Leeds United winger Raphinha has admitted his frustration at not being able to replicate the club’s first season back in the Premier League second time around. The Whites earned a superb ninth place finish during their first top-flight campaign since 2004 but have struggled to hit the same heights this time around.
Leeds sit 17 th in the table heading into the final four matches of the season and face a real fight to remain in the division. Just two points separate themselves and the bottom three, which is set to make for a nervy end to the campaign.
In an interview with Stadium Astro, Raphinha believes a lot of their struggles has been down to the sheer volume of injuries that has hit them hard for almost the entirety of the season.
