HEAVEN IN ELL

Rutter feeling at home after relegation woe

- DAVE CRAVEN

GEORGINIO RUTTER struggles to put into words how much he enjoys playing for Leeds - but knows they must keep pushing to achieve their ultimate goal.

United host Stoke tonight looking to bounce back from Saturday's 1-1.

draw at Huddersfield.

They had won nine Championship games on the bounce before being held by their struggling derby rivals.

There's little wonder many people reckon they'll secure automatic promotion, even if they have now slipped out of the top two.

And skilful striker Rutter is at the heart of it all, forming part of a dynamic attack in Daniel Farke's side.

The Frenchman has been at Elland Road for just over a year now after his club record £35.5m move from Hoffenheim.

At times as they slipped out of the Premier League, he looked like a fish out of water.
