Mason 47 1,921 Posted August 9 Derby playing a very ambitious 4-1-4-1 relying on Palace loanee Ozoh as the single pivot. Struggling to get out for most of the half, but Blackburn have probably gone too early and have dropped off now. Derby also with ex-bin Jackson up front which portends poorly for them.

TheGoogler 604 Posted August 9 Watching Sheffield Utd v Preston. Arblaster looks a player from Sheffield Utd, but lucky for the goal. Not much between these teams. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wacky Waving Inflatable Arm Flailing Tube Man 4,615 Posted August 9 (edited) In other news, Gabby Sara made his debut for Galatasaray tonight in the opening match of the Turkish Super Lig. He came on as a 57th minute sub with Gala 1-0 down to Hatayspor, and inspired his new side to a late 2-1 win.

However I wouldn't discount the fact that Derby don't appear to have much of a Championship squad and set up very open. They will need to get smart right quick. Blackburn didn't have to really do anything particularly special Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael Starr 571 Posted August 9 Blackburn and Derby both bang average Championship teams from what I can see, especially when Blackburn lose their star striker next week (ideally before we face them) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Robert N. LiM 6,274 Posted August 10 (edited) BBC table has Sheffield Utd on one point after an opening-day win. Is that a glitch or have they had a two-point deduction? Hadn't seen that. Edit: indeed they have, according to Sky, anyway. Edited August 10 by Robert N. LiM Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ken Hairy 4,272 Posted August 10 Yeah they got a 2 point deduction but can't remember what for (presume financial), it all seemed to be done very quietly Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
