Window Cleaner Posted 11 October, 2011 Share Posted 11 October, 2011 Apparently Barnard might be back for this one? He will be raring to go - I'd bring him on after 70 mins once we are 3/4 up. Absolutely no chance, won't even be on the bench unless we have injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sfc4prem Posted 11 October, 2011 Share Posted 11 October, 2011 I'd definitely keep SDR on the right, think he deserves a run of games, and is more likely to track back than Guly. That leaves the dilemma of whether to start Guly or DC up top. If he's playing 4-4-2 that is... Disagree. Guly is always tracking back and making challenges/putting pressure on the opposition..

ohwhenthesaints Posted 11 October, 2011 Share Posted 11 October, 2011 Davis Richardson Fonte Hooiveld Fox De Ridder Hammond Cork Lallana Guly Lambert Subs: Bart, Martin, Chaplow, Schneiderlin, Connolly Unfortunate for Holmes not to make it into the squad but the 5 subs rule is a real ball buster.

Jack Posted 11 October, 2011 Share Posted 11 October, 2011 Disagree. Guly is always tracking back and making challenges/putting pressure on the opposition.. Against forest he was all over the place when we lost possession, and we kept getting exposed at the back on both sides. Not so bad against brum or watford but we were never under as much pressure as we will be in tougher games. I rate him when we're in possession but he never busts his balls to help Richardson out when we lose it. Obviously we haven't seen much of De Ridder but he seems like one of those players who will get up and down that wing all day long. I think Guly is a bit more of a luxury player for games when we'll have loads of space and possession, and De Ridder for when we need to graft. Derby away is definitely the latter.

That leaves the dilemma of whether to start Guly or DC up top. If he's playing 4-4-2 that is... Going on the Watford game he offered very little. He was always looking for the hole in the needle pass/through ball which is rarely on. His involvement with general play and build up was for me not up to speed with the rest of the team - not really affecting the game enough. My choice would be Holmes even on the right and cutting such is our method this year. De ridder isn't ready yet for me - at least not to start.....

Badger Posted 11 October, 2011 Share Posted 11 October, 2011 Disagree. Guly is always tracking back and making challenges/putting pressure on the opposition.. At home perhaps, but concensus of opinion from many is that he is too anonymous away from home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shurlock Posted 11 October, 2011 Share Posted 11 October, 2011 I agree with that line up, but would have Hammond in instead of Chaplow - apart from one poor half at Burnley, Hammond has been excellent this year and he and Cork have really made us tick from the middle. Chaplow has been working really well coming in with 30mins left and running his legs off, closing down the oppossition and bombing on past tired defences - don't think that needs changing at the moment. Agree with this - same team v. Watford. Hammond and Cork have a good understanding -and Chaplow has been great coming from the bench. Possibly Chaplow could start for De Ridder but it would be slightly negative and we've sometimes missed a bit of pace away from home where teams hold a higher line and there are opportunities in behind them.

Saint_Jonny Posted 11 October, 2011 Share Posted 11 October, 2011 I've got a Leicester like feeling about this game. Think we'll go behind and that'll wake us up. Looking forward to it! With it being a sell out I imagine parking etc will be a nightmare so I'll aim to get there a bit earlier than I would normally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whelk Posted 12 October, 2011 Share Posted 12 October, 2011 Can't believe we are such favourites with the bookies. Derby 11/5 - for 3rd placed side at home is very rare against a side that has got 1 pt out of 9 in last 3 away from home. Still think we will win though!

pap Posted 12 October, 2011 Share Posted 12 October, 2011 It'll be the second game of the season for me. Never been to Pride Park before, although weirdly enough, worked about half a mile away from it and went past it every day. Train station is pretty handy for it, iirc. Couldn't pick a result. As others have pointed out - not so much wrong with our play - finishing has let us down. That said, I'd like to see an alert team before Derby get a goal.

dronskisaint Posted 12 October, 2011 Share Posted 12 October, 2011 Wish I was going but flying to Canada...for my twopence worth we stay as against Watford. Not sure if Connolly is fit but that might be the only change. I think we lose something if Cork and Hammond are not playing together...it's tough on Chappers to do so well and tough on Morgan and SDR and Guly too but if we're serious about promotion this season we have to go beyond personal ambition - I'm hoping that the players have got this message, they seem to be singing the same song. Brilliant to have these choices though...how different to when we las played in this league! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K,Billy's supersound Posted 12 October, 2011 Share Posted 12 October, 2011 i'd pick thought chaplow deserves a start and we played much better with hammond back in the team last time out. i think sdr is not as defensive as guly and would be better used as a sub with 25-30mins to go. Davis Richardson Fonte Hooiveld Fox Guly Hammond Chaplow Lallana Connolly Lambert hope for a draw. would be very happy with a point derby are a hard team to beat.

IMO of course This is nonsense. I've been to most games this year, home and away, and one thing you can't fault Guly on is the effort he puts in to track back. I agree, in away games, as an attacking threat, he's been quiet, but he's certainly no luxury player. If you don't believe me, have a watch of NA's press conference after the Watford game on Saints Player. I'll paraphrase what he says: "Look at Guly, comes from a different culture of football, but he was tackling back, chasing the ball down late in the game. Steve de Ridder will learn that in time, too". All that said, I'd go for the same team selection as Watford. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think you're both right - Guly does indeed bust a gut and is aware of his defensive duties but in doing so he can be quite undisciplined. He'll often get sucked into the middle or go out of position to chase down the ball, thereby exposing Richardson. Ironically, Guly is perhaps too eager.
