Derby boss Davies happy to see Barnes in action

One highlight for Derby from Saturday's thrashing at Arsenal was the return of midfielder Giles Barnes.

"Barnesy is probably another week away but I felt the last 15 or 20 minutes would be crucial to get him ready for the games coming up," said Rams boss Billy Davies.

"It's great to see him back but I genuinely thought I wouldn't put him in. Now he'll have another good week's training ahead of the Bolton game."
