Purely a money move that one (when isn't it so much now).
Truth is Derby haven't improved much on last season. Watching Huddersfield v them last night, they allowed Derby to win that match. Huddersfield had bags of pace and had the beating of Derby, whenever they played a threaded ball. Yet they decided not to and spent a lot of time looking at best like a top L1 side. Their shape was poor too. Pritchard was sucked in centrally way too often when there was bags of space out left.
I don't see Derby making top six. They're throwing a load of money at it (again) on the hope of going up. Yes Lawrence scored an exceptional individual goal but the first was a gift.
No doubt Sky will now spend a season wanking over DCFC, again. Now that Rooney will be joining. Fuck me they can spend the next five months building it up "Rooney's Return" or some other bollocks.
Yes, I dislike DCFC.

Lots of striker moves today. Should free up some options and allow transfer “chains” to complete.

I don't know mate. Likely lots of "add-ons" that will favour the Rooney team. Mel Morris has done this to expose Derby to a more worldwide brand. He's a good businessman (person/whatever) and I imagine him to either sell up or sell a large chunk of the club if he manages to get Derby back in the Premier League. I just don't think they are as good as Leeds, Bristol City, West Brom, Fulham, Middlesboro, Cardiff and more. Having said that...if they did go up I only see them being a yo-yo club. Don't get me wrong, the set up at DCFC is Premier League ready but there is something that just isn't falling in to place because a club with that set up should be aiming for autos each season, not sneaking in via the POs.

You would imagine so. Will be interesting to see what kind of fee is involved.

I wondered why he wasn't in the QPR squad on Saturday. He was an ever present for them last season.

Bit over £3m apparently, so not big money - 12 months left on his contract. Although other sources saying actually much less as QPR need him off the wage bill. So who knows.

Didn’t Power do a sneaky bit of business by including him as the nominal makeweight alongside Gladwin, so that we wouldn’t have to pay Spurs what would have been due on Luongo? Doubt he can pull off a sell-on again in those circumstances.

Surprised no Prem club would be interested? Too much of a risk due to injuries?
