Midfield sat very deep but that was expected playing a fairly strong championship team
2nd half I thought we was much better, chased more balls down, got stuck in.. midfield had better shape.. I was shocked how well the make shift defence of Atkinson, Digby, Gibbens and CJ held up two half.. has most of derbys best chances came earlier on in the game
Still (like others) not convince at Atkinson.. hes doesn't pass forward and always play safe option and goes back to defence.. a wing back should be quick and attacking..
Davies looked a handful! very excited to watch him against some L2 defenders and finally Kahn, looked promising again, start slow but got into the game well and have a few moments of nice foot work!
Not bad for a 49 year old goalie. Even the Derby match report referred to him as Oliver...
