Leeds United have had four players named in the latest Championship team of the week after their 4-1 win over Huddersfield Town.
As per WhoScored, Sam Byram, Dan James, Crysencio Summerville and Georginio Rutter were all included in the XI thanks to their contributions in the West Yorkshire derby.
Leeds dismantled the Terriers at Elland Road as they quicky bounced back from the disappointment of defeat at Stoke by racing into a 4-0 half-time lead.
Summerville was undoubtedly the star of the show has he scored twice, and set up another two before being substituted on the hour mark to hand him a rest ahead of the trip to Leicester City on Friday.
After the game James hailed Summerville’s display as ‘excellent’, and to back that up, he became the first player in the Championship this season to be handed a 10/10 rating by WhoScored.

James, who was recalled into the starting XI alongside Summerville after being named on the bench at Stoke, also scored twice at Elland Road, as his season continues to get better and better.
Rutter, meanwhile, did not manage to get on the scoresheet but was once again a level above almost everyone around him when in possession.
On top of assisting Summerville’s second goal, Rutter created two big chances and completed five successful dribbles as the Town defence, like many others this season, couldn’t live with him.
Byram was the only defender from Daniel Farke’s side to make it as he was substituted before Leeds actually allowed Huddersfield to net a late consolation goal.
As ever, the 30-year-old was fantastic both offensively and defensively, with his work down the left allowing Summerville to go and do his thing.
