• Rooney’s side out of bottom three despite Wilshere debut
• Kyle McFadzean sent off as Coventry lose at Reading

Wayne Rooney secured his first win as permanent Derby manager with a 1-0 victory over stumbling promotion chasers Bournemouth.

Krystian Bielik’s first-half strike proved the difference as the Rams moved out of the relegation places. The Cherries lost further ground on the top two, having won just one of their last six league games.
