Match Thread - Huddersfield Vs Reading - Sponsored By A Right Stuffing

[Top Flight]

Team: Al-Habsi, Gunter (c), Obita, Moore, Blackett, Williams, Kelly, Mutch, Beerens, McCleary, Grabban.

Subs: Jaakkola, McShane, Evans, Swift, Kermorgant, Meite, Popa.

If Evans and McShane were starting then I'd feel confident that we could get something. With Mutch and Blackett in the starting eleven I only see the points staying in Huddersfield at the end of the night.

[Pepe the Horseman]

Gotcha.

[TBM]

Wells WILL score tonight.

That's the only thing I am certain of

I'm from the Ady Williams school of thought here. If one of your best players is fit to play at all, then put him on from the start and see how he lasts. If he's not fit to start then he's probably not really fit to come on at any time, so don't waste a space on the bench.

Wells WILL score tonight.

That's the only thing I am certain of

Surely you can also be certain that he will take at least one dive tonight.

It's a fact of life that Nakhi Wells scores against Reading. Even if we signed him he'd probably find a way to score against us.

[Steve_Upper_West]

Hmm, not far off how I would have gone. Evans would have been in obviously

Guessing it will be Gunter at CB, Williams at RWB

At least we have plenty of options on the bench if it goes wrong

Yes we may need another triple substitution to get anything here....

...when is Evans going to get a start in this team !!

Anyone know where I can get a live stream of the match tonight?

Prediction: 0-2

9th minute: Mutch scores
82nd minute: GMac scores

Not confident but I'm ready to be surprised.

[Ian Royal]

I'm glad both Kelly and Swift aren't playing in the same XI. Midfield seems a bit more solid.

Is Mutch significantly stronger defensively than Swift?

Could easily be something odd like 3 at the back with one of Williams / Beerens / McCleary at RWB, one in midfield and one upfront

Think it was mentioned in ' on the Box thread' ?

[tidus_mi2]

Already sounds like it could be a long night, Huddersfield have started strongly.

Mutch didn't do anything defensively or offensively against Brentford. I can no longer remember if he played against Barnsley. I didn't notice him if he did.

Dellor "Lewis Gra-ban"

I thought it was pronounced "Grab-an"

Dellor "Lewis Gra-ban"

I thought it was pronounced "Grab-an"

As did I, Mick is pronouncing it the same way too, it's really bugging me.

Yup me too

Making him sound foreign.

I have managed to get it on 5 live sports extra. At least I can hear the game.

They are saying that Jaap Stams head is extremely shiny under the lights and that Reading are starting to get a foothold in the game after a strong Huddersfield start.

He had a long range shot that the Brentford keeper had to save.

[Ian Royal]

I'd like to think they've spoken to people at the club and know what they're talking about.

Of course, that would involve Dellor being competent.

And should have given away a penalty wasn't it?
