Derby County boss Paul Jewell believes they're well-equipped for next season's Championship return.

"In Roy Carroll we have probably the best goalkeeper in the Championship," he told Derby's website.

"Alan Stubbs has done great, Robbie Savage is now starting to look the player we know he can be, and Tito [Emanuel Villa] is getting goals.

"If you talk about a spine, those four players down the middle is a good start and it will get better."
