Derby County vs Aston Villa: Pre-Match Thread

[paul richard]

Derby are a better than average championship team, and Lampard looks like he's doing a decent job there.  Fair play.  But Barcelona or Man City they ain't.  At some stage we're going to post one of those sit-up-and-take-notice results and this could be it.  Tammy and Jack to star in Derby 1 Villa 3. 

[Deano's Mullet]

4-3 Yorke will get a hat-trick and maybe a long ranger from someone like.... Maybe Garry Parker.

[Duncan Shaw]

Can the title be amended to contain their new name please.....Frank Lampard's Derby

[WALTERS WARRIORS]

Hope BB is back to replace Hourihane (H better when he comes on late) to protect JG from any bookings. With a Bolasie start 0-1 and confidence high and ready for the scum in a Wembley like Villa Park  .....

[Drummond]

2-3 Abraham, Grealish, Chester

[Hookeysmith]

This could really be a statement of intent if we were to win

BB back in if fit, Whelan if not

Not sure what Bolasi has to do to get a start but I would try him over Kodjia

[Mossie Hennebry]

1-2 everyone will be happy enough to settle for a draw in a hard-fought game before Bolasie is released from the bench and hammers one in in added time!

[Bad English]

If offered before the game, I would happily take 3 points.

I work in Derby,surrounded by passionate Derby fans (and the odd Trickey) My life will be hell Monday unless we take something from here.C'mon Villa !!

[Villa Lew]

Providing Axel and Chester are at their best, we might get a draw, but not optimistic Derby are the form team of the league unbeaten in last 7 games.

[john e]

its great to know that whatever happens we will be going to attack
Give it a go and try and win the game

that's the difference from times before

[Three Spires Villa]

Think we will lose, but hope for a draw

We certainly need one away from home sooner or later. We always do well at Boro so could be that one but I having a feeling we'll win at West Brom.

Boro strike me as typical Pulis. Score first and you probably won't lose. Score twice and you'll almost certainly win.

I think the Stripey Filth are falling foul of their 3 at the back. They don't seem comfortable.
