I love him in this interview talking Dutch. Joey Barton did the same talking French.

My favourite Derby related quote is Nigel Clough pointing out he was sacked as Derby were 14th and just lost to Forest - whilst reducing wage bill enormously
Having inflated the wage bill several times over and spending anything from £100m to £150m re transfer fees and wages in the following five years ... Derby are now 10th
If their chairman was 'seething' as reported, then McClaren is surely gone before the next game.
Would be fantastic if a new manager could knock Derby into shape before they play Huddersfield.
In what other industry can someone who repeatedly demonstrates mediocrity, get the sack, get a pay off and then get another highly paid job to do it all over again?
The mind boggles.
Blimey, who knew eh?To quote a Derby friend of mine:
"Some of McClarens tactical decisions are ridiculous.
Seeing as everyone who manages England gets labelled an idiot, I did have some sympathy with Mclaren. However his team selection on Friday was dire.
I know Ince has his fans I am not really one of them, I am not saying he shouldn't have started, but I do think that Hughes, Bryson and Russell are all good players. To see none of them in the starting line up was a big plus point for me.
Our first goal was quality, but when you look at the "challenge" that De Sart made on the edge of his own area, I would have taken him off there and then and given him a one way ticket back to the North East. He looks to be a decent passer of the ball, but lightweight doesn't begin to describe him.
They'd have been promoted by now with Clough, maybe even with Clement.
Obvious what the problem there is.

Big fan of Hughes but he was absolutely atrocious when he came on so there does seem reason behind leaving him out.
Very different to when he came on in the opening game.
