Leeds United hammered Norwich City 3-0 on Saturday afternoon.
Leeds United continued their stunning start to the season under Marcelo Bielsa as they hammered Norwich City 3-0 at Carrow Road on Saturday afternoon.
The Whites came from behind twice to earn a 2-2 draw at Swansea City in midweek, and were back to winning ways as they made the trip to Norfolk this weekend.
Mateusz Klich opened the scoring, pouncing to score after Ezgjan Alioski’s header was saved, though Alioski did get on the scoresheet himself, finishing off a stunning passing move.
Pablo Hernandez made it 3-0 to wrap up all three points for Leeds, who returned to the top of the Championship table with their victory as they continue to set the pace under Bielsa.
It was another outstanding team performance from Leeds, and any player could lay claim to being man of the match, but fans continue to be dazzled by midfielder Klich.
The Polish international, 28, was signed from FC Twente last summer but was frozen out by Thomas Christiansen before being sent out on loan to FC Utrecht for the second half of the campaign.
Now back at Leeds, Klich has thrived under Bielsa, and fans took to Twitter after his third goal in five games to hail his performance against Norwich.
Fans called Klich a ‘commanding presence’ and praised him for buying into Bielsa’s approach, with some wondering just how he was kept out of the side last season, adding that he is ‘way too good’ for the Championship and is like a new signing after a low-key first season at Elland Road.
