Leeds: Fans offer praise to Reading’s Ovie Ejaria

Leeds United moved top of the Sky Bet Championship yesterday evening against Reading as they beat the Royals 1-0 with a late goal from Jack Harrison.

The Whites have managed to earn themselves two big wins in the last two games with them getting late goals against both Luton and then the men from the Madejski last night.

Clearly, they are able to keep going right until the end of the game and this current knack could well get them back into the Premier League come the end of the season.

Even so, some Reading players did give them trouble last night with Ovie Ejaria – the Royals’ best player this season so far – causing the Leeds midfield real issues with his performance in the middle of the park.

It saw some Leeds fans praise him on Twitter, too, so let’s take a look at the best of the reaction to his display:

Totally agree. Ejaria played Phillips off park today, probs 1st time this season that’s happened. Looks a top player. Defensively you looked really solid, made it difficult for us today.

Tell you what Ejaria and Eze are literally the same player aren't they? I don't just mean in terms of lid, same movement etc. #lufc #QPR #RFC

Some really neat touches from Ejaria this half. He's causing Kalvin Phillips more trouble than Eze did. #ReadingFC #LUFC
