Leeds United boss Marcelo Bielsa spoke of how important Raphinha is to his plans after victory over Crystal Palace.

The Argentine has lamented the reduction of dribbling as a skill in football, but is delighted he can call on a player of Raphinha's flair and ability.

He said, "The dribble is always the most dangerous thing for a defence.

"It resolves all the problems that arise when a team sits back.

"It's an alternative to the combination play and, yes, this is difficult to find in some players. Of course, we desire a player who can dribble and resolve the situation without having to combine too much."
