Leeds United boast one of the most devastating attacks in the Championship on paper - but how does it compare to their promotion rivals?
The transfer window is now slammed shut, meaning the Whites can put all uncertainty behind them and focus on the task at hand: promotion. Wilfried Gnonto enjoyed a bright start to the campaign but had his head turned in the final weeks of the summer.
Joel Piroe’s arrival late in the window should bolster Leeds’ options, with the Dutchman scoring more goals than anyone else over the previous two Championship campaigns. Throw Crycensio Summerville and record signing Georginio Rutter into the mix and you have the making of a devastating second-tier attack.
Jamie Vardy’s role is now reserved for the bench, with Kelechi Iheanacho the preferred option. Keeping ahold of Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall gives Leicester a potent Championship attack.Preston North End Will Keane has got off to a flyer in 2023-24, scoring four goals to fire Preston into the promotion places. Duane Holmes and Mads Frokjaer-Jensen have been the creative force behind him in a 3-4-2-1 setup.
As expected, Adam Armstrong and Che Adams have enjoyed fine starts to the season and most of their promotion hopes hinge on them. Marginally better than Leeds, but not by much.Norwich City Wideman Jonathan Rowe has been the pick of the bunch for a side sitting top of the Championship’s goalscoring charts. David Wagner has Norwich looking fluid in a 4-2-3-1 system, led by United States international Josh Sargent.
