Leeds winger featured at left-back in win.
Leeds United star Ezgjan Alioski has come in for consistent criticism for his performances in recent weeks.
The Macedonia international has managed to infuriate fan, and his inability to stay onside has been a large factor.
Last night he was deployed as a left-back, to combat the injury suffered to summer signing Barry Douglas.
Stuart Dallas failed in the role against Blackburn and Alioski got a chance against Ipswich, and managed to impress.
It certainly helped that Alioski played as a full-back for former side Lugano.
He was solid at the back as Leeds kept a clean sheet and he certainly seemed to win a few supporters over with his ability to adapt.
One problem was that his replacement on the wing Jack Harrison had a poor game, but Alioski did what he could to impress and came close to scoring himself with a foray forward.
If Barry Douglas is not fit for Leeds’ weekend game against Nottingham Forest, then Alioski should have done enough to retain his place.
