Farke Facing Embarrassing Leeds U-Turn After Trafford ‘Shocker’ vs Bournemouth

George Overhill writes that Leeds United manager Daniel Farke faces a major decision over whether to drop record-signing goalkeeper James Trafford following high-profile errors. Leeds lost 2-0 to Bournemouth on Saturday afternoon, extending their winless Premier League streak to five games after goals from Evanilson and Amine Adli.

Overhill notes that Trafford's first-half passing error gifted Bournemouth their opening goal, marking the second time this season a mistake by the £40 million summer signing contributed to a league defeat. The writer argues that dropping the marquee signing would be embarrassing for Farke and owners 49ers Enterprises, especially with backup goalkeeper Michael Zetterer having conceded six goals in his sole start.
