OPINION

Leeds United parted ways with manager Thomas Christiansen on Sunday night and there have been several players that have underperformed during his reign.

The 44-year-old lasted eight months at the Elland Road helm and has now been sacked with the club seven points adrift of the play-off positions.

Christiansen has seen the Whites suffer a poor start to 2018 which has ultimately seen him lose his job.

The Yorkshire giants are now on the search for his replacement and will hope a new man can help reignite a promotion bid in the remaining 16 league games.

Leeds suffered a heavy 4-1 home defeat against Cardiff at the weekend to seal Christiansen’s fate and the club’s next match is away to Sheffield United on Saturday.

They had looked real promotion candidates in the early stages of the campaign, but will now need to spark a good run of form to make the top six.

This Is Futbol has highlighted three Leeds players that have ultimately flopped under Christiansen, which includes a 26-year-old that has failed to reach his best standards.
