Agree on corners much better than what we've doing with them lately
I see him do it a lot, did it again there but on the first one he even slowed right down

Ball just won't come down clean for us...always there's a little touch or deflection saving Derby right now

Love the way Shackleton drives into the opponents box we have no one else who does that.

Ayling does brilliantly to beat two men, cross can’t be forced home and Derby clear.

Phillips penalised harshly, not sure what he could do there.

Beautiful stuff from Bill. If only Klich was following up.

Finishing up the half strongly.

HT 0-0, grew in to the half and were the better side overall, no real saves for either keeper but we’ve had some good situations.

Roofe just needs to find his finishing touch again and I'm certain it'll uncork the confidence bottle for the whole team. Just need to keep this up.

Happy enough with the first half performance. Absorbed the early pressure and have been slightly on top for most of the half. Neither keeper troubled though, but we have done well enough to force a few corners.

A decent half, we certainly quietened their crowd.
Holmes looks their main danger, always looking to run at us.

Better side by a distance, Klich and Pablo twice responsible for good moves breaking down but nothing is bouncing for us yet. Beradi, Ayling, Klich and Dallas outstanding right now

Is it just me or is Roofe more of a steadying hand for the team than Bamford? Others seem to feed off his energy and work rate and generally look better with him up front. Or is it really just me?

It would be nice to sneak a goal but another half like that and I'll be very happy.

We look the better side, need to get to the byline a bit more, happy with the first 45

No change there then. The needles stuck again.... dominated but no end product infact it will be a surprise when there's a shot that actually makes the keeper work. I suspect that Derby will need 1 half decent chance and they'll score....sooo predictable.

Which question do you want me to answer first? :)

No, it's not just you, and yes Roofe adds what you say.

He and Berardi were great in the first half.
