The defender is on loan from Leeds United to Fleetwood Town.
Leeds United loanee Lewie Coyle helped Fleetwood Town to a much-needed 2-0 win against Rochdale on Tuesday night.
Fleetwood hadn’t won in nine attempts before then, a run which prompted the appointment of former Leeds midfielder John Sheridan in place of ex-Whites boss Uwe Rosler two-thirds of the way through.
But Sheridan, whose new side had drawn all three of their previous fixtures under his reign, secured his first maximum courtesy of second-half goals from Paddy Madden and Jordy Hiwula against the Dale.
Their defence also played its part however, and, according to some Fleetwood fans, Coyle was the standout performer on the night.
Leeds fans have also kept a close eye on Coyle’s progress, and the 22-year-old’s latest offering has sparked a fresh discussion about his future at Elland Road, following speculation this week about a move for Barnsley full-back Andy Yiadom.
Hull-born Coyle still has two years to run on his Leeds contract after this season, and will hope to break into Paul Heckingbottom’s plans when he returns from Fleetwood.
Should Coyle be considered for a first-team place next term?
