It's been a difficult start for the 21-year-old since his move to Boro from Blackpool in the summer. The left-back was left out against Preston as Ryan Shotton was moved to left-back. When asked about Bola after the game, Woodgate said: "Marc is still only young, he's just come from Blackpool, he's a young lad who needs to learn the game." Photo: Frank Reid

Huddersfield recorded their first league win of the season after a 1-0 win at Stoke. “The players fought really hard for each other, at times we defended for our lives, and showed a real threat on the counter attack," said new manager Danny Cowley after the game. Photo: Getty Images
