Sends four crosses in win Aaronson registered two shots (zero on goal), four crosses (zero accurate) and two corners in Saturday's 1-0 victory versus Southampton.
Impact Aaronson played on the right wing, but he was seen trading roles with Jack Harrison from time to time. The United States international was active regardless of where he was playing, and it wouldn't be shocking if he maintains a starting role when Leeds take on Chelsea on Saturday.

Stays on bench after appendicitis Aaronson was in the hospital last week and surprisingly made the bench for Sunday's loss against Nottingham Forest, reports Tom Bogert.
Impact Aaronson was healthy enough to be on the bench Sunday, which means he should be good to go Wednesday. Fitness may be a question as will the managerial change, but he still figures to remain a key piece for Leeds going forward. On the downside he has one goal and two assists in 19 starts this season.

Takes two shots in scoreless draw Aaronson recorded two shots (one on goal) and one chance created in Sunday's 0-0 draw versus Brentford.
Impact Aaronson had a couple of opportunities wasted in front of goal though outside of that he delivered very little and continues his disappointing run of form in terms of fantasy formats. He hasn't had a major contribution since mid-November.
