Afrer three seasons in top flight,Leeds United have been relegated to EFL Championship on Sunday after finishing 19th in the league table.They had to win against Totenhum Hotspurs at Home,but they lost 4-1 on Sunday which confirmed their relegation.The question is,do they deserve to be relegated? If u ask me,I will say yes,because they have been abysmal this season.THE only saving grace has been 2-1 win at Anfield.Coach Jesse Marsch was sacked in February after defeat against Nottingham forest.
Javi Garcia was hired to save them from relegation.He started on a note of optimism,with 1-0 win over Southampton,2-2 draw against Brighton and Holves Albion and 4-2 win against Wolves.He collected 7 points from his first three games.However after that he only won once, a 2-1 win against Nottingham Forest at home. He lost 5-1 and 6-1 to Crystal Palace and Liverpool at home,conceding 11 goals in just 2 matches.
After that they claimed only a point in 3 games before Javi was sacked and Sam Allardyce was brought in to save them from relegation. He failed and he could get only 1 point,a 2-2 draw against Newcastle United at home,and their relegation was confirmed.Their leaky defence also conceded 78 goals in all 38 games,and scored 48 goals and they finished in 19th position.So due to their poor strike force and defence, they were relegated.
