Alan Shearer says Chelsea 'couldn't handle' Leeds United star Brenden Aaronson on Sunday. The American scored his first goal for Leeds as the Whites romped to a 3-0 victory over Thomas Tuchel's side.
Aaronson has impressed during his start to life at Leeds, but his strike against Chelsea was his first goal for the club after being cruelly denied a goal against Wolves on his debut.
The 21-year-old has caught the eye with his work-rate and was named by Shearer in his Premier League Team of the Week for his efforts.
Shearer said: "Chelsea couldn't handle his runs from deep and he was rewarded for pressurising Edouard Mendy with a goal."

The Premier League's all-time leading goalscorer also named another Whites player in his Team of the Week. Jack Harrison was selected in Shearer's XI after providing an assist for the third game in a row and netting his first goal of the season to round-off the scoring.
"(Harrison) produced his third assist of the season and scored a goal to complete a memorable afternoon for Leeds," said Shearer.
There was more Leeds representation in Shearer's team, with Jesse Marsch named as the Premier League Manager of the Week. "His game plan worked to perfection," Shearer said. "His side recorded a famous victory."
Shearer's Premier League Team of the Week in full: Pope (Newcastle United); Trippier (Newcastle United), Saliba (Arsenal), Malacia (Manchester United); Almiron (Newcastle United), Aaronson (Leeds United), Odegaard (Arsenal), Harrison (Leeds United); Saint-Maximin (Newcastle United), Rashford (Manchester United), Adams (Southampton).
