Huddersfield Town v Plymouth A

Is Huddersfield thinking Argyle are going to be a walk over

The Terriers boss named seven players who he hopes to start against Plymouth Argyle at the John Smith's Stadium in the Saturday evening third round 6pm kick off

Carlos Corberan has taken the unusual step of naming a large portion of his intended Huddersfield Town starting line up to face Plymouth Argyle in the FA Cup third round on Saturday evening.

The Terriers boss had previously indicated that he would look to rest first-team players, and has now confirmed the extent of those changes.

He explained that he is not rotating his line up out of disrespect to the competition but simply out of necessity, with "five or six" players rested under instruction from the club's medical staff, Isaac Mbenza self-isolating despite a negative covid test, and other first-teamers having just started at least the last five games in a row.

Head coaches and managers are usually loath to show their hand to the opposition too much when it comes to team selection but on this occasion Corberan had no qualms about reeling off the names of multiple players who he hopes to start against Plymouth at 6pm on Saturday.

After saying it will be a "totally different" team to the one that has played in the Championship recently, Corberan went on to list the following players as possible or intended starters:

Demeaco Duhaney
Jaden Brown
Aaron Rowe
Pat Jones
Kieran Phillips
Romoney Crichlow
Alex Vallejo

Corberan has also indicated that new signings Danny Grant and Rolando Aarons will not start but could come on as substitutes.

Danny Ward and Adama Diakhaby remain sidelined with hamstring and achilles injuries respectively but both are expected back in training next week.

With Plymouth generally favouring a 3-5-2 this season it is possible Corberan could look to line up in a 3-4-3.

Huddersfield Town predicted XI to face Plymouth Argyle: (3-4-3): Ben Hamer; Demeaco Duhaney, Alex Vallejo, Romoney Crichlow; Aaron Rowe, Alex Pritchard, Ben Jackson, Jaden Brown; Matty Daly, Kieran Phillips, Pat Jones

Substitutes: Joel Pereira, Loick Ayina, Jaheim Headley, Myles Bright, Etienne Camara, Brahima Diarra, Rolando Aarons, Danny Grant, Kian Harratt.

Huddersfield's kids will have way too much for Argo. Time to concentrate on trying to avoid relegation.

Reckon Argo will be in the draw for the next round.

Ryan Lowe's Green Army will have far too much for the Yorkshire Puddings. Huddersfield 0 -4 PAFC.

Get Lowe to sign a 10 year contract. Act now Simon Hallett before he's tempted by a Premier League team.

I predict a hard fought 0-6

Ok, a hard fought 2-2.

Where with been playing shit this will come out the blue a MASSIVIE CUP UPSET 1-0 TO US (YOUNG JEPPERS)

May be wrong but I think this year it's sudden death, no replays.

2-1 Argyle
Hardie and Jeppers.

We'll get battered by 3 or 4

2 goal keepers on the bench !

LOL Just logged onto FA Player just in time to see Argo go 1 down.

Logging off now as game over

Bye bye.

Playing well, Camera looking good.

I - 1 Hardie, better side at mo.

Anyone explain the logic of that?

I won't slate the Manager for having lost the plot until Rickler has had the chance to enlightened me as to the incredible tactical thinking behind it.

Cracking 2and goal for Town.

2 - 2 Camera good game

Very good game...Defence is fragile which of our players turned his back for their 2nd !!

POST AMENDED BY ADMIN TO REMOVE RACIST CONTENT

Not a great performance at the moment. Half of Huddersfield's team appear to be teenagers, and none of them are first teamers, but it's pretty even. We won't get a much better opportunity to get through to round 4 and really should win this given who we are facing.

Shame we didn't knock another one in in the last minute Hudderfield were sat back. More goals in this game yet could go either way.

Comes to something when a nomark club like Uddersfield think it's acceptable to field a 3rd string team in this once illustrious competition, RIP FA Cup.

2 - 3 Edwards

great to see the guys come back from behind twice to lead the game.
