Lessons need to be learned at Leeds United right from the very top after a chastening nine months in the Premier League. The early signs in this transfer window would suggest they are making amends and looking to prevent the same glaring issues which dogged 2021/22.
The speed of Victor Orta’s work in the transfer market is one thing. Whether you are excited by the personnel being recruited or not, the director of football cannot be knocked for giving his new charges as much time as possible to acclimatise before the real work restarts.
There is no harm in being seen to react quickly to a poor season either. Again, time will tell how well these new players perform, but Orta, Jesse Marsch, Angus Kinnear and co are at least working proactively to swiftly put 21/22 behind them.
