Leeds United fans comment and react to Saiz opening brace vs Bristol City

Leeds United were a team that started the season at a gallop, charging to the top of the Sky Bet Championship like a thoroughbred. It wasn’t to last.

Seven games in, 17 points gained and top of the table assured, Leeds United were looking imperious to the point of arrogance. That all came to nothing as the Whites stumbled to just one more win in their last five games.

Only a scraped Elland Road win showed any positivity between losses to Millwall, Cardiff City, Sheffield Wednesday and Reading. From conquerors to conquered in the space of just five games as positive turned to negative with almost consummate ease.

Bristol City were unbeaten in 12 games heading in to today’s encounter at Ashton Gate, with many Leeds United fans fearing the worse – fearing that a proper spanking at the hands of a surging Robins side.

That fear has been alleviated somewhat with a blistering start to the game – with Jedi attacking midfielder Samu Saiz the scorer of two early, and most welcome, goals.

0-1 on 4 minutes

0-2 on 14 minutes

These goals put Leeds into a very good position early in the game, two-up with less than 15 minutes on the clock.

Are Leeds United back to their imperious, swashbuckling former selves from the start of the season? With the Whites two to the good at the half, is this evidence that they are back to their table-topping form? Who cares, it looks like United have turned the corner and put their last few games of inadequacy and non-performance behind them.
