Huddersfield Town manager: Sam Allardyce tells talkSPORT its very unlikely hell replace David Wagner
Sam Allardyce has revealed to talkSPORT its very unlikely he will take the Huddersfield Town job.Big Sam is the bookmakers 3/1 favourite to take over at the John Smith’s Stadium following David Wagners surprise departure as manager on Monday.The German, who spent three-and-a-half years in charge of the Terriers, leaves with the club currently sitting rock-bottom of the Premier League table.2

Wagner leaves Huddersfield bottom of the league and eight points adrift of safety

Allardyce would seem the obvious choice to take over, given his previous success at saving clubs from relegation.However, he believes saving Huddersfield – who sit eight points from safety – is too great a task for any manager and isn’t keen on the role. Speaking exclusively to the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast on Tuesday morning, the former England, Everton and Crystal Palace manager said: As much as I like Huddersfield, its a very difficult job indeed.For me, and I know the fans wont want to hear this, its got to be about planning for relegation and then planning to get back into the Premier League.For me, at this stage of my life if they made an approach I would chat with them, but I think its very unlikely, Alan.Theyve only scored 13 goals in 22 matches, and while Ive managed to pull teams out of the bottom end, at Sunderland I had Jermain Defoe scoring 18 and at Crystal Palace I had Christian Benteke who scored 15 goals.2

Big Sam has never been relegated during his managerial career

Huddersfields trouble is not their performances, its a lack of goals and we all know what it means when you have a goalscorer.I’ve watched a lot of their games and they’ve always been very close, they’re never been thrashed really, but because of the lack of quality in front of goal they’ve ended up drawing instead of winning and losing instead of drawing. So its a very difficult task.“Not this time.”Following Allardyce’s admission on talkSPORT,Under-23 coach Mark Hudson has now emerged as the favourite for the Huddersfield job, with an appointment expected to be madeafter Sunday’s match with Manchester City. Hudson received the backing of Wagner ahead of that game in an open letter written by the former boss in which he expressed his thanks to chairman Dean Hoyle, staff, players and fans.“Together, we have achieved unbelievable things; we made the dream of Premier League football for Huddersfield Town a reality,” he wrote.“That only happened because of this incredible togetherness that was unique to this club.“I’m sad to be leaving, but I’m immensely proud of what we’ve achieved at Huddersfield Town.“This club is now in my heart and ultimately, I want what is best for its future. I will be supporting them from afar this weekend when Mark Hudson leads the team against Manchester City and I wish him, the staff, the players and you, the fans, all the luck in the world.”
