|Failed plan as Leeds cancel half of the contentious deal early to Leeds Battle with Bournemouth for
the benefits of Jaidon Anthony’s struggles for opportunities while on loan at
Bournemouth, Leeds United does not intend to send him back this month, according to Phil Hay.
When asked on The Square Ball on January 19 about the wide player’s immediate future, The Athletic’s Whites
correspondent stated that the team did not plan to terminate the player’s season-long contract early.
Anthony showed up at Elland Road as part of the contentious transfer that sent Luis Sinisterra in the other direction late
on transfer deadline day. Angus Kinnear was clearly not happy about the move, which was forced by the Colombian and his agent [Square Ball, 7 September].
Hay (38 years old) stated: “Yes, it was the intention to keep him, and he’s still involved. Both the selection process and
the pecking order have been extremely strict. Not a significant amount of rotation has occurred.
He’s the kind of player who, given enough games, could go on a tear and
become very good. I believe he finds it difficult to have an influence in the limited opportunities he has
But certainly, there are many Leeds teams that I can think of where he would have had a chance to play.”
Dan James and Crysencio Summerville are so good
this season that it is nearly hard to bench them for anything other than resting them.
One of the few notable criticisms leveled against Daniel Farke’s leadership at
Leeds United thus far this season has been his unwillingness to rotate in order
to prevent burnout, which has caused Anthony and Willy Gnonto to lose
prominence behind the starting duo of wingers.
With most of his 19 league appearances coming in the closing minutes of games,
the 24-year-old Cherries player has had far fewer starts in the Championship than he would have liked.
However, letting players go without having backups ready would be a big
risk given how slowly transfer activity has been this month.
When Farke decided to terminate Djed Spence’s Tottenham loan early in the
New Year, he took a risk that was later exacerbated by Luke Ayling’s departure.
Thus, there doesn’t seem to be much reason to leave gaps further forward if
there aren’t any arrivals prepared to fill them, with full-back already a priority during a challenging window.
