"We are Huddersfield Town, nobody must forget that," says David Wagner after Newcastle win

Huddersfield Town manager David Wagner wants people to remember just how far his side have come after they went joint top of the Premier League on Sunday.

Aaron Mooy's 50th-minute strike saw the Terriers beat Newcastle United 1-0 at the John Smith's Stadium, the newly promoted club's first-ever home win in the Premier League.

Despite this being Huddersfield's maiden campaign in the Premier League and their first top-flight season since 1972, they have so far collected maximum points from their opening two fixtures after winning 3-0 at Crystal Palace last weekend.

However, Wagner was quick to remind everyone where his side have come from in reaching the Premier League last season.

"We are Huddersfield Town, nobody must forget that," he said after the game. "We got promoted via Wembley, we started this season with two wins, two clean sheets with six points, this is unbelievable.

"This is something where everybody had to invest in so much, and they have done it. So I am very happy for them as these were not lucky points which we have on the board already and we deserve the points.

"And this is very important and the performance was very good as well."

Wagner, though, thought Huddersfield's Super Sunday win was actually more convincing than last Saturday's victory at Selhurst Park.

"This was a more deserved result for us today than last week, in my opinion, where we were lucky in a lot of situations," he said. "We gave too many chances away with the defence, but today we were very strong on the defence."

What most pleased Wagner about Sunday's performance, however, was that his players all carried out his pre-match game plan to the letter.

"I am very happy and proud that the players really followed our idea to try and keep Newcastle as far away as possible from our goal," he said. "To try and go in their face and press them high.

"We have done this over a good period in the game, we gave away no big or clear-cut chances and our defence's performance was very sharp. We looked good and got a deserved win.

"We knew that Newcastle were difficult to break down, we had to be patient and were and then we had one great and magic moment from Aaron Mooy that was enough to win this game.

"And I am delighted today with the result and performance. This was a great day for us today, the first Premier League home game in the club's history, a win and a clean sheet, so I am delighted."
