Leeds United’s poor record at Millwall continued at the weekend as Marcelo Bielsa’s side tasted defeat at The Den.

The Whites conceded twice in the first half and a second half revival was too little too late.

Former Leeds defender Tony Dorigo tried to pick out the positives, and named three Whites players who managed to impress him.

Posting on his personal blog, Dorigo stated: “There were some excellent individual performances, Ben White, Stuart Dallas and Jack Harrison showing up well.

“I’m particularly pleased by Harrison’s performance as he started the season on fire but hasn’t pushed on in the last few games. Someone with his ability should affect each game; he’s capable of getting around the ten-goal mark as well.”

Despite Dorigo’s encouragement, Harrison’s performance was criticised by supporters.

Harrison provided his first assist of the season by setting up Ezgjan Alioski’s goal in the first minute just after half-time.

Leeds could not find the equaliser and head into the international break with a loss, sitting in fifth, having won just two of their previous five games.
