Ian Holloway: 'Millwall getting better'

Millwall boss Ian Holloway says he is proud of his players after they picked up a draw against Derby County.

Ian Holloway has heaped praise on Millwall's defence after emerging from their Championship encounter against Derby County with a point.

Despite plenty of possession, the Rams were restricted to just one shot on goal as the Lions finished with a clean sheet at the iPro Stadium, and Holloway believes that the Londoners were full value for the result.

He told reporters: "I'm very proud of the players for their performance. We got better and better and it was a deserved point.

"I put some fresh energy into the team. It will be interesting to see the stats in terms of possession and chances.

"We've got a long way to go but are getting better and better. I was delighted with our defence. That's the first time that back four has played together. I thought [Byron] Webster was excellent."

Millwall had come into the game with Derby on the back of a 3-1 home defeat against Birmingham City in midweek.
