#3 Ince-pired Derby County
Trending
It’s fair to say that Rams Boss Steve McClaren has turned things around in a very short space of time. His side has now earned 25 out of a possible 30 points since he has been at the helm and boast one of the meanest defences in the league.
His team have gone 5 games (over 450 minutes) without conceding a single goal and have won all of their last 7 matches. They now lie 5th in the table and must be strong favourites for at least a playoff place at the end of the season.
Their latest 2 matches, a 3-0 victory at home to Nottingham Forest and a 0-1 win away at QPR have demonstrated their consistency across one of the most challenging leagues in the world. The form of one player in particular, attacking midfielder Tom Ince, will no doubt have Premier League scouts queuing to get into Pride Park before the January transfer window opens.
Tom the son of Paul Ince, the legendary Man United midfielder is proving his worth to Steve McClaren this season and has 6 goals in his last 6 games for the Rams. The Derby Boss knows he has something special and said he was the difference during the 0-1 victory at QPR:
"It looked a draw all the way, but we got that moment and we've got one of those players that can get that moment in Tom Ince. He's got that defining moment in him. I've always found him a damn good player and he's proving it."
Can he and Derby continue their fantastic run?
