    Second-half kick-off

    No changes at the break.

    Agree, Victor has been outstanding so far. Jones has always been like this, a quality defender but injuries have kept him back.

    Jones is a good defender. Mourinho was just very good, sadly, at slagging these players off, and they are showing the are not what he said they were.

    I think he's solid, but nothing more. He lacks real pace, and his only above average attribute is his ball retention in tight areas. His overlaps are often poorly timed, and at least one or two of Mata's failed cross field passes failed because Shaw was far too slow to anticipate the pass.

    He offers the bare minimum when it comes to fullback which is enough now but I really think at one point we'll need to move on to a much better fullback.
     
    Fred made two tackles and won the ball back eight times in that first half, more than any other Manchester United player...

    In fairness he has been the weakest link in the side today and does not look comfortable in there. I would be thinking of subbing him. Herrera if he is on the bench.

    He's also on a yellow, so I wouldn't wait too long to sub him off.

    Early second-half possession for Huddersfield as they send a cross in from our left and it reaches Depoitre who's overhead kick goes well wide.
    Great piece of defending and excellent ball from pogs there. He's been terrific in running the game quietly and efficiently
     
    I wouldn't worry too much about Fred's sloppyness, Ole has said he wants players to try.

    Huddersfield go forward again but Pogba blocks him and immediately sends a long pass over the back of the visitor's defence for Rashford to chase. He controls it really well but gets crowded out on the edge of the box.
    Huddersfield shouldve done alot better with that chance. our opposition is getting nervous when inside our box, used to be the other way around

    Very positive start to the half from Huddersfield as they come pouring forward and open up our backline. Depoitre finds space on the edge of the box but delays his shot and we eventually block it and clear.

    We then break up the other end and Mata has a shooting chance on the edge of the box but loses the ball.
    Mourninho would be going crazy if a half started like this. Getting the feeling we will happily let this go end to end now.
     
    We have to work on that bit defensively. We get too many players sucked to one side and the overlapping run ends up being wide open on the other flank, happened like 3 times over these 2 games already and better teams will definitely punish that.

    Huddersfield forward again and Kachunga has a shot from the edge of the box, firing over. The visitors really going for it. There could be a few goals on the way.
