Derby County signed Tom Lawrence from Leicester City during the summer transfer window.
Derby County fans have slated Tom Lawrence’s performance against Reading yesterday.
Derby were surprisingly beaten 4-2 at home by Reading, and they looked completely out of sorts during the contest.
The Rams never really got going, and Reading made them pay with an excellent display.
Liam Moore and Sone Aluko both struck early goals to put the Royals into a commanding lead, and Jaap Stam’s side never looked back.
An error from Curtis Davies in the second half allowed Roy Beerens to add a third and although Johnny Russell pulled a goal back for Derby, Modou Barrow secured the three points for the visitors.
Chris Martin did net a late goal, but it was nothing more than a consolation on a disappointing day for the Rams.
Derby had been in good form prior to the encounter, but were not at their best yesterday – and Lawrence has taken a lot of the stick on social media website Twitter.
Lawrence joined Derby from Leicester City in the summer, but the Welsh international is still looking for his first goal for the club.
