Declan Rice is taking absolutely nothing for granted at Huddersfield but knows that a win would be “massive.”
Speaking to www.whufc.com he said: “Huddersfield haven’t had the best of starts, but they’re the home team, they won on Monday night and we’ll be going there as the away team trying to pick up the three points like we did last season,”
“That was a massive win for us last season and it would be massive for us again this season.”
The team go to Yorkshire in great heart after their win over Burnley with Rice saying it was precisely what was required after the Brightton, Leicester City and Spurs results.
The midfielder said: “I thought we controlled the game from the start and were unlucky not to score five or six goals, to be honest, with the amount of chances we created.
“We’ve needed three points for quite a while now. We should have had them last week at Leicester and, if we’d had eleven men on the pitch it would have been a different game.
“We played well at Brighton and against Spurs, but on Saturday the main thing was we got the three points and put in a really good performance.
“It was enjoyable to play in, but it was stressful! We went 1-0 up, then they equalised on the stroke of half-time, then we went 2-1 up and thought we were on the way.
“Their game, what they’re really effective at is putting balls into the box and winning headers, and they did that to make it 2-2, so we thought ‘here we go’, then we scored another two and heaved a sigh of relief!
“Now everyone is buzzing because it was a massive three points.”
