Thought Dozzel, Chair and Austin all very good but Wilock takes it for me. A threat all night and that goal was outrageous

Everything good was linked to him. He's just getting better and better. Austin was much improved, but Willock takes it

thought Willock was superb as was Charlie but for me Uncle Albert got the vote

the back 3 of Dunne dickie and barbet were a dream also as was Gray when he came off the bench

looking at the votes already i think uve gone for the obvious option if you get chance re-watch the match and tell me if Albert puts a foot wrong? he even plays like a full back now as well as a winger he carries on like this he will be player of season for me im being deadly serious too

thought Dozzell did ok but hes played better in previous 2 or 3 than tonight in my opinion

felt Odubajo played well too when he came on

Albert's crossing as daveb says wasn't the best. Since he's been starting his crossing boots have evaded him. It's strange because when he was a sub we all agreed he was the best crosser of a ball at the club.

Look at the crosses Willock has put into the box in the last 2 games; Albert is in those same positions numerous times but just seems to hit and hope a bit.

He did play well though. And somehow he seems to have found some of his old pace in his locker.

I thought Barbet was verging on a nightmare rather than a dream! It's what makes football a great game that we can all see things differently. His passing was all over the place.

Barbet is normally very reliable but last night he couldn't put a pass together and it was his initial mistake that led to the Derby goal.

Albert did very well again getting up and down the right flank. The wing back positions are now vital to the way that we play and Adomah has fitted into the ringt wing back role superbly.

The player for me who was MotM was Willock who gets better by the game and has developed a tremendous understanding with Chair. One minute you see him out on the left combining with Illias and then the next minute he is making a run through the middle to score or attacking up the right to provide a cross that results in a goal.

I think WLS got it spot on: Barbet's performance was below his usual high standard, as was Dozzell's and Johansen's. It is unrealistic to expect players to perform always at their best (after all they are only human), and that is why Warburton has subs to call on. I see this as another learning season for Dozzell as he is moulded into the replacement/deputy for Johansen, with Field or Amos alongside them (depending upon the opposition). Up front I am hoping that Austin has overcome his problems and Gray has discovered his mojo again. Then it will become a great battle between the strikers to win a starting place! Anyway, it was Willock for me as MotM!!

I've watched the goal back about 50 times (never gets old) and I eventually spotted Chair and his reaction is maybe worth talking about. Everybody else goes mental, but Chair just walks back to the group, you can see him in the background.

Was he tired?
Was he annoyed he didn't score himself?
Is there something off with him?

dont think its tiredness because if you look back at when Willock scores the equaliser he looks almost upset

im sensing he likes all the plaudits and with Willock he seems to be getting more than Chair these days

as for Grays goal thats going to get plaudits too

me thinks Chair might be a little pre madonna

not gonna turn on him just yet but im glad you brought that up North West

It's just a strange reaction to 1) a last minute winner for your team 2) a goal like that being scored right in front of you

Gray rips his shirt off, Dieng runs 60 yards to leap on top... Chair just strolls back like nothing happened. Slightly odd!

He is definitely not a pre Madonna , I have met him, spoke with him and all of his interviews suggest he is a down to earth bloke wanting to get to the top of his game. (Yes you've guessed it I am a huge fan)

The ball to Gray came back of the post form the Illias's header, I think its more likely he was cheesed with himself for missing the opportunity as well as the one earlier in the game.

Lets not read anything in to these situations and just enjoy the win and having a team that can still get better.
