Another little thing from Saturday, it was only at half time when i heard Pritchard's name mentioned that i realised he wasn't playing. Which only goes to show that I/we didn't miss him

According to a certain Mr. Chicken of the parish

'The first was that Town missed Alex Pritchard. We were very critical of the midfielder for his first few appearances of the season as he continued his rather lost-looking form of last season, but he was much more comfortable and consequently much better playing in a more advanced number 10 role against Nottingham Forest last week.

A minor quad injury kept him out of this game, and part of the reason Campbell had to keep dropping deep was to get into the space Pritchard had occupied to good effect last week. With nobody there, the attack got pulled backwards, rather than the midfield being pulled forward.'

'The Terriers missed Pritchard's creativity in the derby draw'

'But they desperately missed Pritchard's creativity in the number ten role.

Speaking after the game, Corberan revealed Pritchard missed out due to a minor quad injury.'

I might be wrong, but the Pritchard he's watching isn't the one me and thee are watching, so I'd put Mr. Chicken in a minority of 1 if he was anywhere near this forum.
