Rs had to work hard against a against Derby team that could have snatched it with one of their chances. This was Dykes best performance since his injury and one terrific second half shot stung the keeper's gloves. Having Thomas alongside may be helping him. Thomas always running, chasing and energetic. Unfortunately his touch and passing don't match his commitment.

Warburton may have hit on a formation for next year... if he's here.

Hard to pick a MotM. Possibly Chair or Dykes or Amos for two well taken goals (one disallowed).
