It was a huge opportunity for Leeds United to go in front.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWhen Nmecha rolls past the defender and gives it to Calvert-Lewin, you think that is going to be a goal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIs it a bad miss or is it good goalkeeping? I think it is a really bad finish, even though the keeper does well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cYou just feel he should score so many more goals; he just always seems to find the goalkeeper.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">No surprise Leeds are looking for a striker<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Leeds have been linked with several strikers ahead of the upcoming summer transfer window and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theleedspress.com\/top-striker-made-available-as-leeds-explore-ambitious-attacking-targets-51459\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">are being ambitious<\/a> in identifying targets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Juventus pair of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theleedspress.com\/leeds-united-frontrunners-to-sign-35m-striker-on-significant-wages-51290\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Lois Openda<\/a> and Jonathan David, and the club are looking at options in the Premier League as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is no surprise that Leeds are in the market for a striker, as while Dominic Calvert-Lewin has been a brilliant signing, his goals have come in bursts rather than in a consistent form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Leeds want to help Calvert-Lewin and bring in someone good enough to share the load with the former Everton man.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The former Everton man will be the main man again next season, but Leeds want an alternative and not be too dependent on one man again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Jamie Carragher Credit: Imago Images Leeds United manager Daniel Farke would have been disappointed that his side didn\u2019t&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[26],"class_list":["post-683","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","category-uncategorized","tag-leeds"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/agajahub.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/683","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/agajahub.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/agajahub.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agajahub.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agajahub.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=683"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/agajahub.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/683\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":684,"href":"https:\/\/agajahub.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/683\/revisions\/684"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/agajahub.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=683"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agajahub.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=683"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/agajahub.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=683"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
