    3 min

    First shot of the game for Huddersfield as space opens up for Mbenza in front of a our back four. He goes for a shot from 20 yards but it's weakly struck and well wide.

    6 min

    Good tackle by Fred in the middle of the park and he frees Pogba in the centre circle who bursts forward but Huddersfield crowd him out before he can play in Rashford.

    7 min

    Ole already on the sidelines barking instructions to the players. Slow enough start to the game.
    Sad to see Herrera dropped, especially while Matic stays in the side
     
    Matic is a horrid passer. He takes all fluidity out of the play with the constant passes slightly behind team mates or giving them the wrong weight.
     

    8 min

    Pogba and Shaw combine on the left to try and work a crossing position for the full-back but Shaw commits a foul and the chance is lost.
    We look quite static without Martial. Shaw is reluctant to run forward and Mata is too slow on the wing.
     
    I love the composure around Luke Shaw. Knows how to hold onto a ball and also runs with it if he can’t make a pass.
     

    9 min

    Huddersfield with every player behind the ball, staying compact but we're getting quite a few bodies forward in response. Dalot and Shaw well advanced on the wings.

    11 min

    Big chance for Huddersfield as Kongolo fires over from seven yards out. A long throw into the box causes chaos for us and that could easily have been the opening goal for the visitors.
    We got lucky there!
     

    12 min

    Another long throw for Huddersfield is launched into our box but this time we deal with it, heading clear at the near post.
    feckin hell what a miss.
     

    13 min

    First meaningful attack from us as we counter from Huddersfield's long throw. Fred fires a lovely ball out to the left for Mata who immediately crosses looking for Rashford but the striker can't quite reach the ball in the box.

    We played that very nicely, two quick passes and we were almost in on goal.
    Playing shite so far. Solskjaer out poch in
     
    We have no right side with Mata. He's not effective there.
