Conor Doyle
Last pre-season Derby County took 19 year old Conor Doyle on trail and they were so impressed with his performances in pre-season friendly's that they decided to offer him his first professorial contract. Before the trail Doyle was studying at Creighton University so it was a life changing opportunity for him and he grabbed it in both hands.
This season Doyle has made 5 starts and 9 substitute appearances which the young American wasn't expecting as he said when answering a question about his involvement this season "more playing time than i'd every thought i'd get".
Not only has he been featuring for Derby he has also been away on international duty for USA U20 and made a big impact which impressed his American coaches.
He described his first season as "incredible" and said the only thing he could wish for now was his "first senior goal".
When talking about next season the 19 year old said that he wants to "push for a position in the team" and that Derby could "push for the play-off's".
I believe Doyle definitely has potential as some of his performances I've seen have certainly been better than satisfactory and considering his age he has a couple more years of development in him which will improve him as a player. His personality seems right to as he seems to keep his feet firmly on the ground and knows that he has to keep improving to play a more prominent role in the team.
In my opinion one for the future.

Tyson : Yes or No?
We all know that we have been strongly linked with the out of contract Nottingham Forest striker Nathan Tyson even more so as reportedly talks with him and Millwall have broken down, but would you be happy with this signing?
There are two sides to this story really. The first side is that he could be a decent addition to our current squad as his pace can get him past most defenders and he's not a bad finisher either. He's 29 too so he's not "young" and his experience would also be a good addition to our very young squad, even if most of his experience has been gained while with Nottingham Forest.
The second side of the story is well he's caused a bit of trouble during and after the games where Derby and Forest met to put it lightly. The main incident that has occurred is when Tyson started to wave the Nottingham Forest flag in front of the Derby County fans, it caused outrage amongst the players and the fans and since then there has been a hatred between many Derby County fans and the striker.
If he did sign i'm sure it would cause debate among many Rams fans and I would expect him to get a lively reception on his home debut, but if he can prove himself and become a key player for us then i'm sure many will forgive.

Derby In Europe
As the Champions League final approaches tonight where Manchester United will face of to Barcelona were going to look at Derby's memories of playing in Europe. Although our time in Europe may not be as lengthy as other clubs we've had memorable moments. An example of this is when the Rams beat Real Madrid 4-1 at the Baseball Ground and Charlie George got his name on the score sheet 3 times.
In 1972 the Rams also got to the semi-final of the cup after beating Benfica 3-0 at the Baseball Ground. Also at the Baseball ground Derby beat the Irish team Finn Harps 12-0 which proved to be the highest goal margin in a European game.
It looks like an eternity until Derby will once again play in Europe but one day it will happen I've got no doubt in that (even if it is through the fair play system) and when it does hopefully we will be able to go one step forward and win the competition. We can all pray.

Frank Fielding - England Number 1?
With Frank Fielding preparing for the U21 European Championships with England do you think he could one day become England's number 1?
The 23 year old goalkeeper has already had a 1st team call up in 2010 against Hungary and is now securing his number 1 spot for the U21 team. His two loan spells this season in which he impressed a lot of fans earn't him a contract at Derby to the relief of a lot of supporters as a lot of his performances were outstanding.
With Ben Foster and Paul Robinson retiring from international duty to concentrate on their club duty's is this the chance for Fielding to really impress during this summer? I believe it is, despite Joe Hart having the England number 1 shirt could Fielding mount a challenge for 2nd or even 3rd choice goalkeeper? Only time will tell but if the current England goalkeepers carry on dropping out like fly's you never know what could happen.

Chris Maguire Set To Sign Early Next Week
It looks almost certain now that Chris Maguire will join Derby County at the beginning of next week. It is expected to be on Monday or Tuesday as Maguire jets of on holiday on Wednesday. The on loan Aberdeen striker is only 22 and looks to be a real talent. He is most memorable for scoring a goal from the halfway line for Scotland's U21 team against Iceland. The Scottish striket has netted 4 goals in 14 appearances while on loan at Kilmarnock and looks like he is embracing a move to the midlands. In a recent interview Maguire said "It's massive, ask anybody associated with football," when talking about the possible move to Derby, he also added "Derby is a massive club and that is one reason why I have thought so hard about it". Aberdeen's manager also admitted that Maguire is likely move to the Rams when he said "It looks as though he'll go to Derby,".

The Rams chasing Burton goalkeeper Adam Legzdins
Paul Peschisolido has confirmed that Derby County have had interest in Burton Albion goalkeeper Adam Legzdins. The goalkeeper has also had interest from other clubs but Peschisolido says that Derby have shown significantly more interest than other clubs. However the former Rams striker isn't prepared to let Legzdins who won Burton's player of the year and fan's player of the year go for nothing and has stated "we have a value for Adam and until that valuation is met, he remains our player". Even if Paul Peschisolido did let the highly rated 24 year old goalkeeper go there could be trouble in getting him to leave the brewers as he recently stated that “I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t flattered by the interest, but I have no interest in leaving".
If Derby did manage to sign Legzdins then it would seem that he would come in as the Rams second choice leaving Bywater to find a new club and possibly Denney being the third choice.

| Adam Legzdins |
The Interview : "When a massive club like Derby come calling for one of your players, it is difficult not to let them go if they are interested," said Peschisolido.
"But we are running a business, we have a value for Adam and until that valuation is met, he remains our player.
"He has a year left to run on his contract and he is not someone we want to lose.
"There have been a few other snippets of interest in Adam but nothing as concrete as Derby's.
"We'd like him to stay as he was our most consistent performer this season and you never want to lose your best players.
"I am in contact with his agent to see if we can sort something out."

Tomasz Cywka - Key Player?
I can remember at the end of last season when we had young Tomasz Cywka on loan from Wigan thinking if we can sign him for next season he will make a major impact. In reality he has not done this due to injury's, squad rotation and possibly Nigel Clough's outburst towards the young Polish player. There is no doubt that we haven't seen anything from the player this season and possibly some of his moments have shown us Rams fans what is to come.
I believe if he has a good pre-season behind him and gets a good run in the team then he might be a key player for us possibly scoring 10 or more goals, I don't know if I'm expecting too much from the kid but I believe he can deliver what do you think?

A center forward the answer to the rams problems?
In a recent press conference Derby County's manager Nigel Clough has stated that Derby haven't had a "talisman up front" in recent years. It looks like the Ram's are targeting a player who can play around 40 games a season and will be a presence up front. In my opinion I can't see it being any one established as a championship player but I sure hope it will be someone who settles in quickly and makes himself a key element within the team.
Cloughs Interview : "We certainly missed having a talisman up front," he said.
Cloughs Interview : "We certainly missed having a talisman up front," he said.
"We never had a striker that played 40-or-so games over the course of the season who everyone knew everything about.
"Shefki Kuqi came in for a short time on loan from Swansea and did well, as did Luke Moore when he arrived from West Bromwich Albion.
"We thought we had Luke until the end of the season but he changed his mind and signed for Swansea on a permanent deal, and that was a blow for us.
"After that Steven Davies came in but it was a big ask for him to fill that role after six months out injured and Chris Porter was in a similar situation.
"We just about got through in the end, but it is area we are looking to address this summer, that is for sure."
Nigel Clough talking about his options: "At times we only had one or two strikers in the squad on a matchday and we didn't have the chance to change things around or give someone else a go.
"Already for next season we have Jamie Ward, Steve Davies, Theo Robinson and Callum Ball on our books, but we certainly need to be looking to bring in another two, if not three strikers."
