League.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>With early wins over <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/everton\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Everton<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/wolves\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Wolves<\/a>, the Whites are currently above the likes of <a

Forest<\/a> and 18th-place <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/west-ham-united\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">West Ham<\/a>, sitting 16th in the table after 11 games.<\/p>\n<p>Leeds have lost four of their last five matches, however, with <a

error against Forest<\/a> during a 3-1 loss at the City Ground on Sunday, 9 November.<\/p>\n<p>Despite taking the lead through <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/lukas-nmecha\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lukas Nmecha<\/a>, the Reds instantly hit back through <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/ibrahim-sangare\/\" target=\"_blank\"

rel=\"noopener\">Farke is facing serious questions from Leeds supporters<\/a>, and his record in the division is not striking confidence into the hearts of any at Elland Road.<\/p>\n<p>There was a lot of talk about the German being replaced during the summer, despite winning promotion to the Premier League, but the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/49ers-enterprises\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">49ers Enterprises<\/a> decided to stick with him for the new campaign.<\/p>\n<p>It has been suggested already that those who decided to stick with Farke could be regretting that decision, and the most recent performance shows just how out of depth the manager really is.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" loading=\"lazy\"

target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PSG<\/a> and Inter Milan during the summer, but even so, his team lacked depth at the City Ground, and that was clear by one of his substitutions in the closing stages.<\/p>\n<p>Jack Harrison completely flopped against Nottingham Forest<\/p>\n<p>Replacing <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/gabriel-gudmundsson\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gabriel Gudmundsson<\/a> at left-back, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/jack-harrison\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jack Harrison<\/a> came on for the final 10 minutes against the Tricky Trees, with Leeds hoping to inspire an unlikely comeback away from home.<\/p>\n<p>However, the move completely backfired, ignoring the fresh legs of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.footballinsider247.com\/tag\/james-justin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">James Justin<\/a> in his natural position, with the winger giving away a penalty, being dribbled past twice, and misfiring two crosses [<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fotmob.com\/en-GB\/matches\/leeds-united-vs-nottingham-forest\/2vqauu?player=751649#4813481:tab=lineup\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">FotMob<\/a>].<\/p>\n<p>It was possibly one of the worst cameos so far in the Premier League this season, but for those watching at the City Ground, very few were surprised to see Harrison struggle at full-back.<\/p>\n<p>Clearly, Farke had a real belief that it was the right decision, and that is one of the many reasons proving that he is not the man to lead the Whites forward for the rest of the 2025-26 campaign.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Credit: Imago Tue 11 November 2025 20:00, UK Daniel Farke is quickly running out of time to
