On talkSPORT; Alan Brazil acknowledges that his presumption regarding the Leeds United move was incorrect.

Alan Brazil has acknowledged that Leeds United has, thus far this season, shown him to be incorrect.

The former Manchester United striker and talkSPORT commentator expressed his worry for Daniel Farke’s club when they sold some of their finest players, but they won their last two games to seal an undefeated August.

Burnley, a team expected to fight the Whites for a spot back in the Premier League come the business end of the season, will be the next opponent at Elland Road.

Brazil said, “I thought Leeds were going to struggle a bit with the players they’ve sold, but no,” in a live interview on talkSPORT Breakfast with Dean Saunders on September 13, at 06:58.

Leeds United is displacing the experts.

Leeds United still has one of, if not the best, squads in the Championship, despite finally being forced to transfer players to Premier League teams, like Georginio Rutter, Crysencio Summerville, and Archie Gray.

When the final whistle blew at Wembley, bringing an agonizing end to 2023–24, the club and Farke would have been perfectly prepared to lose some of their best players.

There are undoubtedly benefits: one of the biggest being securing a new deal for Willy Gnonto, who has been criticized for his prior attempts to leave Elland Road.

Leeds still has a tiny roster and is weak in several areas. Although they missed out on a number of targets, the situation improved after the transfer deadline when players like Manor Solomon, Ao Tanaka, and Isaac Schmidt showed up much later than expected.

There were some doubts following the season’s first two draws, but West Yorkshire’s faith has been restored by the team’s two victories and the window’s positive conclusion.
