Does anybody remember how in the movie Goal 2 there was a deadly Arsenal striker by the name of TJ Harper playing in the CL final during the climax of the film?

There's definitely something in that I feel, can't be a coincidence that we have our very own TJ.

Looks like he'll be leading us to a CL final.

Miguel Azeez already on the bench. Burton dropped for McEneff surprisingly. No Holding. Clarke with a big test. Balogun over John-Jules.

Anyone who really wants to watch this - £5 on iFollow. I'm contemplating but Leeds w/Nketiah is tonight aswell.

Holding must be really close. Will probably play a league cup game after the break and then be in the squad for Villa hopefully

Yep. It'll be on derby countys website.

Lineup is

Hein
Olowu Omole Clarke Ogungbo
Burton McEneff
Tormey Smith-Rowe Coyle
John-Jules

Azeez and Matthew's on the bench. Big step up for both. Would like to see Azeez appear in the 2nd half. Balogun also on the bench. Will probably come on.

1 - 0 to Derby u23 by the way. Free kick from the mouth of goal caused by Burton's hand ball.

Derby County players are defending massively and ESR struggled in the first half.
Thought ESR was our best player coincidentally. Him and Coyle have been pretty threatening but the team have been laboured overall and they haven't been able to lift us enough. McEneff in particular has been pretty ineffective. Burton needs to play a bit quicker. This is a great platform for Miguel Azeez IMO, he should replace one of the two- probably McEneff. Having 4 CBs in defence isn't helping our overlaps.

Coyle and TJJ are far more effective than him.

ESR plays far up but can't really find the composure. His direct running produces not much.

I will like him to play a bit deeper and allow TJJ lead the attack this second half.
