Leeds United are so close now, and can almost touch the Premier League.

It was another glorious weekend for Marcelo Bielsa’s side as they strolled to a 3-1 victory against Blackburn Rovers on Saturday.

Patrick Bamford managed to break his recent duck as he gave the visitors the lead inside seven minutes, with Kalvin Phillips curling in a stunning free-kick before the break.

Blackburn’s Adam Armstrong got a goal back for the hosts but it was left up to Mateusz Klich to seal the deal, which saw Leeds move four points clear at the top of the Championship.

The Athletic’s Phil Hay gave his view on Leeds’ latest victory after what has been a tough week for the team.

There is one word which Marcelo Bielsa needs to hammer into his players, consistency. This has been the trouble over recent years as far as missing out on the Premier League has been concerned.
