A lot of Leeds United fans love a video released by their club, showing the Leeds-U23 side scoring a superbly worked goal in this afternoon’s 2-2 draw with Wolverhampton Wanderers.
The move started with a ball from Oliver Casey to Stuart McKinstry, he then sent the ball through a Wolves defender’s legs before jinking past another one and shooting.
Should Leeds use both McKinstry and Hudson in the first team?
Yes, they look good
No, too early
His first effort was saved by the goalkeeper but came back out to McKinstry, who slotted the ball home before Ryan Edmondson could steal his goal.
This footage has gone down brilliantly on Twitter with many Whites supporters who loved the nutmeg to give McKinstry the chance.
36' WHAT A GOAL! Miazek pulls off a great double save, McKinstry superbly drives up the pitch and into the Wolves box. His first strike is saved, but he knocks home the rebound! 0-2 pic.twitter.com/1OvAy2aXfT

Other Leeds fans, though, were more impressed by the ball from Casey.
What about that assist and play from our left back!

Great goal but a word for the left back. He plays it the Bielsa way. ??????

Loved the contribution from Hudson at LB, great composure to stay on the ball until there was a good option for him. Really caught my eye in the 1st half #lufc

What do we think?
This was a very well-worked goal from Leeds, and it shows that Marcelo Bielsa’s influence can be seen at all levels.
The composure that Casey showed at left-back was impressive, and McKinstry showed excellent pace and ability to create the opening for himself.
Leeds have a few talented youngsters, including Illan Meslier and Robbie Gotts, and if McKinstry and Casey can keep this up, then they could be in the first team soon as well.
