Huddersfield Town is getting results with their unchanged style of play
Huddersfield Town is getting results with their unchanged style of play

Huddersfield Town has been the surprise of the year so far. Firstly, by getting promoted to the Premier League after winning the Championships Playoffs, and secondly, by performing the best among the newly promoted sides (well, until the end of game week 6 at least).

The reason behind their success is the fact that did not change their style of play. When the teams get promoted to Premier League, they often sit back and defend. But, Huddersfield under their German manager David Wagner continued their high-pressing high-tempo style of play even against the Premier League's experienced teams like Crystal Palace and got the result.

After just six games, they have 9 points, close to a third of the magical 40 points mark with 32 games left to play.
