Bradley Orr V Lloyd Dyer could decide the match. Lloyd Dyer skinned him alive twice last season when he played for Blackburn and Ipswich at the King Power
Surprised Wood's been dropped. Why is it that every striker we've had since Dickov has been a confidence player. When Wood's in form, you'll struggle to find a better striker in this league. When he's off form (now) he's ****e.
According to Craig Shakespeare, Chris Wood has a slight hamstring strain and will be out for 7-10 days So he is pretty much out of the Derby game and touch and go for Barnsley. Its not worth risking him as he will still have a very big part to play this season. Like Wes Morgan the other week, its just not worth the risk especially with the form of Vardy and Nugent knocking in the penos
I'd go 3-5-2. I think he needs to change something at HT, and I think 3-5-2 is a better option than 4-3-3 with the personnel we've got. Hope we can get Vardy and Dyer on the ball more often. First half has been quite frenetic, fancy we can still get back into this one.
Shame to concede in last minute, but to be fair, all in all a very good point away at Blackpool, I'd have taken that before the game, Terrific start to the season. Long may it continue
