Six consecutive Championship defeats have dropped injury-hit Derby County into the relegation places for the first time.

Not only that, but speculation that defender Eiran Cashin - one the Rams' most impressive performers in recent seasons - will be recruited by Premier League club Brighton are louder than ever.

It reads like doom and gloom for Paul Warne's Derby side who have been booed from the stands during their miserable run in recent weeks.

BBC Radio Derby commentator Ed Dawes has written of a "downward spiral that shows no sigs of abating".

But do you agree?

Derby midfielder Ben Osborn spoke defiantly after the defeat by Cardiff City on Saturday, saying the Rams have what it takes to avoid the drop.

Is he right? And if so why?

And if not, what will it take to keep the Rams in the division?
