Sorry but we played well today. The better team won. We're not bloody Barcelona.
We did as well as we could , once they scored I couldn't see us getting an equaliser apart from the penalty claim being given.

Kuszczak 6 - Solid. Couldn't do any more about the goal.
Bruno 7.5 MOM - Brilliant performance.
Greer 4 - Simply not good enough. Too slow and doesn't seem to ever make a tackle. I think he got the message when after about his 5th mistake in about 5 minutes, fans started chanting Adams name.
Upson 7 - Solid as usual.
Ward 5 - Poor first half. Second half was better.
Andrews 4 - Shocking. Today showed we missed Briductt picking the ball up in front of the back 4 and carrying the ball forward. Every time we had the chance to go forward and drive, Andrews instead of running would just simply play it into somewhere where we weren't going to be able to go anywhere. Even the simple passes he wasn't able to complete.
JFC 5 - Too lightweight in a game that needed strong players.
Ince 7 - Machine once again. Bossed the midfield.
Orlandi 7 - Glimpses of magic. Didn't look quite fit.
David 5 - Didn't contribute much at all.
Ulloa 7 - Held the ball up and linked play well. Was constantly fouled and should have been awarded a blatant penalty. Constantly flicked the ball on, but there was no support whatsoever.
agree with everything you say about Andrews - looked totally outpaced, and apart from 1 ball in the 2nd half seemed unable to make the simplest of passes. But dont agree with your views on Greer - didnt hear any chants for AEA, and IMO I thought Ward was one of our better players today.
On todays performance dont see either maintaining a play off place, but there again it wast long ago that we played Leicester off the pitch
7 for all of them, except for the subs unrated and Lopez 6.
No one was influential, no one particularly bad.
On the other hand Grant and Eustace stood out for Derby.
Didn't go to the game yesterday, but I see a number of negative comments about JFC and some poor ratings.
From what I've seen of the lad I just don't think he is Championship quality. Gets knocked off the ball far too easily doesn't stamp any kind of authority on the game. All he's contributed is one very good goal. Bit like a candle ... burned brightly very briefly, but then quickly faded. Unless there's a very quick improvement in his form I suggest he goes the way of Barker and Dickenson.
