Huddersfield Town ready swoop for ex-Crystal Palace man, Barnsley handed boost in race for striker

Huddersfield Town finally ended their nine-game run without a win last weekend, when Carlos Corberan's side responded to their criticism with an emphatic 4-1 win against promotion-chasing Swansea City.

Despite scoring in added time at the end of the first half to go into the break at 1-1, the Terriers responded superbly, scoring three goals within the space of ten minutes after the restart.

Speaking after the win, the Terriers manager discussed the impact of January signing Duan Holmes, who scored twice in the second-half, and claimed: "For Holmes, it was important for him to have this performance today.

“He shows he is adapting to the team. It takes a bit of time sometimes, especially for him to play so many games in a row because before he arrived here he didn’t have enough minutes. Sometimes the player needs a little bit of time to adapt and perform like he did today."

Meanwhile, it was a weekend of mixed fortunes for the rest of Yorkshire's Championship sides, with Barnsley winning their third game on the bounce to keep up their momentum on the race for the play-offs, while relegation candidates Sheffield Wednesday and Rotherham United were both defeated.
