    Bielsa then a top manager and we were better than them last year but Gayle and JRod are back in the Prem for a reason! Sheffield Utd spend for the Premier still modest and they are challenging for Europe so again full credit to Wilder. Talent is key but it’s like the Huddersfield kids last night - hunger - desire - wanting it.? These qualities go a long way!

    That is the point. For some inexplicable reason we appeared to lack the desire and hunger that was required. Did the pressure get to them? To my mind it would appear to be the case. It's the only explanation that I can come up with. If you look at the technical abilities of the two teams we would probably come out on top in most positions but as for desire, we didn't come close. As I have said before, we played like a mid-table side who had little to play for in an end of season game.
