Blackburn, Carlos Corberan and Recruitment

Huddersfield Town have had a very Huddersfield Town week, taking a deserved 0-2 win away to Nottingham Forest before putting in a poor performance in a single-goal defeat at home to Barnsley that should have been about 0-3.What went right against Forest that they didn't do against Barnsley? Was playing long against Barnsley the wrong approach altogether? And how important could the return of Carel Eiting be over the remaining three games?We also touch on the disastrous European Super League plans, how it might have affected a club like Huddersfield Town and what the fans can learn from the fact that it collapsed so quickly.

Steven Chicken and David Hartrick are back once again with the ill behaviour to discuss Huddersfield Town's 1-0 win away to QPR.Did we see this coming? Why have Lewis O'Brien and Naby Sarr suddenly got back to their best?

Lewis O'Brien, Apologies To Richard Keogh and QPR

Steven Chicken and David Hartrick go through a goalless draw against Cardiff that was more interesting than the scoreline might suggest, not least because Huddersfield Town continued to adapt to a more pragmatic approach.We talk about Alex Vallejo's form and where he might fit in when Jonathan Hogg is fit and able to return (hopefully against QPR at the weekend), Yaya Sanogo's impact up front and whether Corberan should stick with the back three as his default formation for the foreseeable future.We also have a bit of a chat about what that change of approach means for the summer's recruitment plans and how Jordan Rhodes might (or might not) fit into that.

Something Old, Something New

Why do they have such a hard time against deep-lying opposition? Is Ryan Schofield the main issue or can his teammates do more to help? And what do we make of the arrival of Yaya Sanogo?
