    I recall Adryan being referred to as a useles showpony recently, which was a bit disappointing as the lad was still finding his fitness for the Championship ... with this in mind we can have a look at two players in particular for next season:

    Adryan - on loan from Flamengo, Brazil's "Lost Boy" is starting to show his talent to the world on a decent stage ... there is no doubt that the "New Zico" can play, and it seems he is finally emerging as the prodigy Brazilians have predicted he will be from a young age ... in Brazil he lost his way, probably due to the pressure of the Zico tag, as well as playing for his boyhood club ... there is no doubt that against Derby he destroyed their midfield, keeping them occupied with his runs both with and without the ball ... it's no accident that the Rams took to trying to chop him in half a few times once they realised what they were up against ... now Redders has publicly stated that Adryan is his key player for the rest of the season, although this has probably widened the target on the kid's back ... Adryan has a lot going for him, and importantly he has a good temperament ... for me, Cellino should look to make his move permanent in January if the finances allow, because come end of season Adryan will be flooded with offers from across Europe, and we won't get to keep him

    Warnock - his contract is up at the end of the season, and the question is do we extend? The lad has certainly stepped up in recent weeks after seeming to struggle with fitness in the earlier games ... he has rescued a few points for us with last ditch tackles, and yesterday showed himself to be a natural leader ... for me it wouldn't be a bad thing to give him another season, even if it meant he was on the bench and mentoring young Charlie Taylor

    Ladies Let's see if he can keep it up before wetting ourselves shall we?
    It took him long enough, and we need him like this week in week out.

    I was confident we were going to win.
    Now back it up with 7 points from the next 9 and I will be a convert.
