Pascal Struijk is a versatile defender who has been with Leeds United since 2018. A product of the Ajax youth academy, Struijk initially played as a central defender but has also been deployed as a left-back and defensive midfielder due to his ability to read the game and break up opposition attacks. His composure on the ball and strength in aerial duels have made him one of Leeds� most reliable defenders over the past few seasons.

Struijk got his break in Leeds United's promotion campaign and has since matured into one of their most consistent performers in the squad. His adaptability across the backline has earned him significant playing tim. For Leeds United's first season back in the Championship, Struijk was one of the best performers until injury caused him to miss the second half of the season. Fit again for the 2024/25 season he will be hoping to be a key player in another promotion winning team.

We'll never know, he didn't get it recinded for his tackle on Harvey Elliot which wasn't even a foul, just an unfortunate outcome to a tangle of legs IIRC

Yeah seems a bit like the Haaland offside goal and the referee watching it on video got too caught up in the actual foul and didn't pay any attention as to the fact the ball had gone too far away that the Sunderland player wouldn't have got to it. Really should have been someone there saying to him/her yeah it's a foul but do you really think he'd have got the ball. THink whoever made the decision just spent so long trying to work out if it was an actual foul.

Again people will say get rid of VAR but again the video of the incident was correct (which has led to it being overturned) - it is just that we seem to have cretins making decisions.
