Could Agyemang be the missing ingredient?

Derby have all the ingredients to bake something special, so why can't they get the results?

The first half against Preston North End was pretty forgettable for the Rams but the second half left more questions.

You could call it bad luck, but perhaps Rams boss John Eustace needs to question if something is missing. There's plenty of talent in both the starting XI and on the bench, plenty of balls in the box, but against Preston they were struggling to convert the chances of the second half.

American summer signing Patrick Agyemang looked very sharp off the bench and nearly found his first Championship goal with multiple decent chances.

He has only played two games, missing the start of the season because of a hernia operation, but maybe he could become a key part of a winning recipe in games to come.
