Liam Rosenior, one of our own!

[One Teddy Maybank]

Excellent news, hope he does well.

 

[BluesRockDJ]

So he's left Rooney/Derby, obviously.

 

[keaton]

I hadn't seen Critchley had left. Odd move, moving to be a no 2 and to Gerrard who must be in the top 5 to be sacked first

 

[Seagulls over Essex]

Lovely guy. Bumped in to him and his family in a pub after away game at Arsenal a few years back and had a brief chat. Wish him well wherever he ends up.

 

[Coxovi]

Great to hear and hope to follow him as one of "our" managers. Agree he appears to be a class act.

 

[SeagullinExile]

England U21 is a terrible job. Would be a big mistake for him to take that. Most players aren’t arsed, many will be playing week in week out in PL or FL, and going in the U21s is bit of a comedown and they’d want to be in the Senior squads.

Worked out ok for Southgate.

 

[Stumpy Tim]

He used to live across the road from me. On Halloween he was brilliant with the local kids who all got sweets, signatures etc. He was, and will be, fully involved with the local fans. I truly hope he's successful as he came across a genuine guy

A nice little piece on Liam Rosenior's Derby County.

“I came from Brighton, and a long time ago Brighton were at the Withdean [stadium] and their fans were going on marches to keep the club alive. It was exactly the same position at Derby, with fans going on marches to keep the club alive … nothing would make me happier in five or 10 years’ time to see Derby in Brighton’s position.”

I hope he is very successful. I have so much respect for him, such intelligent young man (young to me any way). I will watch out for Derby’s results now.

My favourite prospect for a future Brighton manager. Bruno and Calde in his team for the ultimate right wing back management unit (also my modern position but don’t think am being biased, just Brighton legends with heads screwed on).

 

[BrightonCottager]

By technically, I meant not from Brighton, or indeed Sussex

Him and his dad are considered 'one of our own' by a lot of Cottagers.

My favourite prospect for a future Brighton manager. Bruno and Calde in his team for the ultimate right wing back management unit (also my modern position but don’t think am being biased, just Brighton legends with heads screwed on).

I would suggest that it would be a good way into the future before these two could be considered viable options to manage the club. Neither have had any managerial experience at any level, and have only fairly recently started their coaching careers.

Great players and club servants yes, but managers? that's a long way off.

Good luck to Liam today, in charge of Derby at home to Oxford.

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

Good luck to Liam today, in charge of Derby at home to Oxford.

Amen to that.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Good luck to Liam today, in charge of Derby at home to Oxford.

Started with a win, and in the play off places.

 

[Munkfish]

Good win and a first start for Hayden Roberts today too.

 

[mikeyjh]

Good win and a first start for Hayden Roberts today too.

Aye, delighted with that - Derby have had a very short pre season, awesome. As predicted by your resident Ram, Roberts played left back, Oxford clearly targeted that channel first half, didn't work at all, abandoned second half. Roberts looked comfortable, solid have.

Pleased for you and Liam. But I do wish he would wear socks

Cheers, likewise Roberts has sock related issues, Durant wear his up to the knee, just above the shin pads, almost Grealish esque.
