Ex-Huddersfield boss Powell backs club to stave off relegation

Published on: 07 November 2017

Former Huddersfield Town manager Chris Powell believes the club will not be relegated from the Premier League this season.

Current manager David Wagner replaced the 48-year-old, who has also managed Charlton and had caretaker spells at Leicester and Derby, as Terriers boss in 2015.

And Powell believes the standard of Wagner's side will see them stay above the rest of the struggling Premier League teams.

"I do think they will stay up," said Powell. "Not just because they're 10th now. I just feel that there are definitely three worse teams.

"I think they will finish above 17th. Where I couldn't tell you because it chops and changes.

"But I do feel, unless all the teams who are struggling bring in players who can help them really up their game, and I don't see that happening, they will be fine."
