???

I agree with this. And I have been guilty of this. I no longer plan to put my predicted team on the Official Thread. BBC Sport - Derby v Brighton

Bellamy in the Liverpool team instead of Downing: BBC Sport - Chelsea v Liverpool No Kuyt either so Liverpool are playing without a winger.

Now is the time for possession football. To get Derby chasing shadows, if we can ???

I would start worrying if Calderon is beaten on the inside.

Wardy skins Calderon. Good play. But surely we should not lose the ball in midfield like that?

Derby pressing game and Gus wants Albion to play the passing game when all the options are covered by Derby. The usual reaction would be to hoof it if we have three strikers. We got caught in possession twice.
