On a day when Leeds United showed their ability to shrug off setbacks with a 4-1 victory over Huddersfield Town, manager Daniel Farke called Georginio Rutter a role model for winning around fans.
Crysencio Summerville and Dan James each scored twice in a storming first half which buried memories of Wednesday's 1-0 defeat at Stoke City. Both were substituted in the second period as was Rutter, who got as big an ovation from a crowd who have sensed he needs their support. His £35m January signing was one of last season’s worst, the now-20-year-old unable to settle or even score. He has only notched twice this term, but Elland Road is willing him to succeed.
If a player is willing to improve our supporters are also willing to give his reward. Georgie can be a role model for how to win the supporters back.” Farke was delighted his team has not lost consecutive games under him. “You can have a brilliant run of 20 wins but if there's one poor half or one poor result, it's always difficult to show a reaction.” Summerville scored twice in the first half and made both James' goals after the pair were rested to the bench at Stoke.
