@Kyledcfc18 Yeah so that’s fresh in your mind, the lad from Southampton Scienza, that was a great finish. There is plenty of defensive frailties at the back & to pick out just Ward isn’t fair. We concede a lot of soft goals away from home & need to strengthen again in that area.
@ScottGretton When he came into the team he was all those things & struggled, he should have adapted quicker like Murkin did. Not writing him off, but he doesn’t walk into the team ahead of Ward.
@DavidHu47410777 Yeah so that’s fresh in your memory, he’s done a lot of good defending this year & is easily one of the most improved players from last season, season before.
@BigDerbyMan@ScottGretton He’s taken along time to settle in, tbf so did Ward but I think the criticism is harsh & Johnston doesn’t walk back in the team.
@ScottGretton Murkin was able to show that within a few games though, Johnston before his injury showed little. I think what you’re saying about Ward is harsh, especially after majority of his time as a Derby player has been blighted with injury & he’s been a league one player much his career.
