What the managers are saying

Frank Lampard (Derby):“They are organised, Karanka has a history of being a very good coach and manager, he organises his teams very well and he knows what it takes to get up in this Championship.“Against a team like Nottingham Forest, with the quality they have, and against a team in a Championship and against a team in a big derby, there will be moments when you suffer, moments when the opposition have opportunities.”Aitor Karanka (Nottingham Forest):I have heard people describe it as being the biggest derby in years. And that is good, because it means we are fighting with a team who has been in this position in the table for much of the last five or six years.For us to be competing with them, having worked together this season, is because we are doing something well.
