Five conclusions how Jon Worthington begins the dream

There is always a different feeling for the first game under a new manager – a strange mix of fresh and careful optimism, like the first day at school after a long and boring summer vacation.

Only this time we knew what would expect from a Jon Worthington page, and it already liked it. The interim head coach delivered high pressure pressed, attack-related football last season during a pleasant magic. That is exactly what we got back here.

We had to save a thought of Michael Duff, who had to have been sitting at home and wished that he had the opportunity to take it over and through terrible crawley team.

All first four goals from Huddersfield Town were gifts from the opposition. Crawley even pursued her own goal with her own assist for goals two and three. We do not believe that we have seen a more pubic defensive performance since the city lost 7-0 in Norwich in 2020/21.

But we should compensate for this with the fact that the city had been in attack for months, especially at John Smith's stadium. They scored as many goals here as in their previous ten home games. You played many other arms and problems this season. This is the first time that you have achieved five in one game since Charlton's beating in January 2016.

Given this, don't let us look too much pony crawley's horse gifts in the mouth.

As Duff himself said last week, they make their own luck in this game, and the city has certainly done more than enough to earn what they got. When Crawley was allowed to sniff, the city had already set up an unassailable tour.

The terriers were fast, they were eager, they were properly with the ball and they gave away their chances. This could not have been removed from the preliminary, nervous, sloppy displays that we saw in this campaign so often.

After all, this felt like a team that was no longer defined by his defects – lack of size, quality and leadership – but began the potential that it should have shown throughout the season.

How long Worthington career as a leadership career takes is unlikely that he will face such a generous opponent again. But even if they were looking for guilt in the city in the back of the head, it was difficult to find.

Worthington only made three changes to the side that lost to Bristol Rovers last weekend, with Matty Pearson and Neo Eccleston covering the only players who are due to injuries.

But of course the shape was completely different. Although it looked at paper, as it was best to fit in a 3-5-2, the city was actually in a flexible 4-3-3, which in the earlier phases of the structure played more like a 4-2-3-1.

None of this was complicated, but it was effective.

The back four ended a simple order, neither Josh Ruffels nor Ollie Turton, based on creativity. Instead, they were there to facilitate the wingers, Ruben Roosken and Callum Marshall, as required by the three central midfielder.

Oh yes: wing player! Do you remember that?
