It had to be expected but with such a super win against one of the form teams in the Championship, there are four players in this rating session who have hit an average score of eight or above.
It seems the team as a whole is improving from week to week and there were no ratings of less than seven in the starting eleven.
Surprisingly Frank Fielding was this games lowest rated player with an average score of 7.13, still a very good average as we have had over 100 ratings from you the Derby County Mad readers.
Tomasz Cywka was one of this weeks highest scorers. His performance earned him a superb 8.11 out of 10 stars. Just beating Cywka was Mr consistancy these days, Kris Commons. His score of 8.29 nearly earned him the Derby County Mad player rating for this game but top of the pile this week was Rams midfielder, Paul Green. His powerful display at the heart of the Rams midfield was rewarded by you the fans with an average of 8.31 out of ten.
As a footnote it was great to see Miles Addison get ten minutes on the field against Portsmouth. He came out top rated substitute, with 6.17.
