We all know he’ll be played there regardless. If it’s not Chester, it’s Bart, if it’s not Bart it’s bound to be Shawcross. I can’t get my head around it to be honest. It's simple Collins is our best right back We get more clean sheets with Chester in the side Of course Collins is better at CB however the team is better with him at RB rather than Smith. I agree when Chester is fit, he would be ahead of Collins, and it makes more sense to play him at RB than to drop him. But other than that, I would play him at CB over Batth and bring Smith into the team. He’s not the best, but I also don’t think he is as woeful as people make out. Just not £4m worth. I suppose it’s a case of us having a lot of defenders and finding the right balance plus MON wanting some experience in there as well.

Unfair on Bursik. I don’t understand why people want him dropped. Unfair on Mikel too. Just because he's the first name on MON's teansheet doesn't mean gawa should plead to remove him. I just think he was put into the team too quickly. Maybe this full week of training will have done him good. I don’t get the dislike for him by some on here myself, I think it’s a bit mental that people jump straight on him for being ‘wank’ 🤦🏻♂️ rather than thinking he just needs a break. MON should rotate between him and Cousins more in my opinion.

Fourteen goals scored in the last two meetings between these sides.
I fully expect a dour 0-0 or 1-0 for this one though.

Huddersfield hit the frame of the goal four times and had 25 shots last time out v Bristol City, they are probably the most open side in the division. But yeah you are part right.

No Mikel, Bursik, Vokes or Brown please in the starting XI. Predicting a win by a 2 goal margin Would love to see Clarke get a start today. Unfair on Bursik. I don’t understand why people want him dropped. I think he's a great young goalkeeper and a good upcoming prospect. But I think both Gunn and Davies are better goalkeepers at this stage and we'd concede less with either of these in the sticks.

Agreed he's not terrible he's just average. Batth has some excellent games and is a goal threat at the other end but is poor on the ball and has too many howlers in him.

If he performs badly over these coming months then fair enough, but his form has been great.

It could do to him what dropping did to Edwards.

Not a surprise re Bursik. Made a few errors and thought Davies back in possibly but maybe not 100%

I really hope Garry Monk is the Sky Sports pundit today. Forcing him to watch this miserable encounter will be sweet revenge for all the times he’s walked smugly across our pitch in his navy blue v-neck jumper after scraping a 1-0 win as manager of Birmingham or Sheff Wed.

Given the run we are on, a point would not be a bad result. Just dont fancy us today - hope I'm wrong obviously - but can see us conceding a few.

Two teams on a bad run i think home advantage will count today & i do not see us scoring. 2-0 Huddersfield.

Imagine a man with Keith Andrews’s hair and Danny Cowley’s beard. What a pundit he would be.

I’ve heard of about 3 of these Huddersfield players.
Looks an awful side on paper.

For anyone exiled in West Yorkshire and struggling for a stream etc, if you've got a digital radio or old fashioned twiddle-yer-knob radio, Huddersfield v Stoke is the live commentary match on BBC Radio Leeds. If you try to listen through the TV, you get the Bradford match for some reason.
COYMP.
