According to Dominic Matteo, Georginio Rutter has a physique similar to that of legendary former Leeds United players Mark Viduka and Alan Smith.
Rutter, who moved to Leeds during the winter transfer window, appeared lost in the Premier League before finding his footing this season.
He and Joel Piroe have established a strong front-row scoring combo, and he has already scored twice for the Yorkshire giants.
Given the things Rutter has been attempting on the field for Leeds, Matteo said that it is obvious that Rutter is playing with more confidence this season and that this has improved him as a player.
He emphasized the necessity of the Frenchman maintaining consistency, but he also stated that the forward possesses the physical presence on the field comparable to former Leeds strikers Viduka and Smith.
The former Leeds great claimed on LUTV that the player has the talent but had not utilized it previous season.
The key to success, especially for a striker who scores a few goals, is confidence.
You must do that again and again because the Championship can be harsh at times. The next game is against Southampton.
The confidence of a striker who is scoring and setting up goals is the most crucial factor in football, according to experts.
“What I particularly liked about him is that he is using his presence to knock guys off the ball, which I haven’t seen before.
As with many great center forwards, he appears to be becoming stronger and fitter.
“Comparing Rutter to someone like Viduka and Smith, you knew what you were getting, and hopefully, Rutter can be the same as he has so much quality,” said Rutter.
When Leeds plays Southampton at the St. Mary’s later today, Rutter will probably start.
