Tough away game though given their recent form. Even a draw will move us up to 5th.

Can't write Derby off, still a good side and a tough away day. Would take a draw.

One of those games. Monday night, live on Sky, should do well but aside from the points they’ll probably be more up for beating us than we will be after all that’s gone on. No pressure on Derby either. No one expects them to stay up. I’d take a point now.

Two things we need to improve on.
1) Intensity. We often start half arsed, pick up a bit, and then back off again. Fitness thing? Or do we really want it enough?
2) Cover. Still an issue. Heard Kyle Walker talking about going forward knowing his back is covered. We don't do that.

2-1 Rangers get to 3rd Big Game
Then close down the top 2 there dropping points fast
Defence and Midfield critical in this game
Fast football like the last game they will not be able to keep up

They have been in the shit with points since start of season if they were playing without pressure and up for beating sides they would have more then 4 wins in 19games They’re average side going through tough time. If we really want to be challenging for top 6 or promotion come May then we should be coming away minimum of a point if not all three

And that's since their latest points deduction, so they are clearly very well motivated. Therefore it would be foolish to even slightly underestimate them, particularly as they're at home.

Their starting 11 is still very strong. They have no depth buy they aren't out of their league.
They'd be 19th, 10 behind us.

The leagues too tight to get that excited. We are 7th atm but only a fee points between a lot of teams. Not consistent enough to be going for top 2

If we have true aspirations of cracking on then we come away undefeated Played Luton and Huddersfield at times when if we lost they would go above us. Derby won’t be a walk over accept that

The only thing in danger is their defence from our attack force

Cant help thinking we'll get turned over here. I've been having similar thoughts. They've just started on a half decent run. The 2nd points deduction seems to have galvanised them somewhat.
