Looks like Brereton left Diaz at home.

Still blighted by being light in defence.

Kinell the touch of Brereton and Gallagher is awful.

Personally I think he's been fantastic this half - that's the first poor thing he's done. 

[Roverthechimp]

TBF we did get control of the game after the change of formation. Buckley gave the ball away more or less centrally, Pickering slipped and Kaminski could/should have done better. Don't blame the formation but we really do look like we have a massive hangover from saturday...

Buckley also needs to be removed at half time. 

And replaced with ?

Mistake that "eventually" resulted in a goal apart he has played ok.

[Exiled in Toronto]

Well, plenty to get annoyed at there. Shame for Bucko as he was just starting to dominate when he gave up the ball. Hopefully, he’ll learn from that. Gallagher though, what a fkin useless donkey, couldn’t even get a job on Blackpool Beach. And I definitely wouldn’t have wanted to be in the trenches with Rothwell. I’d like to know why Ruffalo hasn’t been clattered - they have been bullying us.

The added problem to the back 3 is he keeps going with only two in midfield, so inevitably Rothwell and Travis get overrun, because obviously they do.

Quite correct midfield of ours is swamped

[BigBar]

It's been a very poor half, ragged all over the pitch. Nothing controlled or assured. No creativity or spark. Very very disappointing.

That touch that took the ball out of play was really poor but on the whole he’s been one of our livelier players. Nyambe going off and Magloire coming on was always going to be tough for us as well as going to the 5 at the back formation. Big ask now, snap your hand off for a point.

The bloke we bought in the summer that plays in that position? 

He doesn't give the ball away they don't score.

we always have a problem when tony has to think quickly after an emergency  sub,he has`nt got a plan and the team shape goes haywire

[Exiled in Toronto]

Personally I thought we had enough problems when we were 4-3-3, we were very lucky not to be three down before Nyambe went off

What is annoying is that in a pre match interview on Talk Sport rather than give BBD some credit for his hat trick on Saturday he opted to big up Gallagher's imaginary qualities saying he wouldn't have liked to play against him when he was a centre half etc.

Quite. He might have cracked a rib laughing.

did he honestly say that!!!!!!!!!mowbray  would have put gallagher in his pocket and imagine gallagher going up against keeley or someone like micky droy😂

[Wheelton Blue]

Buckley will always have a mistake like that in him due to his lack of physicality.

His mistake aside though, we could easily have been a couple down beforehand.

[LDRover]

I find it astounding that Gallagher can be a professional footballer with that first touch. He struggles with even the most basic of 10 yard passes to feet.

What have you got against Rothwell? We're a much worse team without him.

Huddersfield have smelt blood here.

I've zero confidence in that defence.

Yeah and the problem is, if Gallagher's fit Mowbray will always play him.

Which right wing back did we get ? Also - there were lots of mistakes besides Buckleys including Kaminski who could have done better.

No, mistake that eventually led to the goal and also a failure to close down the scorer. But yeh I don't think he has been so bad overall that he needs hooking yet.

It would help if he hadn't been stupidly wedged into one of the least suitable positions for him on the pitch...again.

Huddersfield look decent at the back. I can't see us getting anything out of this.

Rovers look a mistake away from 2-0.

[davulsukur]

Substitution bingo.

We have:

Edun

Clarkson

Poveda

Butterworth

1 down, need a goal, a spark, a game changer.

Whats the chances?

Clarkson and Edun on

Butterworth and Poveda getting splinters in their backsides.
