Daniel James Not Ready To Repeat Old Mistakes At Leeds United

Daniel James Not Ready To Repeat Old Mistakes At Leeds United

Daniel James has revealed he's not going to repeat his mistakes done at Manchester in his new challenge at Leeds United.

The pacey winger admitted that he sometimes played too “safe” during his time at Manchester United and has promised not to repeat same at Leeds United. 

James completed a £30 million transfer on deadline day to Leeds United as he looks forward to begin a new chapter of his career under Marcelo Bielsa.

"I think everyone goes through part of their career where you don’t realise something is happening until you look back and have good people around you to analyse that,” he told The Telegraph.

“I started thinking, ‘What does he do that I can do?’ rather than thinking just about my game and being myself. It got to the point where I was being a bit safe in games.

“I got bought for my direct play, running in behind, running with the ball, trying things and not being afraid to lose the ball but slowly I started to come away from that and play a little safe.

“When I stepped back it was remembering to be direct, to be that person. Safe is dangerous in the position I play.

“You’re not there to do that - you’re there to score goals and make assists and run yourself into the ground on and off the ball.” 

The Wales international started on a brigther note under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer as he scored 3 goals in his first four games at the start of the 2019/20 season but failed to keep same feat. 

James was involved in just 9 goals and nine assists in 74 appearances across all competitions for the Red Devils .

Manchester United signed James from Swansea City in 2019 for a fee believed to be in the region of £15 million.
