A lot of Leeds United fans are delighted that Stuart Dallas has had his very own piece of artwork created for him by the ‘Burley Banksy,’ a dedicated Leeds fan who decorates the city with Leeds United themed artwork.

The fact that Dallas has received one shows just how much he has improved as a player and become an established fan favourite at Elland Road.

Is Dallas the most improved player Leeds player under Bielsa?

Yes, he has transformed as a player

Many Whites supporters are delighted that Dallas has been given the recognition he deserves.

Other Leeds fans are pleased that Dallas has won them around.

What do we think?

The Northern Irish international arrived at Elland Road in 2015 and has made 169 appearances for the club, however, it was not until Marcelo Bielsa arrived that Dallas truly blossomed as a player.

Last season he made 30 appearances and played in four different positions as his versatility and work rate became crucial for Bielsa.

During the horrendous 4-2 defeat to Derby County, the 28-year-old showed his determination to try and get Leeds through with two well-taken goals.

This year he has found himself at right-back, left-back, right midfield and in the centre of midfield, but he has emerged as a player that Bielsa cannot do without, and though it took some time, he has now become a fan favourite at Elland Road.

This piece of artwork signals the transformation from a player many fans did not want to someone who they now couldn’t bear to be without.
