Tyler Adams has travelled to Thailand to enjoy some well-deserved time off before re-focusing his attention on club football with Leeds United, with the aim of finding consistent enough form in the second half of the Premier League season to avoid relegation.
Impressive wins over Chelsea and Liverpool stand out when reviewing Leeds’ results from the 14 matches in the first half of the season before the World Cup break, but these two victories are not a true reflection of their campaign. It can perhaps be better summed up with their two most recent results, a 4-3 home win to Bournemouth, before a defeat of the same score line away to Tottenham Hotspur, who have also struggled with consistency.
But then came the World Cup and welcomed break for both Adams and his Leeds and United States teammate, Brenden Aaronson.
