It’s been a tough 2020 but the single scariest moment was the first quarter of the game against Man City. Rodrigo will be the saviour this season.

Leeds United finally did to Hull on Saturday what they've been threatening for a while now, scoring four goals and making a huge statement in the Championship. 

That's four wins in a row and four clean sheets after a real slump in form that was threatening their automatic promotion hopes.

Man City loanee Jack Harrison played one of his best games for Leeds at the KCOM and was really unlucky not to get on the scoresheet.

Athletic journalist Phil Hay tweeted on Sunday to say, "Not sure Jack Harrison has played better than he did yesterday. A nightmare to contain. Could be Leeds’ for £8m in the summer."

That's the price of the option Leeds have to make his signing permanent after two seasons on loan, and the way he's playing at the moment that's looking like it could be one of the bargain buys of the summer.

Harrison is getting better all the time and he could be landing in the Premier League with Leeds just at the right time.

Plenty of Leeds fans agree and think that they will be landing a "genuinely world-class" player.

It's credit to Marcelo Bielsa, who has obviously worked closely with Harrison after recognising his potential and sticking with a player who's not always delivered what his talent has suggested he should.

Keeping hold of Harrison on a permanent deal will likely depend on Leeds getting promoted, although they could still potentially buy him for £8m and sell him on for a profit if they don't go up.

However, Leeds are back on track for the top flight and it means that Harrison could be bombing down the flanks in the Premier League under the watchful eye of Bielsa next season.

These Leeds fans desperately want to see that happen...
