Alan Shearer has backed Leeds United attacker Rodrigo Moreno to beat his goal tally from last season after his red-hot start to the new campaign. Rodrigo has netted three times in the opening two matches, which is already half of what he managed in the whole of last term.
The 31-year-old found the back of the net just six times in the 2021/22 campaign, in what was a difficult year for the Spain international. Rodrigo, though, has picked up where he left off during pre-season in front of goal.
He scored four goals in five matches during the summer, which has seen him come into his third year at Elland Road full of confidence. After putting Leeds 2-0 up at St. Mary’s, Rodrigo must’ve thought he had done enough to earn a second consecutive win of the season.
