Leeds United could have put forward a few names for the Championship's September Player of the Month but an Elland Road old boy has won it and it's difficult to argue.
The Whites put together a run of four clean sheets in the month, which shone a kind light on the likes of ever-present Illan Meslier and Pascal Struijk, and the 3-0 demolitions of Millwall and Watford reflected particularly well on some of Daniel Farke's attackers. But when it came down to pure end product there was no looking past Leeds academy export Jack Clarke, thanks in chief to his six goals in September's five outings.
And by the end of August, with the transfer window about to shut, there was some noise, in the form of a report that neither Clarke nor his agent were happy with how the interest and bids from the Clarets were handled. Whatever the level of accuracy in that suggestion, Clarke did not let a situation develop that would hamper him or the club.
