Leeds United has faced difficulties this summer, failing to strengthen their squad despite the transfer window closing on 1 September. The last addition to their squad was James Justin from Leicester on 25 August, leaving them without any new reinforcements despite calls from Daniel Farke for attacking options.
The Whites ended deadline day without any signings, prompting concerns from Jeff Stelling over their survival chances in the Premier League. Lukas Nmecha’s penalty goal in the opening victory against Everton remains Leeds’ only goal of the season, highlighting their struggles in front of goal compared to other teams like Sunderland and Burnley.
Farke acknowledged the challenges Leeds will face in the Premier League, a sentiment echoed by Jeff Stelling and Ally McCoist. Stelling expressed worries about Leeds’ ability to score goals, while McCoist questioned the club’s intent compared to other newly promoted teams like Sunderland.
The pressure is on Farke to work wonders with Leeds’ attacking lineup, with concerns persisting during the international break. The disappointment of a lackluster transfer window falls on the 49ers, with questions surrounding their commitment to strengthening the team. The once-promising summer excitement has turned into frustration, leaving Leeds United facing an uphill battle in the Premier League.
