Tom Lees - Marshaled the defence well and looked comfortable playing out. 7
Nigel Lonwijk - An assured performance from the loanee. 7
Mickel Miller - Picked the wrong pass on the odd occasion but a lively performance. 7
David Kasumu - Constantly wanted the ball, even in tight areas in Huddersfield’s own half. Looked to progress the Terriers up the pitch with his movement and passing. 7
