v LAST MATCH
Another draw, another point as we await our first league win under Jos. Got the first goal as Nuhiu slotted home from the spot after Joao had been fouled. But we then let Barnsley straight back into it as they waltzed through our midfield and defence to equalise a few minutes later. Both teams had chances with Wildsmith being the more worked keeper as we couldn't get our shots on target. Probably a fair result but a result that helps neither team in our relegation fight.
THE MATCH
We are back at Hillsborough as we entertain promotion hopefuls Derby. Derby haven't lost in the league since the 28th of November, I think it is longer since we last won at Hillsborough in the league this season
. A point would be a great result as a win is looking highly unlikely. Thankfully Winnall cant play as he is injured, unfortunately Loovens & Butterfield probably will be CURRENT FORM

Cheers, Kev.
I am completely over this season. We got the point I expected at Dingle land. The sheep shaggers will tear us a new one though.
It's my Bday tomorrow and I thoroughly expect these clowns to deliver me a nice gift wrapped apathetic performance.

RE: The Owls v Derby SBC Match Thread - Owlkev71 - 12-02-2018
A few comments from the presser:
JL: Jack Hunt is an option for tomorrow
JL: Almen Abdi has been training one and a half week with the team and is on a good way. Gary Hooper is a couple of weeks away
JL: But Daniel Pudil is available, as is Glenn Loovens. David Jones will also be ok for the game
JL: Tomorrow we maybe also have a situation where we have players from the Under-23s
Tom Lees is due to play for the U23s today at Huddersfield.
Lees, O'Grady & Nielsen all starting for the U23s today.

ddddd
I dont thnk Butterballs can play anyway as it will be part of the agreement not to play against there clubs . Although Derby who obviously are laughing there bolloxs of at this loan deal will probably say its ok for him to play as it gives them an advantage
Im losing my pateince a little with Jos as he keeps picking Fox and palmer ? surely we would be better with either Hunt & Pudil ? or Hunt and Reach ? its not a question it actualy doesnt need answering i cant believe he keeps this up ?
Id also like to see stobbs given his debut as he cant play in the more important cup game
he did very well on saturday he sent in the best cross ive seen all season i thought wow a forward who can cross 
RE: The Owls v Derby SBC Match Thread - Owlkev71 - 12-02-2018
Lees played about an hour and also got on the score-sheet.
RE: The Owls v Derby SBC Match Thread - Imre varadi - 12-02-2018
For me i dont see the defence as a problem pudil venesa thorniley are doing perfectly
and nielson who im more impressed with and i would like to see him perminant with lees as our center back pairing for next season when we finally hopefully get rid of Loovens anyway lees will give us options but he wont be able to sort the goal drought ? we need Lee & fessi back to sort this and its not going to happen i realy dont think Hooper abdi or hutch can sort this out

Almost certain Butterfield cannot play in this game, just as Winnall wouldn’t be able to if he was fit. Imre I too would prefer to see Pudil go back to LB instead of Fox but until we get Lees back I think its better to play Pudil at CH. Unfortunately we don’t have another LB to slot in there and moving Reach back there would waste his ability further up the field.
I would play Joao and Rhodes up front, leave Nuhiu on the bench to come on and cause problems late on. He did score the penalty against the dingles but he did bugger all else!!
RE: The Owls v Derby SBC Match Thread - Imre varadi - 12-02-2018
I dont see Nuhui working from the bench unless we are a goal up ..that i doubt very much
i dont know what we can do upfront it all seems pretty xxxx useles unless we stick 3 upfront ? but then our defence will cave in 3-5-2 is they way forward for this season untill we have players to pick from but it leaves us with having to be 100% clynical which are not thats the ony option though im afriad as going back to a 4 man defence isnt right now

"as he cant play in the more important cup game "
Oh Lord. OMG. FFS. Give me patience against this............
Maybe he really meant "as he can't play in the unimportant cup game?"
There. That has to be it.
