There is no doubt that goals have been a recent issue, however, with Leeds failing to score in their last four league games. An incorrect dismissal and the failure to award a clear penalty haven’t helped, but the attack has dried up a little with Dominic Calvert-Lewin not as free-scoring as he once was.

James Justin has been excellent all season but right now, Leeds need attacking quality out wide and Bogle is the man for it. Much more comfortable pushing into a right-wing role when Rodon moves out wide.
