Sheffield Wednesday beat Huddersfield 2-0 at the weekend, to ensure that Garry Monk's spell in charge of the Owls got off to the best possible start.

The Owls have made a positive start to the new season and are currently ninth in the Championship table, just one point outside the play-offs.

Monk took charge at Hillsborough earlier this month - replacing Steve Bruce who left to join Newcastle - and is determined to guide the Owls to promotion this season.

However, despite the promising start to his tenure at Hillsborough, Monk has admitted that his side still have a lot to work on and that there's still plenty of room for improvement.

Here are three areas of concern for Monk to work on despite his promising start...

Still work to do in the final third

There were certainly plenty of positives for Monk to take away from his side's performance, but there's still plenty of room for improvement. Monk admitted at his post-match press conference at the Owls still have work to do in the final third and he is right.

They created plenty of opportunities and scored two very good goals, but they need to be a bit more clinical, especially when they come up against some of the stronger teams in the league.

The good news is that they've got some very creative players in their squad and with the likes of Barry Bannan in their side, they will not struggle to create chances in games this season.

Getting the best out of Jacob Murphy

Monk is an experienced manager and he will not be afraid to experiment with his team selection.

His arrival at the club will offer some of the players hope that they can force their way back into the first team and there were plenty of positive performances at the weekend.

However, one player who had an afternoon to forget was Jacob Murphy. The on-loan Newcastle man struggled to make an impact in the game and was replaced after an hour.

He's a good player and is more than capable of making an impact at this level, but he appears low on confidence at the moment and Monk has got to find a way to get the best out of him and get him firing again.

He is a very useful player for Monk to have in his squad and if he can find a way to get the best out of him, he could have big role to play for the Owls this season.

More balance to the defence

Monk opted to go with a back four for his first game in charge and they did a good job, restricting Huddersfield to limited chances and helping to keep a clean sheet.

However, there was something sightly unusual about his defensive selection and it's definitely something he should address.

Interestingly, three of Monk's back four were naturally right-sided defenders - Liam Palmer, Dominic Iorfa and Moses Odubajo - making his defence rather unbalanced.

This wasn't a huge problem at the weekend but it's definitely something for Monk to think about going forward.
