They genuinely care. They are good boys. If we didn&#8217;t think they cared we wouldn&#8217;t play them and I think I have shown that in the decisions I have taken over time.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div align=\"left\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;But what we have to do now as a football club is look forward and have to want to better ourselves. We have to stop getting in our own way; that&#8217;s really, really important.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div align=\"left\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">&#8220;We have to recruit a group that ticks enough of the Championship boxes because there are certainly boxes that have to be ticked if you want to be a good Championship team.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3 dir=\"ltr\">Huddersfield Under Cowley<\/h3>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Cowley replaced Jan Siewert, who was sacked on 16 August after three winless league games and a Carabao Cup first-round defeat by Cowley&#8217;s Lincoln City, in September.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The former Imps manager lost his first game in charge against Sheffield Wednesday, before a defeat at West Brom and draw against Millwall.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">A win over Stoke City was followed up by a 3-0 victory over Hull City &#8211; a result which moved the Terriers out of the bottom three. Since then, Cowley&#8217;s side have been above the drop but have been flirting with relegation for most of the season.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The 41-year-old will be hoping of some investment during the transfer window as he aims to rebuild a Huddersfield side that can secure promotion back to the Premier League.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div align=\"left\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Main Photo<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a id=\"SYO602llQ-lJh1O4VOwwoQ\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.co.uk\/detail\/1227667547\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'SYO602llQ-lJh1O4VOwwoQ',sig:'j3GCN1eou7RqZK6TPuOYD4iIiMAggcToe8cSpRW1cmw=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1227667547',caption: true ,tld:'co.uk',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Huddersfield Town manager Danny Cowley has hinted at the need for investment in his squad ahead of next season.
