Jermaine Beckford says one Leeds player was ‘out of the top draw’ against Spurs
Jermaine Beckford has showered heaps of praise on Leeds United winger Raphinha. The Brazilian winger came on as a substitute during the match as Leeds won 3-1 against Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League at Elland Road on Saturday. Goals from Stuart Dallas, Patrick Bamford and Rodrigo sealed all three points for Marcelo Bielsa’s side. Raphinha, who joined in the summer transfer window, had been out of action with an injury since the 2-1 win against Manchester City last month. He returned in the second half when Leeds were leading 2-1. Raphinha provided the assist for Rodrigo for the third goal, which killed off any hopes of a potential comeback from Spurs. Beckford was full of praise for Raphinha, with the former Leeds star applauding his impact. Raphinha has been on for less than...
Leeds could be without three first team stars for this weekend’s clash against Spurs
Leeds United have been handed a triple injury blow ahead of their Premier League clash against Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday. According to the Athletic, winger Helder Costa has been ruled out for the remainder of the season with a back injury he picked up against Manchester United on March 25. Costa missed the game against Brighton & Hove Albion at the weekend, and his absence for the remainder of the season will certainly weaken the Leeds attack. The report adds that Brazilian winger Raphinha and midfielder Kalvin Phillips could also miss out on Saturday. Raphinha has been a key attacker for Leeds this season but has been sidelined since the horrendous tackle from Manchester City midfielder Fernandinho. Phillips has a knee problem, and he will be desperate to recover in time to face t...
Raphinha sends brilliant four-word message to Leeds star on Instagram after win vs Fulham
Leeds United returned to winning ways by beating Fulham 2-1 in the Premier League on Friday night. Patrick Bamford, who was not picked by Gareth Southgate for the latest England squad, scored one and provided the other, as Leeds earned all three points.

The Cottagers equalised before half-time through defender Joachim Andersen who volleyed in from Ademola Lookman’s corner. However, Leeds once again took the lead after Raphinha beat two defenders before poking home. England midfielder Kalvin Phillips was outstanding against Fulham. He made 13 ball recoveries during the game and was equally brilliant with his passing. Phillips took to social network...
