Leeds winger Aaronson: This career a rollercoaster

Leeds United winger Brenden Aaronson admits he's struggled in his first season in England.

The USA international feels he was too hard on himself earlier in the campaign.

He told Leeds-Live: “He (Gracia) sees what I'm trying to do and he knows, everybody knows, goals and assists come.

“It's like this, it's like a rollercoaster throughout your career and that's where I'm at right now.

“During a period of time with Jesse I was getting so frustrated with myself, getting so hard on myself, coming out to training and just finishing every single day [with] like 50 balls. At that moment I don't think that was best for me because I need to come back, relax, don't focus on the goal so much, just go out and play your game.

“That's what you can do for the team. That was definitely a tough time, but having Javi here, he's taught me a lot so far, I really enjoy playing under him. It's been great."
