Leeds United will be looking to build on their trending form later this evening as they head to Middlesbrough in the Championship, and the pressure's after West Brom opened up a gap of seven points with a victory last night.

Marcelo Bielsa's side can go five points clear of the playoffs if they sink struggling Boro at the Riverside stadium.

A lot will be made of the Argentine's team selection considering there is ground to be made and the fact that they have only won 1-0 in their last two games.

One player who is sure to feature is Stuart Dallas after an impressive statistic was revealed about him this week by LUFCDATA.

The versatile 28-year-old has played 38 successive matches for the Yorkshiremen, playing in a variety of positions ranging from full-back to attacking midfield.

And it hasn't gone unnoticed as fans have been waxing lyrical about him on Twitter.

The Northern Irishman was described as a "superstar" as well as being Leeds' "Mr Reliable" whilst one supporter claimed he has had a blinding season so far.

Another fan added that he was "very underrated" and has improved substantially under the stewardship of Bielsa.

Dallas has scored three goals and provided one assist in 34 league appearances this term, per Transfermarkt.

It has led to glowing comparisons to players of yesteryear of legendary status at both Elland Road and across the world.

Leeds' "unsung hero" has adopted the name the 'Cookstown Cafu' for quite some time while one player many likened him to was former Whites utility man Paul Madeley, who played his entire career in west Yorkshire between 1963 and 1980.

There was even a comparison made to Liverpool veteran James Milner, a midfielder who came through the system at Elland Road.

Plenty of supporters believe Dallas is a serious contender for their Player of the Year award...

"Underrated" was regularly used to praise the 28-year-old while one supporter said his contribution under Bielsa was "outstanding" while another claimed he was dedicated and passionate.

A true test for any Leeds fan: Can you match these iconic images with the right results?

Based on the reaction above, Dallas could very much be Leeds' POTY come the end of the season; they'll be hoping that promotion will be the icing on the cake, too.
