Are we the best team in the division?

[Not Andy Naylor]

Hm. In the press conference for the papers he said we were ONE of the best teams.

 

[Perkino]

Huddersfield looked very average tonight, I thought 1-0 flattered them. We are 1 of the best teams in the division but clearly have our weak spots which a better team would probably take advantage of.

I'd be shocked if they finish top 6

 

[Munkfish]

Kind of reminds me of the Bill Shankly quote: "The best two teams on Merseyside are Liverpool and Liverpool reserves."

(Incidentally, my favourite Shankly quote is still, "A football team is like a piano. You need eight men to carry it and three who can play the damn thing.")

How true.

You only need one player to play a piano. Sorry but that quote makes no sense.

Just saw the Huddersfield manager on sky sports news post match saying he can take positives from the game for they were able to compete with the best team in the division.

Do you think we are the best team?

No sadly we are not. But if people wish to delude themselves and believe we are, then good luck to them.

Momentum can take you a long way, if they can bounce back from this loss I don't see why they can't be in the top 6.

Those outside were nothing special last season and Derby appear to be in a bit of a mess.

 

[BensGrandad]

Second only to Newcastle

As the table will show on 7th May.

 

[synavm]

Nah, that's Newcastle. We're definitely top five, though.

 

[Mo Gosfield]

I think thats what he meant to say for Sky but it came out as " team "
In the months ahead, three teams will dominate this division....Newcastle, Sheff Wed and BHA but Toon will win it by 8-10 points. I'm worried that Wed have more firepower than us but time will tell.

I saw this and i think he said or either meant to say "best teams in the division"

As they've now played Villa, Newcastle, us and cough, Barnsley.

Surely you'd only want one pianist, the other two would get in the way?

 

[Eeyore]

Simply the answer is NO....

Sound bites for Huddersfield fans to soften the blow for their first defeat of many.

Although they might smell a rat when he trots the same excuse for Blackburn Rovers.

 

[Deleted member 22389]

It's the sort of freak goal that Burnley or Boro would have scored last season. There is a long way to go this season. Win at Burton which isn't going to be easy followed by a win at home game will see us right back up there.

 

[alfredmizen]

We weren't even the best team on the pitch tonight.

Totally disagree , we were better than Huddersfield last night.

 

[Simster]

You only need one player to play a piano. Sorry but that quote makes no sense.

To be fair, if Shankly had been around at the same time as Le Tissier carrying his shite Southampton side for a decade, he'd probably have been quoted as saying you only need one man to play it rather than three!

 

[Trufflehound]

You only need one player to play a piano. Sorry but that quote makes no sense.

You don't have to carry pianos either - they have wheels.

 

[Kent Seagull]

We were the best team left in the division last season. I think Newcastle will walk it this year, they just have so much quality. If we can be 2nd best come May I'm more than happy!

 

[Farehamseagull]

No we're not. If we'd signed a quality striker in the summer we could have had a claim to be though.

 

[Triggaaar]

No. We might have been last season, if that helps.

 

[Hamilton]

I don't think there is a best team in the league. It's all going to be very tight.

And look at it this way. You're manager and your team has just lost to the team that finished 3rd last year. It's easy to say "we lost to the best team in the league." Nice little side swerve.

 

[Cheshire Cat]

We were relegation fodder last week. Can you make your minds up?
