Leeds United are top of the Championship after claiming a 2-0 win at Wigan Athletic yesterday. A brace from Patrick Bamford proved enough for Leeds to come away with all three points against 10-man Wigan, who had Joe Williams sent off in the first-half. 

Several Leeds players again impressed, but Jack Harrison has certainly had a positive start to the season. 

Signed on loan for a second Elland Road stint this summer, the left-winger has looked a far more complete player then he did in his first Leeds spell. 

Even Marcelo Bielsa admits as much. Speaking to the Yorkshire Evening Post after the game, the Argentine discussed his wide-man’s improvement.

“He has improved a lot. Last year we didn’t see the number of skills that we had and now he is able to show the number of skills he has.”

It certainly took Harrison a while to get going last season so his impressive start to the new campaign will have Leeds fans very excited. 

Against Wigan, he consistently threatened down the left-hand side and showcased some sublime dribbling ability throughout the game.

It could be that the Manchester City winger needed a full season to integrate himself into his new club and is now finally showcasing his best assets to the fans at Elland Road. 

Leeds supporters will just hope he can continue such form for the entire campaign.
