I feel it'll be one of those nights myself too. Even if you manage to get a couple you'll be fine tomorrow, adrenaline will get you through then you'll crash win or lose.

LakotaDakota Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 Not worried at all this year. Easy 3-1 victory after letting them back into it a little to make it a bit more interesting at 2-0 up 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you’re bored you can google £100 million strikers and work out if they’ll fit Dean Smith’s system for next season’s assault on the PL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure Derby will love to see him sitting the game out so we can concentrate on not giving away goals . Hourihane must start , hes scored more goals against them this season than any other player in the league.......(that's a guess) Whelan played 90 mins at DM when we beat Derby 4-0 at home. Hourihane was playing as one of the more advanced midfielders, where we currently start McGinn and Grealish, so I don't see this as an argument for starting Hourihane, unless you want to drop McGinn or Grealish? In the 3-0 game, he did play as a deeper midfielder (although the lineup is listed as a 4-4-1-1 / 4-2-3-1 with Hourihane and McGinn both sitting - not sure if that's correct?). However, Derby were missing Mason Mount, so we didn't have a Number 10 to worry about. With Mount fit, Derby are dangerous through the middle, and it makes sense to play a specialist DM. We have enough talent (Abraham, McGinn, Grealish, El Ghazi) to score goals. I'm more interested in having a good shape, especially in the first half, as we try to get a handle on the game. A good shape isn't just a negative defensive thing. It's also what allows full backs to overlap and centre mids to overload the box without being exposed. Whelan's game is to give other players that freedom. Hourihane's natural game is more selfish. Remember DS's catchphrase: "be a good team mate". It's about winning the match, not individual stats. Hourihane is still a quality option to have on the bench - either covering the attacking mid roles, or coming on for Whelan if we need to unlock the door.
