Leeds United’s offensive brilliance is still to come, according to Joel Piroe’s “deadly” admission

On Wednesday, Leeds United defeated Swansea City 3-1 thanks to goals from Dan James, Georginio Rutter, and Joel Piroe.

Leeds United is still developing into the team they know they can be, so their best is yet to come. Joel Piroe, who scored the Whites’ seventh goal of the year on Wednesday night at Elland Road to help them get back to winning ways, says as much.

With Leicester City, the league leaders, dropping points on the same night, Leeds is still very much in the driver’s seat after their victory, which moved Daniel Farke’s team back up to third in the Championship table. Since Piroe had left to join Leeds in the summer, it was only natural that the night would be special for him as he faced his former team, Swansea.

After Swansea had taken the lead early in the game, the Dutchman leveled the score four minutes in. Georginio Rutter and Dan James, a former Swan, then added goals to complete a second straight home victory.

Leeds took the necessary risks on the evening, and Piroe is pleased with the results the West Yorkshire team has achieved this season thus far. Though the striker thinks Leeds can get even better as the busy holiday season approaches, there’s still room for improvement.

Regarding the draw with Rotherham United last week, Piroe stated, “Of course, we wanted to bounce back and go back to winning ways and I think it’s the perfect reaction, not perfect but a very good reaction.” “It was somewhat unique before the game.

“You’re going to recognize some faces. It felt a little strange to play against them after spending two fantastic seasons with them. But ultimately, all we want is to win games.”

“We’re a little disappointed that we didn’t get the clean sheet, but we’re glad we wasted our chances and we just want to move on at this point. I’ve settled in nicely and am really content here.

“I think that’s working better every day, guys. We know what we want from each other and are starting to really understand each other.” Although we are creating enough opportunities and I believe we are headed in the right direction, I still believe we can produce more and be more lethal.

Piroe has been asked to play a little bit deeper for Leeds than Swansea fans were accustomed to, but in the past few months, he has solidified relationships with Dan James, Georgino Rutter, and Crysencio Summerville.

“It’s fun,” he continued. “We’re just building it and building it to help the attacking players get the most out of each other. I try to fill it as best I can and work with Georgi, but it’s not just about the two of us.”
