Can anyone tell me why Jose played Ramires on the RW? Pathetic. I know we won and all but why is he played on the wing in a 4-2-3-1? Someone better ask him this because it was fuckin pathetic.

I'm happy for the win, but I have to know wtf he was thinking. Does he know we have top class wingers on the bench? Top class ones who haven't been getting playing time either.

Looks like @Shakez was right after all about Ramires being played at RW today. :lol: Though that move did not backfire today, it's still a nonsensical one given the options that we have.

Anyway, it was good performance overall. Did alright in the first half actually. Wasn't really troubled by Derby and created some decent and arguably enough chances to be leading at least 1-0 HT but not clinical enough. Stepped it up the second half and eventually got the goals we deserved. The last few minutes was a bit dodgy but job done.

And with this 2-0 win, we have conceded just 1 goal and kept 4 clean sheets in the last 5 games in all competitions compared to letting in 9 goals and kept only 1 clean sheet in the 5 games prior to that.

There is truth to that, really. Fair point!

Rotation (Hazard-)- Economical(kdb)? Is Schurrle having an injury? Mata - dunno.

I think it was an experiment. De Bruyne looks certain to be gone in January so not worth playing him, but that does raise the question of Mata. Against a team like today's maybe he wanted a hard-working, high tempo team and maybe he doesn't think Mata can do that.

The big question is where was Schurrle?

Very observant. That is the '09 away kit - I absolutely love the Yellow kit - No, but sometimes they call me Shaka (Hislop) :Goober:

I was thinking that, but I still thought it was a keeper kit so I wasn't sure. Shaka, brilliant! :lol:

I really enjoyed the game. We played some good football and created chances for our attackers to score.Sadly they could not convert but it was good to see that our approach remained the same for the whole game.

The first half was quite worrying for some people here because we failed to capitalise and made few errors but honestly I was quite confident that we'd win this one. Willian and Oscar were terrific and Hazard's second half cameo helped the attacking players gel with each other and pick out some smart neat passes.

Overall it was a fun match to watch and I am proud of the players and staff. I know the game was against a Championship side but still that should not stop us fans from praising the efforts and commitment of everyone who contributed to this win.

The FA cup should be taken seriously as its a prestigious competition plus it also gives us the opportunity to see a bit of our youth talents.
