Huddersfield (a) pre-match thread

I can't see him starting Sane. Very wasteful tonight after setting up the first goal, imho. I don't think there was any exchange between him and Pep when he went off, so I think he'll be on the bench getting the same treatment Walker got when he didn't put a shift in. Mahrez will start in his place.

Not sure what game you were watching but when Wolves brought on Traore he tracked back to challenge him at least four times in the 2nd half , he's a creative player who takes his man on , he will not beat his full back every time , hence his "wasteful" element of his game is acceptable because he invariably scores or assists in every game he plays. Best winger in the league at the moment , if he is demoted to the bench it will be to give him a breather , not because Pep didnt give him a hug when he was substituted.

Mahrez hasn't yet done anything to deserve a start outside of the cups

Andrex Marriner crap ref so far up his own ass

Ref shouldn't be a factor

No need to change things around for this one, full strength team to get the job done

All league games will be full strength teams -whatever that is though may differ game by game

Whoever Pep picks for the game, it will be on merit, if Mahrez is selected, it is because he deserves to be

...so on the bench, then.
Anyone know of a decent Belfast bar that shows the footy?

A good chance for some players to have a 2 week rest before a hectic period I'd hope he shuffles the pk a bit.

Time to get KDB on from the start

Did you forget to take your medication? Ridiculous comment. No pack shuffling for crucial league games irrespective of the quality of the opposition. Domestic cups, yes.
