Pablo Henrnadez was adored by the Leeds fans long before those behind closed doors games after lockdown... but that was when he cemented his place as a club legend.
In that final run of games, Bielsa had to nurse him through, managing an injury niggle in those 35 year old legs, and still, Hernandez pulled out moment of class after moment of class, none more so than the moment that means he'll be forever remembered in this grey and pink kit.
I've done a few Hernandez figures, but these are the first 2 in this kit. A kit that, in truth, a lot of people's first reaction to was: urgh! But also one that had so many great moments on the pitch, that, again, it will be written into folklore!
Sorry about the wordy(?) sentimental(?) post, but the culmination of 16 years of striving to get back to the top table was achieved by this man, in this kit. Gracias Pablo.
GoalaGoalaGoal.
