“He was an ‘OUTSTANDING’ Gem with an opportunity to go to a top club”- Sheffield United manager Chris Wilder made an “OUTSTANDING” admission regarding Leeds United star, expressing regret over letting go of their star player to leeds, who is now outscoring their entire squad, ahead of Sheffield United clash
Leeds United will travel to Bramall Lane to face Sheffield United on Monday in what could be a pivotal match for the title race.
Following a crucial win over Sunderland, Leeds return to Championship action with another vital fixture in their push for promotion.
Sheffield United will host Leeds on Monday night, knowing that a win would propel them above Leeds and back to the top of the Championship table.
Chris Wilder has frequently mentioned Leeds this season and has made new comments ahead of the match, focusing on one specific player.
Chris Wilder Praises Jayden Bogle
Having worked together at Sheffield United, Wilder is well aware of Jayden Bogle’s abilities ahead of their reunion at Bramall Lane.
Bogle has been an essential player for Leeds this season, just as he was for the Blades in the past, a fact Wilder highlighted.
In quotes reported by The Star (20 February), Wilder said: “He was outstanding, and he’s a great kid. He had the chance to move to a top club. If I’m honest,
I don’t think we should have sold him. But that decision wasn’t mine. I want to build around our best players and keep them.
“Jayden was one of our best players last season, no doubt about it. I’d have liked to build around him, but that didn’t happen, and he’s gone on to have a great season.
“I’ll shake his hand before and after the match, but during the game, he’s an opponent. It’s game on.”
Bogle will play a crucial role for Leeds once again as they aim to increase their lead at the top of the Championship to five points with just 12 games left in the season.
Leeds’ Promotion Hopes Rest on Victory Against Sheffield United
At the moment, Leeds appear almost certain to secure promotion, but as is often the case in the Championship, surprises are always possible.
Daniel Farke’s team holds a seven-point lead over third-place Burnley and is 10 points ahead of Sunderland, who recently suffered a defeat at the hands of Leeds.
This is the period that can define a season, and while a loss wouldn’t be catastrophic for Leeds, it would add some tension, knowing they’d have to chase the Blades for the remainder of the campaign.
Wilder’s team still has a match against Burnley, and with one of the two teams likely to drop points, Leeds could capitalize—provided they continue winning their games.
