Tom Huddlestone

Anyone care to bring back the Beckham "Quarterback role" that was much discussed when McClaren was England manager?

Because that's kind of how I see him.

Not a fan. Would prefer a more mobile midfielder with Ledley or Gorgeous and Ledley. Hudds is so slow to move and react, he only just gets away with it a Championship level.

Watching the match I think Ledley plays Huddlestone into trouble for the Leeds goal. Huddlestone should have done better but he wasn't the only one.

I still think he had time to deal with it however he was fouled, dirty Leeds went through him to get the ball.  I think the criticism of him or JL  in this case is unfair

Young bloke behind me at the match last night was laying into all the players at the top of his voice (acting up for his young acolytes ) and I put up with it until he was celebrating Johnson going down after a challenge "I hope he's injured cause he's f****** crap" so I turned round and asked him if he was a Derby supporter. He hadn't got a clue what he had done wrong. We had to move seats at half time or I would have strangled him!

I do not understand the mentality of 'fans' like that.

On the Huddlestone debate just look at what he does over the 90 minutes, not the two bits you see on the highlights. 

Was it Dawes or Ramage, Angie?
