It’s getting

Andrew Hughes revealed what he believes would be a successful season for the club.

“Lots of things lead to success,” the ex-Reading midfielder said.

“We want to better ourselves every day and the manager wants the players to improve every day. So success is the players improving from last season and the new players integrating.

“Obviously everyone outside of Huddersfield sees success as staying in the Premier League – and yeah, that is successful.

“But we want to play well, play hard, be good to watch, be tough to beat, but also be exciting.

“We’ve got to take the examples of the Bournemouths and Burnleys, and clubs that have sustained four or five years in the Premier League – like a Crystal Palace.

“We’ve got to look at what they’ve done and how they’ve been successful, because you learn off other people as well.

“If you go around saying you’ve done it all yourself, you’d be lying. We all learn off other people, it’s like coaches taking ideas off other coaches and manipulating them.

“So we want to learn from others as well and we just want to give our best for every game and see where it takes us.”

Although Hughes admits topflight survival would contribute towards a successful season, the 39-year-old believes no limits should be put on this squad as a whole – although the players are set individual targets by the backroom staff.

He added: “I don’t see it (success) as survival. I see it as, we will go out and do our best for the town and the fans will buy into that.

“We have targets set within the group, we like to keep it that way.

“So we want to try and hit those targets and at the end of the season we’ll let you know if we’ve hit them.”

Hughes spoke to the Examiner outside Town’s hotel in Kirchberg during their pre-season tour, and the one-time Bolton caretaker manager believes it’s clear to see why the head coach chose the idyllic setting for the Terriers’ training camp.

And while on the subject of Wagner, Hughes revealed his admiration of Town’s head coach.

He said: “It’s not far, the food’s good and the facilities are good. Simple.

“David couldn’t be any clearer, there’s lots of strengths about David, I could give you an end-
