Leeds United fans would have been thrilled with the 4-0 win vs Bristol City, but one thing seemed to be missing.
That one thing being Harry Gray not making a cameo after his debut, which went down as a massive hit.
The 16-year-old seems to be living the dream at the moment as Gray labelled his debut as ‘special’ which any boyhood Leeds fans would agree with.
Daniel Farke clearly has the deserie to tread carefully with the promising youngster who will have to be nurtured effectively.
The young striker got a bit carried away during the game, and has to be brought back down to earth.
What Leeds United staff member said to Harry Gray
Gray will be hoping to follow the footsteps of the family after his brother Archie and his great-uncle Eddie.
Eddie Gray was in tears for Harry’s debut as he will no doubt be the proudest person out of anyone.
However, the Leeds legend himself will know that his great nephew has to stay grounded, and he found that out firsthand from Whites coach Chris Domogalla.
With Farke preparing substitutes as Leeds had a healthy lead, Gray thought he was part of the batch coming on.
It was Patrick Bamford and Largie Ramazani who stepped forward, but Gray got the wrong idea with Domogolla saying ‘no, not you, go warm up’ according to journalist Graham Smyth.
A harsh reality for Gray, who will have been itching to get on for his second Ellannd Road experience.
Gray development gives more reason why Farke should stay at Leeds
With the main query still being whether Farke remains in his post, Gray out of all people will want him in charge.
It was a bold decision to give the youngster his debut that early, but what a moment it was for Leeds fans.
The fanbase has taken to him straight away, but the only way he can reach his full potential is if Farke stays.
After his work with Archie, with Harry next in line, the signs are already showing how the manager and player understand eachother and can create a dynasty at Leeds.
If a new manager comes in, Gray joining Tottenham might become a reality, so Farke shouldn’t go anywhere for his sake.
