Derby County manager Paul Warne says he will not complain about injuries as he goes for a first away win of the season at Coventry on Wednesday.

The Rams have taken just two points from their seven away games so far this season and are still without Ryan Nambe and David Ozoh.

"I can't moan about injuries because I've got 25 players," Warne told 成人快手 Radio Derby.

"There are always going to be injuries, suspensions, lack of form and you've just got to shuffle the pack and try to get your best players out there."

Derby have been without full-back Nambe and midfielder Ozoh in recent weeks and Warne admits that has made things difficult.

"Ryan being out means we don't have an out-and-out defensive right-back so that makes it a bit more awkward and David was playing really well so he's a big miss," he added.

"Both of them will be welcomed back but as I know, when you get those two back there'll be two other issues."

Coventry have won their past two Championship games, scoring six goals in the process and Warne is ready for a big challenge.

"They've got one of the most experienced managers outside the Premier League," said Warne.

"I've played under Mark Robins and with him, they are a proper team with a really good age."
