I\u2019m very grateful for the opportunity and even more grateful for the guidance that Micky (McIlorum) and Jez (Litten) have shown me this year.\u201d<\/p>\n Leyland, who is still only 22, added:<\/p>\n \u201cThey\u2019ve helped me with my general passing and skill, deception and knowing when to run and not to run.
