Pablo Hernandez continued to show why he is the main technician in the Leeds United midfield by creating 10 chances yesterday.

According to Who Scored, the veteran midfielder carved out an impressive 10 key passes for team-mates.

Leeds went on to win the game 2-1 to keep pace with the Championship’s top two: Norwich City and Sheffield United.

But it was a hard-fought victory against a struggling Bolton Wanderers team, who did threaten Leeds during periods of the game.

Nonetheless, Marcelo Bielsa’s faith in Hernandez appeared to pay off as he continues to lay on opportunities for his team-mates.

But the 33-year-old did not pick up an assist yesterday, proving that Leeds need to be more clinical in front of goal.

Despite Hernandez creating chances, Leeds only managed two goals; one was a penalty and the other was a speculative ball that ended up in the net.

Bielsa will be hoping his other strikers – Patrick Bamford and Tyler Roberts – can improve in front of goal with Kemar Roofe out injured.

Hernandez has seven goals and 11 assists this season in 26 Championship games and here are some things Leeds fans said about his Bolton performance.
