Here are our five talking points from Leeds United's 2-1 win over Bristol City at Elland Road in the Championship as Daniel James and Joel Piroe score the decisive goals
Losing to Southampton was by no means a disaster for Leeds United after taking a six-match unbeaten run down to Hampshire. The manner of that loss was concerning and it required a response with two immensely winnable home fixtures before the international break.
Kamara has been well used in recent weeks to keep the midfield fresh and to take the strain off of Gray, who started the first nine games of the season in a row with only late substitutions along the way to manage his minutes. And yet it feels like we went back to square one yesterday. Not only was Luke Ayling having to weigh up a straight scrap with Djed Spence for minutes this season, but Gray's now made as compelling a case anyone else to keep playing in this corner of the team. Gray scored while playing as a right-back for England at this year’s UEFA European Under-17 Championship, so he’s not a complete novice, but the leap from that to this is massive.
This is a Premier League-level defender who has been let down by his body for far too long. It would be fair to admit there were major reservations in the media about Leeds taking on a player with Byram’s injury record in the summer, especially to play a position where they have struggled for so long to find a reliable custodian.
The former Arsenal trainee dovetailed nicely with Ampadu, who prefers to sit, disrupt and distribute. Kamara roams further forward, nicks possession in tricky areas from the opposition, instigates turnovers and gets counters going.
