Huddersfield (H) Match Thread

[Cropwellfox]

Give Yunus and casadei 45. If they aren’t dominating we’ve options to bring KDH on and also bring Choudhury onto the inverted RB with Riccy P stepping into the other 8 role. 

[ithuriel]

Hmm just thought, being January, he is giving some players a chance to impress before any signings are attempted?

[Ted Maul]

Their away form ain't so bad. Could be closer than most are expecting, particularly with the changes. Reckon we'll nick it late when KDH is on.

[Noahfence]

Haven’t been a fan of that attacking mid pairing but we’ll see. Big game for them & Cannon 

[Jobyfox]

So we’re down to our 4th choice striker and our 2nd choice midfield. 
 

This will be a good test of our squad. Hopefully Vardy is back soon or Cannon fires quickly. Also a shame that Praet seems to be a waste of a squad place at the moment. 
 

 

[Sol thewall Bamba]

Their bench is kids and their starting 11 isn't much better, judging by the comments on their twitter.

 

3 points only please. Cannon, Yunus and Fatawu to bag.

[Chelmofox]

Praet must be done. 
 

KDH hasn’t come out for the warm up. 

[Countryfox]

Would have had Ricky in midfield and Hamza at the back ..  Yunus and Cassidy together is just too lightweight ..  if they are aggressive in midfield we might suffer.  A Cannon goal would do him the world of good ..  massive confidence boost.  Hopefully it all works and KDH can have a well earned rest.

Didn't rotate against Rotherham people moan.

 

Casadei and Akgun start against Huddersfield people moan.

 

This place.......

[Tielemans63]

Time for Yunus to show what he's all about

No he is playing them as he has no choice

Bench suddenly looks a bit short. Bit harsh for Cannon to get his first start when there isn't really a sub for him if he starts struggling fitness wise. 

[hejammy]

Big game for Yunus, Casadei and Cannon, as long as 2 out of 3 do well, we'll be fine. Understand the rotation and this is a real test of exactly how good our squad is.

Let's hope the ref isn't officer Dibble

Yeah loads of people on here were moaning about the manager a couple of months ago. 

[Foxmeister]

Playing Huddersfield gives me flash backs, in 2013 I went to the away game only to realise I was a day late! I thought it was bizarre how quiet it was near the ground, checked my phone only to find out we'd won 2-0 the night before.

He's a young lad making his first start at home he will up for it, so that should pull him though.

 

Could see us playing a false 9 if needed.

Just noticed this too- name read out on team sheet. Really bizarre

Not the awful Casadei- Yunus combo in CM again. 

 

No Ndidi, Nacho or Daka on the bench. Have they left for AFCON already?

Yeah that attacking mid is a worry. One alongside KDH is fair enough. But both together is a bit flimsy.

We've been playing a false  nine with Daka!

[Legend_in_blue]

If our squad cannot trouble Huddersfield at home then I'm worried for the run of games during AFCON.

 

I see no reason to suggest that they won't which is why I find some cautious comments on here a little odd.  

 

This is the Championship, the drop off in quality within our squad won't affect us.

Clubs should be seriously compensated for this AFCON nonsense. They choose to hold it in the middle of the domestic season, they should have to pay the price.

Think the Afcon Nations would argue that we chose to sign African players,....we should have to pay the price.
