And the Whites' manager says it will be "difficult" for Leeds United in the Premier League if they don't strengthen their attack before tonight's transfer deadline (Monday). The Whites have four points from a more-than-tricky opening trio of topflight games, having beaten Everton, lost at Arsenal and held Newcastle United to a o-o draw.

But, in each of the games, it has been obvious where the need is when it comes to further recruitment.

Leeds have scored just once in the three fixtures and that came from the penalty spot.

Against the Magpies, they got into dangerous situations and managed to create a number of chances but, other than Dominic Calvert-Lewin's late strike, Nick Pope had no saves to make.
