Leeds United forward Dan James believes their upcoming match against Middlesbrough will be difficult because they are a great team led by a great coach.
Leeds United are in excellent form, currently sitting third in the Championship, eight points behind league leaders Leicester City. The Whites are the league’s only unbeaten home team this season.
Daniel James has played a significant role in this, as his five goals and four assists this season have propelled The Whites to an impressive start to the season. James believes the game against Middlesbrough will be a difficult task:
“This is a significant victory for us.” Returning to winning ways, we have 13 points from a possible 15, and we must maintain that pace. Everything is going swimmingly here [on Elland Road]. Every time we play here, the fans are on our side. We have to try to keep that form and get as many results as possible.”
“It’s difficult to get back into it after internationals.” Middlesbrough will be a difficult opponent; they have a great manager, and it will be a tough one. They are a great football team, and it will be great for the fans.”
This season, James has been in fantastic form and has made his mark on the team. He began the season as a rotation player and is now one of the first names on the team roster.
James scored his fifth goal of the season in Wednesday’s 3-1 win over Swansea City, latching onto a pass from Georginio Rutter.
He’ll have to keep up his form when The Whites face Middlesbrough on Saturday.
