'Best signing we've made in years' - Leeds United fans pick out key man for praise after Crystal Palace win

Marcelo Bielsa's side secured an impressive 2-0 victory over Crystal Palace on Monday night.

Goals from Jack Harrison and Patrick Bamford lifted the Whites into the top half of the Premier League with all three points.

It was Raphinha, though, who stole the show with a stunning performance that earned him the man of the match gong.

The 24-year-old winger put in an almost unstoppable showing against the Eagles, leaving defender Gary Cahill in his wake with a turn outside the box that sent fans wild on social media.

The Brazilian arrived from French outfit Stade Rennes in the summer for £17m and just 17 league appearances into his Leeds career has already got people talking.

Here's what fans have been saying across social media in today's supporters talking point:

@LeighNicholson Really good performance tonight. Bitterly cold, but that didn’t matter once Raphinha lit things up. Gary Cahill will still be wandering up and down Elland Road wondering where everyone went. And a clean sheet too. We march on. #lufc

@ell_spencex Raphinha is my favourite signing since Max Gradel. Two kings.

@mattym2011 30 years old but i’m honestly i’m this close to buying a shirt with ‘Raphinha’ on the back....what a player!

@tommy_lufc Raphinha looks completely unmoved when someone else scores, it’s great. Seems more or less contemptuous of everyone & everything. People talk about elite players having that killer instinct & you can see it. #lufc

@TSSLUFC Raphinha though. What a signing.

@BenShires Just imagine the reception that Raphinha will get once we’re allowed back in Elland Road...

@Radebe_Leeds Raphinha has just sent Gary Cahill back to Bolton Wanderers with that piece of trickery.

@aimzk1990 My god, get me back in a packed Elland Road so I can watch Raphinha turning defenders #lufc

@ConorJHMcG Someone padlock Raphinha away in June. Freak.

@Mr_Tasker If we are using Leicester as the model to emulate, Raphinha will be gone at some point. I reckon we'll get another season out of him, but he'll turn over a huge profit. I'm just going to enjoy his brilliance and not get too emotionally attached. #lufc

@RyanDG93_ Can we just take a moment to appreciate the fact that Raphinha had Cahill all over the shop last night. Making him look like some amateur. I've said it before and I'll keep saying it, easily the BEST signing we've made in years. #LUFC

@medds14 My idol growing up was Harry Kewell, a wand of a left foot, skills galore, (memories/feelings changed when he signed for them Turks) IMO we've not had a winger like him since, step forward Raphinha, has the potential to be that good #Leeds

@El_Loco_Jo None of us know what will happen tomorrow, let alone next season, so any chance we can just enjoy the here & now and stop speculating on Raphinha's next club and how much we'll get for him? We finally get a gem of a player and all I see are posts about him leaving #lufc
