Well you would like to think the man in charge does.
I’m not even sure we have a strongest team. Maybe more accurate to say a not quite so weak one.
Even with all the injuries , whoever we have standing should be good enough for Derby surely :? .

You'd have to think so.

With the Zouma injury news, I'm now thinking they might have to score two.
With that in mind, DM needs to play Bowen and Antonio from the start. I'm surprised DM is still in the job.

That withstanding, I'm imagining a 1-2 outcome.

Ogbonna and Aguerd are good enough , even in a back three ( Moyes a back 5 ) including Kehrer or Johnson as a CB the defence should be enough , hopefully Ashby will get a run out at RWB :lol: :lol: :lol: .
About time Rice got a break and Downes came in , with Paqueta and Fornals in midfield

It’s not what you do it is the way that you do it.

True, but there's a full division between Rovers and Derby. Logically (but without knowing for sure), you'd have to assume that Derby pose less of a threat than Blackburn did.

We were at home against Blackburn. I’d say that evens it out as will be tougher away at a full house at Derby.

I understand your logic behind that comment, but I still think we’ll win comfortably with a second string team.
