Take a bow son. Best player on the park today, by a country mile, and should be the first name on the sheet for Brum away. Special mention to Benda too.
 
Should have had a shot or put Paterson in when in on goal but otherwise agree excellent performance again.
 
Second MOM performance from him within a week.

He was absolutely everywhere fair play.
 
Agree completely about him being MotM for the second game running.
Really defended from the front and made himself available all the time, took his assist well and will learn from his two near chances about taking the shot that half step earlier.

Totally deserves to be starting on Saturday against Brum.
 
Loved his energy n commitment today. Was proud of him being one of us.
Keep it going kidda.
 
He has the energy, drive and skill that we’ve been crying out for.
Outside bet for the World Cup squad?
 
I was surprised to learn this afternoon that he is born and bred Derby boy. Just assumed he was a local lad.
 
All of the above plus ATTITUDE.

We’ve got other members of the squad who should take a leaf out of his book.
 
Excellent performance from Ollie plenty of movement and work rate exactly what we’ve been lacking with the likes of N’Tcham etc who are ‘luxury players’ who can’t be arsed …. Well done young man YJB 👏👏👏

Probably a bit too late for that. Feels like there a few too many others looking for places in that part of the pitch, plus Brooks has started playing for Bournemouth's reserves and will be looking to get in. Still, works out for us as he should be fresher for the second half of the season.

His old man was Kevin Cooper who played for Cardiff. I assumed ollie was born here while his old man lived here.

Was thinking this myself… keep this up and I wouldn’t be surprised

Harry Wilson is a massive doubt for the World Cup
 
Re, World Cup, Colwill and particularly Harris have done fackall in the Welsh shirt but regularly make the squad. If Oli can keep up this form, get a game or two in the Nations League and take his chance you never know.

I have wondered this myself. He was born in 1999 but his father didn't play for the scum until 2005! So not sure how Oli ended up in South Wales
 
Not sure how he qualifies for Wales either but he plays for the U21’s so must have a link some how
