Derby County v Aston Villa Post-Match Thread

[Legion]

Fire away.

[Dave]

Aren't we still playing?

[andyh]

If you can't win, don't lose.

[Toronto Villa]

Lacking luck and quality to take our chances. Been a lot of positives in the last two games, but we do need some additional help in new players to see the job through. Lots of work to be done yet.

[Tuscans]

Considering what we were saying about the centre of park before kick off the that was ok. We look more stubborn at the back, we'll have 2 better midfielders coming in and with a little more luck we maybe could of had 3 on another day.

Decent point on to the next.

[pauliewalnuts]

First half good. Second half less good.

Need more mobility and options up front.

[PaulWinch again]

Not a bad result really, but we badly lack pace.

[itbrvilla]

No real creative threat and zero threat up top.

[olaftab]

Can we just discuss the highlights please.

[ciggiesnbeer]

Probably a fair result but sod fair we need these points to win the title. We cant carry Gardner or Kozak again. Really like our central back two.

[Hampshire Villa]

Not the finished article, still some players to come, we will be alright.

[KRS]

2 points dropped or 1 point gained?

We were the better team for most of the game but struggle to create chances or finish off chances that we do get. Very frustrating, but its early days so with the current team this is probably 1pt gained...but in a few months time, it should feel more like 2pts dropped.

[DaveD]

That's nearly two hours of my life I'll never get back. Now I remember why I don't watch Championship football.

[Monty]

That was about as much fun as chronic constipation.

Nonetheless, they are looking more resilient. They just need to play in attack a bit more like they've actually, you know, met. And I'm not sure that sacrificing mobility for size up front is worth it.

[Jimbo]

Better than I expected, but we're still a long, long way from where we need to be.

And Gardner was atrocious.

Ditto Westwood.
