“Poveda looks a little gem. Very lively. A player there. #LUFC”
“I know it’s Crawley town we’re playing but isn’t Poveda just a breath of fresh air?”

Have you been impressed by Poveda so far?
Yes
No
Given how the 20-year-old has only made nine substitute appearances for Leeds in the Premier League so far this season, it’s good to see him starting a match and showing Bielsa what he is capable of.
Hopefully, the winger can put in a similar performance in the second half as he did in the first.
