Some Leeds United fans have raved about Crysencio Summerville on Twitter and believe that he is better than Elland Road first-team player Helder Costa.

Summerville was in action for Leeds against Fleetwood Town on Friday.

The 19-year-old winger started the match at Highbury Stadium and played for the entire 90 minutes.

Although Mark Jackson’s side lost the match 2-1, Leeds fans watching it were impressed by the display produced by the Netherlands Under-19 international winger.

Well, some of them anyway, as you can see below.

Adam Forshaw was the only senior figure in the Leeds starting lineup, which was full of young and talented players.

Summerville was a class act throughout his time on the pitch.

The 19-year-old created his own chance to score, but Alex Cairns in the Fleetwood net denied him.

The winger made some good runs down the wing and linked up well with his teammates.

The Yorkshire Evening Post reported this month that Summerville is in demand, with clubs in Belgium and the Netherlands willing to sign him on loan.

However, as you can see from the tweets below, some Leeds fans do not want Summerville to leave on loan and want him to get the nod ahead of Costa in the first-team squad next season.
