These Leeds United fans showed their appreciation towards centre-back Ben White after a Phil Hay tweet.
White has played a staggering 1530 minutes across 17 appearances in the Championship so far this season. The 22-year-old also got his first assist of the season when playing against Luton Town, which sparked this mass appreciation for the young centre-back. White also finished the match against the Hatters with a brilliant WhoScored rating of 7.28/10.
Ben White again. Best player on show today:https://t.co/tDl7jDqm4j

He’s so so good. Could see him at Barcelona.

Correct. Sensational.

The 22-year-old centre-back has been a key part of the amazing Leeds defence all season, with the Whites only conceding 10 goals in 17 matches so far.
Cracking assist today

What Do We Think?
White is, clearly, a very important player for Leeds this season, so it’s crucial that the 22-year-old can stay clear of injuries and suspensions. He definitely has the appreciation of the Peacocks fans, which is amazing when you consider just how early in his career he is and the fact that he had never played any football above the League One level prior to his move to Elland Road.
