Aaronson making his mark in the Prem

Brendan Aaronson has received his fair share of criticism over the last couple of years in England and the USA. The diminutive, spark plug for the northern England club always works hard, but his end product at times lacks.

After 9 goals in the EFL Championship last season, Aaronson has 4 goals and 3 assists through 20 games for Leeds in the Premier League this season.

Aaronson contributed a brace last weekend for Leeds in a 4-3 thrilling loss to Newcastle. Today Aaronson came off the bench to help Leeds into the 4th round of the FA Cup, as Leeds dumped Derby County 3-1.

Surely Aaronson is gaining more attention from USMNT coach Mauricio Pochettino. Aaronson, who is a mainstay in the USMNT squad is pushing for a starting role for the red, white, and blue ahead of World Cup '26.

Can Aaronson continue his recent stellar form and help Leeds stay up? If so, he will be an easy choice for Poch and staff for the Big Show this summer.
