Agreed Dave. That first half was as good as anything since Bielsa’s good days… although, Huddersfield were hapless. A special mention for the number 16 who is still rocking in a cupboard somewhere in the away changing room after trying to contain Summerville for 45 minutes.
I’ve got no problem with taking the foot off the gas and essentially ‘resting’ everyone, with Leicester coming up on Friday. One thing to mention was how much off the pace the old guard looked when they came on Bamford, Cooper and especially Ayling. I would hate to try and mark Rutter.
