There is no arguing we are basically a good team-- the opening of the season and today shows that. But we are unbalanced. The defence is short of two left-backs; one reserve right back and a true replacement for Bartlet. Sort that, and we stop the mistakes that cost so much. We have to play Vierra and Philips on the same team alongside O'Kane. Saiz, Lassoga, Hernadez and Alioski are more than good enough. We had a dip in form which exposed two flaws-- the weakness of manpower in defence and the intensity of a playmaker goalie. Maybe it could work in an established team. The mistakes and shortcomings should be placed with Orta and not Christensen. I was furious last night-- but slept on it. We will correct a lot bt Xmas -- but I think it is season over due to rank amateurish greenhorn upper management -- and that pisses me off.

Fuming again. First half we did what we’d done well at the start of the season - we pressed them and forced them into mistakes. It led to our goal, with Lasogga showing that given opportunities he’ll score. Second half we seemed to be sitting off more and Derby looked more dangerous.. The equaliser was a horrible sequence of events. You could see it coming - Roofe had not tracked their number 10 a couple of times but they’d not played it to him. This time though he gets it in acres of space and crosses in for their bloke to score, despite us having 3 defenders round him. Noel Whelan was going mad about it on the radio as I was driving home. He’s right - regardless of how their number 10 ended up with so much space, it was 3 v 1 in the box. TC then takes Roofe off (at least 15 mins too late, or for Rich 70 mins too late) and his replacement Sakho gives away the penalty. It looked a yard outside the box but it was an incredibly stupid challenge. Having said that it all stemmed from O’Kane and Viera losing the ball. Again, more questions than answers. I though Ayling was poor again,Roofe was a passenger, Alioski worked hard first half but did very little going forward, Lasogga scored but did very little else, O’Kane was described by Radio Leeds as excellent - I think he does some good things but gives away the ball away too easily at times and some of his decision making, especially overplaying in and around our box, is poor. Saiz looks good as always but after times doesn’t release the ball quickly enough, although to be fair if I was him I wouldn’t pass to Roofe either. I hate football!
