He controlled the tempo well 1st half but he was fooked 2nd should have come off ......id give him 2 days off be nice bto think Billing and Ivan can get up to speed and push Hogg and Mooy for places , i can see him go Hogg and Whitehead on Wednesday but imo that would be daft those 2 never play well together

He needs to be a bit braver and attempt more defence splitting balls rather than going sideways so much To who? There was a reverse pass he played and the striker reacted too late for it. Another attempted eye of the needle pass that nearly got through but he had under half a metre space between the two defenders. Those low percntage passes but thats what the strikers gave him to work with. Hogg basically played at CB for the first half and avoided a forward pass to Mooy for much of that half. Huddersfields. strikers were not simply mobile enough and when they do get the ball its head down and run. One had the opportunity to put Mooy running past inside the box through on goal but decided it was better to go alone and hit Row Z in the stands. Also give credit to Sheffeild Mooy was closely guarded all game. |

As an aside, does anyone really believe he's 26 ?
Pretty sure he's closer to 35.

Didn't think he played well at all, although Forestieri was closing him down quickly whenever he got on the ball. Movement wasn't great in front of him but he didn't play many incisive passes, and he looked a bit sluggish on second balls at times. Would be tempted to start him on the bench Wednesday but Billing and Paurevic are seemingly far from the 11 and Whitehead offers little going forward. Not Billing now the stupid git has got himself sent off for the U23's, suspended for Wednesday night now Sent from my SM-G900F using proboards |

Real shame Billing for whatever reason hasn't got a look in at 1st team level as he would be the perfect replacement for Mooy. Suspect if Mooy is rested he will go with Whitehead, which for me gives us very little going fowards. Both end up trying to play the same role and it just doesn't work for me. If Billing can't play due to getting sent off for the under 23's then I'd like to see Paruevic get a go, would also give us a bit more of a physical presence against a Preston side that are usually a battling side.

I wonder if it's worth telling Billing he would've started Wednesday (regardless of whether he would or not) if he'd not got himself sent off. It might make him think twice next time

He beats a man before he's even received the ball, the way he drops his shoulder and turns is pure class.
Nick you mentioned Butterfield in same class as mooy, they were worlds apart today.

Totally different game when Mooy came on. We suddenly dominated midfield. The momentum shifted and they went into holding on and time wasting mode. Very few, if any, better players in the Championship.

He is amazing to watch, unflappable with 3 around him, he also beats people without going anywhere or any real trickery. Its like alchemy with a ball!

It doesn't do anything fancy, but manages to make a load of space for himself. Clearly an astonishing level of awareness and speed of thought. |

Different gravy is mooy. He's gifted. He knows what he's going to do before he gets it eveytime. He's on a different level to teammates as well as opposition at times though. It's a shame we don't have Paterson or lolley as they might've been on his level a bit more.
All these Aussies are not ott about Mooy. The best player I've seen at town. It's worth £179 to watch him alone play 30+ games. We will have to manage him but we desperately need him on the pitch all the time imo. He's just too good not to play.
I also think there's more goals to him and maybe even a more advanced role at times.
Oh and I'm willing to bet he's in Man City's squad next season.

Truth be told many of Melbourne City fans were underwhelmed with Aaron signing for a "small" Championship club (without actually knowing anything about the club, LOL). Melbourne City's owners City Financial Group loaned out another Australian lad Luke Bratten to Bolton and he didn't get a single minute with them. Luke's now back at Melbourne City on loan from Man City. Three games in the A-League I think Luke's at least as good as Mooy was for us. To me he's built with the short legs and tight turning circle, moves and passes like a Pirlo ( he's not as good as Pirlo, of course, but the playing style is there). Come the WC, I see Aaron and Luke fighting for the deep play maker role for the national team. Coming to Huddersfield I feared Aarons' career stalling like Luke's. Anyway happy Mooy's move seems to have worked out well for player and club alike. |

Whilst I do think Brattan may be a chance for the WC he most certainly won't be dislodging Mooy. Jedinak is most likely to be force out, even so Milligan would be in front of Brattan, as would Luongo. |

Bratten is a better player than when he left Brisbane, and he was in the top 3 is 4 mids going around then. He currently leads player of the year voting for Herald Sun. Milligan is finished- Postecoglou still owes him though for convincing him not to go to England when he could've. Luongo is hot and cold, and has been in and out of the team. Jedinak already doesn't have the legs, let alone in 18 or so months. Bratten is your classical number 6. Tim Cahill's opinion: "he left an impression on talisman Tim Cahill, who compared Brattan's passing style and control to that of Mark Bresciano. You guys might think that's a big comment. But I think give it some time and this kid will be making some noises." Cahill said. |

Bratten is as good as mooy as a deep lying playmaker, but Mooy is the best number 10 we have by a fair way, better than rogic. or at least he was when he played that position. milligan isn't even close to finished he's always one of our best players just doesn't have the legs to play completely out of position as right back. Jedinak is the one who is finished. |

There have only been three games so far, yes Brattan has performed well so far but still has some ways to go to match Mooy for consistency. First you call him a number six and then quote Cahill who compares him to Bresciano who was never a '6'. Not sure why you think Milligan is done, still a very good player with a role to play. Yes, Brattan seems a prospect but to suggest he will be battling Mooy for Mooy's spot is fanciful to say the least. |

Sounds like you could do without Mooy for a few games...give young Brattan a chance.
All these qualifiers are a waste of time anyway. They are in Europe too.

Cant see Mooy getting any game time at Man City. He's class at this level but he's not top 4 of the Premier League class

Mooy's card must be marked by every team in this league now. Preston and the Wendies were all over him giving him limited opportunities to make a big impact. Interesting to see that our ex England manager opposition yesterday clearly wasn't able to get his team to adapt to his introduction in the second half.
If we can keep Mooy fit and firing all season he may just be the difference for us.

100% correct decision to start the game with Whitehead and bring Mooy on as a sub I thought.
Mooy had a bigger impact off the bench as I think he would have been knackered after 60min if he'd started. Whitehead starting allowed to us get a solid foothold in the game albeit without looking hugely threatening, but once we'd established ourselves it was time for Mooy to come on and do his thing and IMO the timing was perfect.
