Jack Harrison has detailed the difference in mentality in the Leeds United squad following the 3-0 win over Watford on Saturday afternoon. The Whites moved nine points clear of the relegation zone with a comfortable success at Vicarage Road, stretching their unbeaten run to four games in the process.
Leeds started the game on the front foot and opened the scoring midway through the first half as Raphinha fired the ball home from the edge of the box. Watford had a couple of opportunities to equalise but weren't able to take them, with Imran Louza coming the closest as he curled a free-kick wide.
And the Hornets were punished as Rodrigo doubled Leeds' advantage, before Harrison put the game to bed in the 85th minute with a well-taken long-range strike. It is a win that has given Leeds some breathing space at the bottom after Everton's victory over Manchester United in the early kick-off.

More importantly, the Whites are beginning to build some momentum after suffering six successive defeats before the 2-1 success over Norwich City last month. Jesse Marsch's side have picked up 10 points from a possible 12 and Harrison has explained the change Marsch has made to the West Yorkshire side.
He told LUTV: "It is very different [to a month ago], and that is football. In the league, you can be under more pressure or less pressure based on teams around you and points.
"For us, as a team, it is important to stay composed, control what we can control and take it game by game. Since Jesse has arrived, we've been doing that and the results have come with our performances as well. We're at a crucial point of the season and we're doing well, so we now need to finish the season strong.
"For us as a team, we are always ambitious and we are going to get as many points as we can. I feel it was a massive result for us and we need to keep pushing against Palace."
