# Leeds United: Fans loved Kalvin Phillips’ dig at Gabriel Agbonlahor

**Leeds United midfielder [Kalvin Phillips](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/leeds-united-transfer-rumours/leeds-united-paul-robinson-issues-kalvin-phillips-plea-to-whites-hierarchy/) has hit back at former Aston Villa striker Gabby Agbonlahor after the Whites’ 3-0 win over the Villans last night.**

Patrick Bamford proved to be the hero on the night for Marcelo Bielsa’s side as he scored a second half hat-trick to move Leeds up to third in the table ahead of today’s Premier League action.

Prior to the game between the two clubs, former Villa striker Agbonlahor, who was on punditry duty for Sky Sports for the match, [had been vocal about his thoughts on Bielsa’s side.](https://twitter.com/officialga11/status/1318293597570084864) He had also promised to delete his Twitter account if his former side failed to pick up three points.

> 😂😂😂😂I need a villa win or I’m deactivating 😂

Phillips, who was ruled out of his team’s win over Villa through a [shoulder injury](https://www.premierinjuries.com/injury-table.php), was quick to hit back at the pundit, and his “savage” post has gained plenty of response from Leeds fans.
