"I think the biggest problem for Burnley and Leeds is firepower. I agree with what we talked about earlier. I think all the newly promoted sides doing well is great for the Premier League. I'd like to see them all stay up, actually. But I don't think it'll be the case. Burnley struggled in front of goal. Leeds had only scored one, and that was a penalty, until Wolves kept giving them goals the other day."
"The Whites have made decent signings in the summer transfer window and with a player like Calvert-Lewin, who is experienced in the top flight, leading their attack, they can make a serious claim about staying in the Premier League. Farke would need goals and not only just from his attackers but from his squad as a whole. Leeds' recent win against Wolves would give them confidence and prove that they can win points against potential relegation candidates giving them edge in the latter part of the season."
Leeds United have seven points from their first five Premier League matches following promotion, creating early distance from the relegation zone. Daniel Farke manages a squad strengthened by summer signings, including Dominic Calvert-Lewin, who brings top-flight experience to the attack. Pundit Danny Murphy warns that a lack of firepower and limited goal output could endanger survival. Leeds had only scored one goal, and that was a penalty, until recent Wolves fixtures. Farke needs goals from his attackers and contributions across the squad to sustain results, and the win at Wolves provides a confidence boost for tougher fixtures ahead.
