Hernandez on Valencia winger Helder: Leeds boss Bielsa good for him

Castellon midfielder Pablo Hernandez is happy seeing Helder Costa making an impact with Valencia..

The pair played together at Leeds, where Helder is on-loan at VCF from.

Hernandez told Radio Marca: "Against Villarreal, Helder played a great game not only in attack but also in defence, which is something that is non-negotiable with (Jose) Bordalás.

"The good thing about Helder is that he comes from two years with (Marcelo) Bielsa who, I know from experience, demands a lot in defence, physically demands a lot from the players and there I think he has gained from his experience with Bielsa.

"He showed it against Villarreal, and he is a player who is going to show it a lot. I think he will have a place in the team."
