Jayden Bogle guilty of quality that will send Leeds United down as Burnley footage emerges
Jayden Bogle could play his part in sending Leeds United back to the Championship.
Bogle did perform well against Tottenham in the last outing at Elland Road, but didn’t continue that after the international break.
The 25-year-old started as Leeds fell to a 2-0 defeat against Burnley in a hugely disappointing showing for Daniel Farke’s side.
Leeds showed a lack of firepower at Burnley as the Clarets were able to take three points in what could prove to be a relegation six-pointer.
There isn’t much positivity in the Whites’ fan base right now, with Bogle’s impact potentially setting a trend that could send the LS11 club down.
Jayden Bogle missed golden chance vs Burnley
A Leeds analyst smashed his desk at Burnley after growing increasingly annoyed with what he saw from the away side at Turf Moor.
They weren’t alone in this, as the travelling faithful felt left down against a side that Farke’s side should be looking to beat.
The German’s men failed to get on the scoresheet in Lancashire, but they didn’t lack chances after generating 2.36 expected goals against Scott Parker’s side.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin was unable to take a single opportunity, but did push on as he looked to get his second Leeds goal.
Bogle missed arguably the best chance of the afternoon on 71 minutes as he somehow pushed the ball over the bar from barely two yards out.
Right-back or not, the £5million signing from Sheffield United last year should have scored and can’t afford to continue this if the Whites are to stay in the Premier League.
If this sort of wasteful attitude in front of goal is to seep into the rest of the squad, it could spell the beginning of the end for the Whites.
Leeds seriously lack firepower without Noah Okafor
Leeds brought in Okafor, and he has looked like a shrewd signing from AC Milan.
The 25-year-old has pace to burn, is very physical and has made the most of that by netting two in his four Premier League starts.
He was frustratingly absent against Burnley, and it was clear as the Whites failed to have many meaningful efforts on goal.
Calvert-Lewin, Jack Harrison and Brendan Aaronson aren’t really good enough for the level, and that was on show against Burnley.
Something needs to change and fast if Farke is to avoid the drop from the Premier League once again in his career.
