Former Leeds midfielder David Norris is urging manager Daniel Farke to stick with Joel Piroe, despite his recent scoring drought. Piroe’s last goal came on October 4 against Sunderland, and after a goalless draw with Bristol City, some are questioning his role. Speaking to MOT Leeds News, Norris said, “It’s a tough call when a player shines off the bench, but Piroe is still the best finisher at the club. Leeds should keep faith in him for now.”
Leeds United face key decisions in attack, balancing their £12m investment in Joel Piroe, who’s outscored Mateo Joseph this season, with the need for consistent results. Daniel Farke’s system has generally been effective, but it faltered against Bristol City, with Piroe barely involved and Joseph creating just one half-chance after coming on.
Leeds United also has Patrick Bamford and Joe Gelhardt in the attacking mix, though both are struggling for significant playing time. As the club assesses its attacking options, fans will be eager to see how the situation unfolds.In other news, Darren Bent has praised Sam Byram for his recent performances, highlighting a noteworthy moment he was spotted involved in.
