Sun 24 September 2023 20:15, UK

Leeds United’s Daniel Jꦉames had an excellent afternoon ▨when his side met Watford in the Championship yesterday.

The 25-year-old provided two assists and looked back♔ at tℱhe top of his game in the 3-0 win.

And via , James made four key passes, won four ground due♏ls and created three big chances.

Along with the likes of Crysencio Summerville and Georginio Rutter, James looked to be at the peak of his game.

This is a huge boost for Leeds who have been excellent under Farke since the international break.

Farke’s side now have four clean sheets in a row and their attacking quartet iꦕs finally staꦛrting to look harmonious.

Of course, fans will think that Daniel James shꦇould be performing well at this level.

James signed for Leeds for a fee of back in 20🎃21 and has looked at home in the Premier League i🍨n recent years.

And despite having frustrating periods, he ꧃should be able to consistently produce these levels in the Championship.

Leeds fans will hope t💛hat this Watford performance will be the start 🌳of an excellent run for James.

James was brilliant for Leeds against Watford

As mentioned, 𝓡Georginio R🌠utter was excellent yesterday.

And whilst the fans will be very happy to see the likes💞 of James and Summerville playing well, Rutter may be particularly pleasing.

The 21-year-old was signed under Jesse Marsch and yet n🅠ever got a real opportunity under the former manager.

Fans may then have fℱeared how Rutter would adapt to the Championship in his first full season in England.

However, Rutt꧙er’s performance yesterday is another clear example of how he is willing to take responsibility this year.

And a front four of James, Rutter, Summerville and Joel Piroe shou🍎ld be one that can edge Leeds towards promotion, as they showed against Watford.
