Jack Harrison was not at his best for Leeds United during their recent game in the Premier League.

It certainly was a frantic game for Leeds United, as they were involved in a back-and-forth affair that eventually ended with both sides sharing the points in a 3-3 draw.

The game at Villa Park was one that you couldn’t keep your eyes off, as Aston Villa went into the break 3-2 up, with both of Leeds United’s goals coming from Daniel James, with Diego Llorente getting an equaliser for Marcelo Bielsa’s men in the second half.

So it was clear that defences weren’t exactly at the races, and one player who should have been looking to take advantage was Harrison out on the wing.

Harrison did not have the best of games at Villa Park, with SofaScore noting that he lost possession a stunning 23 times, on top of that he wasn’t able to complete many of his dribble attempts, only winning one of the six he attempted, whilst his defensive work can also be called into question, as he didn’t make a single tackle or interception.

He was given a rating of 6/10 by Leeds journalist Beren Cross for his performance, who described him as having a quieter game.

Should Jack Harrison be dropped for Leeds' next match?

Yes

Yes

No

No

This season certainly hasn’t been the best in terms of production for Harrison with just four goals and one assists to his name, with three of those goals coming in just one game against West Ham United.

Hopefully he’ll be able to pick things up between now and the end of the season, because Leeds certainly are not safe when it comes to safety in the Premier League, and they might need him to start producing between now and the end of the campaign to help guide them through and away from the drop zone.
