Good to see you stick by your guns, even despite him being our best player so far this season. In your view he'll be an expensive wage that produces nothing regardless of his performance on the pitch. read the post again..if we drop into a poorly organised, dull, defensive set up Whitehead will be an expensive waste of a wage.. as this appears to be powells default setting then I think it might well come to pass.. Whitehead without powell running the show might be a different story... the best player so far this season is an opinion, same as all the other opinions on here.. Ok, I struggle to decipher what it is you're trying to say at times! Look, I'm sure everyone would prefer to see Whitehead in the middle with someone more attacking minded, as opposed to the combo with Hogg we had at the start of the season. I'm pretty sure Powell would too, as he got Huws in and has played him alongside Whitehead at every opportunity he's had. Clearly it's my opinion that Whitehead has been our best player so far, but I'd be interested to hear someone make a case for another player.

I don't think for one moment we could get him, but James Wilson never left Man U did he after they said he could go on loan? I'm guessing he'd cost and it's put everyone off.

I'd send Ward back. He's better than Hudson but in the grand scheme of things he's made sod all difference. Still no clean sheets and conceded 3 on saturday. We need a striker more than we need Ward

We sold 2 of our best midfielders, loaned one out, sold our number 1 keeper and the loaned out a defender. Rather than replacing the sales, we loaned in 3 midfielders, a defender and a keeper. Nobody else to blame here but the club. What's your thoughts on the replacements, do you think they have improved the match day squad? Not so far. I'd rather have Butterfield, Coady and Lolley here than Carayol, Huws and Paterson. I'd rather have Smithies than Steer. Ward is proving useful but only on 1 month loans. When can we recall Wallace?

In your infallible opinion of course. I see the club in limbo with a Chairman who wants out, a weakening squad losing value and Championship survival chances lower than ever. We can't all think everything is rosy, it would make for dull debate.

Nobody else to blame here but the club. So we replaced 2 midfielders with 3 midfielders, replaced a defender with a defender and replaced a goalkeeper with a goalkeeper. How long have you had this hatred towards Huddersfield Town and aren't you just a little bit embarrassed by the crap you talk? No, We sold 2 midfielders and loaned one out, then replaced with 3 loans. (3 in, 3 out) think about it?! We sold a keeper without replacing him (as Allison doesn't look like Powell has faith in him) and had to get an emergency loan in. We loaned out Wallace and then had to get a loan in when Hudson got injured. The point I'm making is that we are threadbare with players who Powell deems good enough for the first team, yet are still loaning out several first team players, including Lolley and Wallace. One of our only two signings was a striker, who we loaned out straight away. We currently have 2 who we can select, neither of whom seem to be able to find the net. I don't see things as going too well at the club at the moment and am frustrated by decisions being made. That's my opinion, we're all entitled to one.

Do you think we are dropping too deep in this new system that we have used for the last four games? I think the back four have been pressing up to compress the midfield so that our midfield 2 are not in too much space. Nothing wrong with that but it obviously leaves a lot of space behind our centre halves - which Notts Forest and Wolves exploited. We are going to see more of that type of goals against. I think Huws was more of a problem than Whitehead on Saturday - he ran out steam pretty early. Hogg added some good energy when he came on and set Nahki up with a good pass.

We can't all think everything is rosy, it would make for dull debate. No one on here thinks everything is rosy mate. Don't pretend you bring debate to this board either. All you offer is constant criticism of the club. If you presented even a hint of a more balanced view, you might get people to take you a bit more seriously.

The only ad hoc one was Davidson for their second goal! I don't see any problem with them dropping back as a unit and moving forward as a unit. I thought a bigger problem in the second half is that they were spread too far apart.
