Leeds midfielder Sean Longstaff was everywhere against Bournemouth on Saturday. <\/strong><\/p>\n

Longstaff put in a man-of-the match performance in the 2-2 draw<\/a>, registering an assist for Joe Rodon\u2019s goal before scoring one himself to put Leeds in the lead. <\/p>\n

Leeds will be kicking themselves after conceding a late equaliser<\/a>, but they still earned a valuable point to add to their impressive start to the season. <\/p>\n

Daniel Farke\u2019s<\/a> side hardly look like a team that will be battling against relegation this season. They have eight points from their opening six games in the Premier League, leaving them well clear of the bottom three. <\/p>\n

Longstaff<\/a> has been a dominant force, alongside Ethan Amapdu and Anton Stach in Leeds\u2019 midfield this season. <\/p>\n

The trio has helped Leeds<\/a> to dominate midfield battles in many of their Premier League games this season. <\/p>\n

Longstaff enjoyed his best game in a Leeds shirt on Saturday though, and not only for his goal contributions. The former Newcastle star put in a great defensive performance as well, winning the ball back countless times for his team. <\/p>\n

Data from Opta reveals that Longstaff creates seven chances for Leeds against Bournemouth, while winning 10 duels. No Leeds player has managed both of these achievements in a single game, since Opta began collecting this data.<\/p>\n

Farke says that Longstaff has emerged as a leader in the Leeds dressing room<\/a>, despite him only arriving at Elland Road this summer. <\/p>\n

The 27-year-old has certainly been leading by example on the pitch with his all-action displays. His performances alongside Stach and Amapadu have provided the foundation for Leeds\u2019 bright start to the Premier League. <\/p>\n

Longstaff regularly showed that he was capable of dominant midfield performances while he was at Newcastle. <\/p>\n
