#2 Huddersfield might be an early contender for the relegation scrap

Worrying signs early on for Wagner and his men

Huddersfield Town just about survived the relegation scrap last season and it did not come as a surprise when many of the pundits had predicted them to be one of the candidates who will be fighting for survival this time around. If the performance against Chelsea is anything to go by, then there is no doubt in the fact that David Wagner will have his task cut-out yet again in their bid for survival.

The Terriers never looked like troubling Chelsea during the afternoon and were eventually let down and punished for their woeful defending that looked lacklustre, to say the least. From the marking that left Kante unmarked for the opening goal to Christopher Schindler's irresponsible lunge that led to the first half penalty, the defending from Huddersfield was quite below par and it could prove to be a worrying sign in the future.
