Leeds United have some spectacular individuals in their group such as Pablo Hernandez and Pontus Jansson, but there are some unsung heroes too playing their role in the promotion bid.

The Whites currently sit second in the Championship table and have just four games remaining to try secure automatic promotion.

Marcelo Bielsa’s team have a three-point cushion over Sheffield United in third and are dreaming of a return to the top flight.

Argentinian boss has shown trust in several players this season and loanee Jack Harrison is one of them.

The 22-year-old has been on a season-long loan at Elland Road from Manchester City and has now made 36 appearances across all competitions for the Yorkshire giants.

He’s certainly not a spectacular player that gets fans off their seats, but is a steady option in the XI and his consistent hard working performances have made him a regular starter.

Harrison is a winger that shows a tremendous work-rate and often helps out the full-back behind him to defend.

Meanwhile, he’s got decent pace and has shown he’s got great movement when coming off the touchline into central areas.

The Englishman has just four goals and three assists all season, but has chipped in with some crucial moments.

He scored the winner against Sheffield Wednesday at the weekend to give Leeds the advantage in the promotion race with a deft flick at the near post.

Many may have doubted Bielsa’s continued faith in Harrison considering his goal output, but he brings so much more to the team and has been an inspired loan signing.
