Gotta imagine Jose gone at end of the season, unfortunately could make it a bad summer for us but we'll see

Happy for Lampard. Not easy for such a high profile English player to go into management nowadays.

Deserved the win and you could see he was shitting it when the penalties were going on.

Derby fans singing "You're getting sacked in the morning" to JM
&
Pogba & Co - up in the players section acting like homies dressed up in street gear. whatever happened to matchday suits and ties.

Pressure mounting on Jose.

On another (boring) note, has the ABBA penalty system been ditched this season then?

Yes they decided it’s best to stick with, the winner takes it all, well that’s the name of the game anyway.

Be pointless to sack him now , couldn't imagine they'd do that unless it goes full Chelsea with relegation looking possible

They are hoping he will resign first so they can avoid the payout. If he doesn't then they'll sack him by Christmas, or sooner if a suitable candidate is up for the job.

The way things are going they are not going to seriously challenge for anything this year, and I don't see why they'd be prepared to just write the season off - they are the biggest team in the country. Results have been poor, he has clearly fallen out with the star player and football is so bad to watch it is killing the brand of the club. Never in his entire career has he turned around such a bad situation so I don't see any reason to suggest that better times are just around the corner with him in charge.

Good stuff Fat Francis. Derby thoroughly deserved to go through.

I thought derby were very impressive.
Not just the quality of individuals
but the team play.
Lots of inspired one touch passing
and players finding space in midfield.
