Simon Baldry was also the best player in the Yorkshire Masters, about 10 years ago, if that counts for anything 🔥
I doubt Pritchard, Mbenza or Diakhaby will pick up that accolade in 2030, mores the pity...

I'm not sure starting twice as many games is evidence of him being in a different league? Doesn't it just prove that he's been shit twice as much?! No, it proves his manager has picked him almost constantly throughout his time here doesn't it? This might suggest that he's not, as some here term him, "shit", though who knows what insights they have.
However, I wonder if the managers may also have insights, perhaps derived from seeing him in training, and knowing a bit about football players, that sort of thing, which made them pick him pretty constantly for season after season? I'm torn, tbh, as to whose opinion to follow.
Which other No 10 could the manager pick? |

Well it's certainly not goals and assists that the dwarf has contributed. Slowing things down, turning back and falling over at the slightest touch, maybe, but is that actually contributing 🤔😁 Like i say i’m no fan. I thought he was a fantastic signing at the time. Very disappointing, Me too |

What a disgrace that image is. Pathetic excuse for a pro footballer, should be embarrassed.
Looks a right knob.

Can we just accept that neither player is very good although one is significantly worse than the other.

Can we just accept that neither player is very good although one is significantly worse than the other. I think the biggest difference - other than ability - is attitude. Mbenza is trying to contribute on the field and is having a degree of success. Diakhaby just looks like he wants to be anywhere other than on the field playing for Huddersfield Town (something I share with him!). His body language is shocking. Mbenza has not done enough (yet) for many of us to forget how little he has contributed over the time he's been with us, but at least he's trying. He is contributing in terms of goals, assists and markedly improved performances. Diakhaby hasn't changed. He's getting more game time but, for whatever reason, he's just not doing anything to justify his place in the team. And judging by his on-field body language, he doesn't strike me as the sort of player who has it in him to turn things around. Irrespective of whether he has ability or not. To be honest, like many I'd given up on both of them. So, for one to be contributing to the team is a bonus. |

I don’t agree with Diakhaby and lack of effort.
I just think he can’t take the pressure and as a result is just a very poor footballer. If he cared less he’d probably play better.
I imagine in training he looks good.

I personally couldn't give a shit, but that was always going to get a reaction, let alone when you're already seen as a bit powder puff.
Someone like Hogg, who understands how many English think, should've had a word.

Would you turn up to a funeral in a clown suit? He just looks a tit, just a bit of decorum is needed in this instance. Although I think I have misunderstood, I thought the kerfuffle was about him trussed up during the minutes silence. |

I was hoping the people attending would be dressed as clowns and the cars would be driving in with the doors falling off. |

A professional footballer respecting the fallen. In fact, forget the respecting the fallen bit; a professional footballer 🤔 Has it occurred to anyone that he may be suffering with depression or some other mental health issue? He looks like he is about to burst into tears on that pic. On the pitch he is playing as though he is frightened to death of making a mistake. You don't play for Monaco or France under 21s if you don't have talent. It seems to me like his confidence is shot and football aside I feel for the lad. He is young, in a foreign country and he seems to be on a downward slope. I sincerely hope that someone at the club is keeping an eye on his mental health and wellbeing. |

It's a thought, do we have sports psychologists at Town. |

He needs a goal or a couple of assists to boost his spirits. Extended highlights show two attempts from him which were blocked or deflected. On another day one ends up in the back of the net. It should be possible to get a 1 million pound tune out of a 10 million pound player, even on a bad day. He might have cost £10m but he's not a £10m player. There's a big difference. |
