    Doncaster Rovers 1 Derby County 1

    The second game of the night with a different set of starting 11 set out to the Keepmoat Stadium, where it finished level 1 goal a piece with goals from Derby skipper Richard Keogh with a fine header and then Tommy Rowe for the host.

    This game ended Derby's 3 game winning streak on the night in pre-season but remain unbeaten going into Germany on Saturday to face Kaiserslautern.

    Again I know it's only pre season

    but here we go....

    We are not getting in behind from wide

    Nugent did nothing
    Bennett did nothing penalty apart
    Love to see Weimann actually run at a defender on the outside and cross sadly don't think he has it in his locker
    Looked fit though

    Butterfield he'd be a good player if he would only look forward more

    Pearce no confidence in his own ability when players close him down

    Hansen not his level can't get forward with any contribution

    The Rowett way of getting the ball forward with pace and speed non existent

    Hopefully the other game showed more promise

    Oh Man of the match 36 year old James Coppinger

    Tell you something Mista, we have big problems within this squad of players. Since our only players capable of getting pat someone have gone Ince and Hughes we look abject to say the least

    Eddy just hoping we atoll bring a couple in because we definitely need it I know its only pre season but Nugent really pissed me off he's on £20,000 a week and all he did was laugh and joke we the opposition defenders I think when people have made the effort to travel to a friendly match they at least deserve a bit of effort

    From an abject display at Doncaster
    put in two quality players with a bit of class Huddlestone and Wisdom, we look a different team

    Thought the back five looked solid

    Just need an attacking playmaker to provide us with something different ,hopefully this week

    Worryingly though Eddie, if Huddlestone gets injured, we go back to abject very quickly. Definitely require more attacking options.

    I did like one thing different in our shape - when the centre backs had the ball, the full backs went up the pitch and Huddleston dropped in to make the 3rd man... a massive difference to our last 5 years where the ball would flow across the back 4 until either someone passed it to a full back under pressure, Pearce lumped it forward and out, or Keogh made a run. Much more positive now.

    The games up until last saturday were all about gaining match fitness! At Doncaster it was a mixed bag of players, so how one can judge anything from that is puzzling!
